“His commitment, drive and passion to MediaCom, his team and clients has been exemplary. I know that he will be missed and on behalf of all of us at MediaCom and I’d like to wish Pinaki the very best for the future. We are beyond thrilled for him and his new role at one of the world’s most prominent brand marketers.” Added Mark
