Goa: After a distinguished two-decade career in journalism and public relations, Misbah Quadri has announced the launch of her new venture, MQ Media (MQM). Positioned as Goa’s first seaside media agency, MQM is founded on the principles of honesty and integrity, offering an alternative to the growing prevalence of paid reviews and hollow narratives in the communications space.
Fully bootstrapped and women-led, MQ Media is driven by Quadri’s personal investment and commitment to building an agency that prioritizes authenticity. The launch is marked by the acquisition of its first physical office space in Morjim, North Goa — a symbolic step underscoring the agency’s permanent commitment to its mission and the local entrepreneurial community.
Focused on working with authentic brands and entrepreneurs who may lack massive marketing budgets, MQ Media believes in aligning online narratives with offline actions. The agency rejects performative change and instead champions storytelling rooted in tangible impact.
“I am building this empire alone, through doubt, savings, and sheer will,” says Misbah Quadri, Founder of MQ Media. “This is for the brands that walk their talk, just like I strive to do. MQM is for those who believe that powerful, grounded work can still triumph in a noisy world. We speak the language of slow, steady, and soulful growth.”
Quadri’s ethos of leading by example is reflected in her longstanding involvement in initiatives like the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan and feeding the less privileged with the Robin Hood Army. With MQ Media, she extends this principle to her professional offering, shaping PR and media strategies that are both impactful and grounded in reality.
The official launch of MQ Media will be celebrated on September 9, 2025, at 6 PM at its Morjim office. The event will bring together members of the media, marketing professionals, and entrepreneurs for an evening of networking and collaboration by the sea.
