I got to know Ankur and his team and was further impressed by their larger-than-life passion to “design a better India”. When Ankur suggested coming on board as an advisor, I saw it as not only an opportunity to stay engaged with the industry I have been a part of since 1998 but also a chance to be a part of a movement to push Indian design and UX standards to a global level and beyond.
