Vineet Bajpai, Founder and CEO of Magnon Group and Omnicom Production (India), articulated the summit’s significance: “We’re at a point where the way brands connect with audiences is being fundamentally reimagined, and events like IIBS offer a front-row view of that shift. What excites me most is how open the ecosystem has become to experimentation and collaboration. IIBS goes beyond talks and panels—it sparks real conversations that help shape the future of marketing and storytelling. We’re proud to have supported this platform from the beginning and to continue standing alongside the leaders driving what comes next.”
