He recounted the unlikely accident of how with an engineering degree he landed up in the media agency and thanked all those who shaped his journey including his predecessors at GroupM.
Congratulating Srinivas, industry leaders, including Rajan Anandan, MD Google India, Uday Shankar, Chairman and CEO, Star India, Sanjiv Mehta, CEO and MD, Hindustan Unilever, Sam Balsara, Chairman and MD Madison world, and Raj Nayak, COO Viacom18, and winner of the 2016 exchange4media Influencer of the Year award said unanimously that Srivasas' win is very well-deserved.
