Hybrid India announces leadership transition for future growth

Hybrid India today reaffirmed its long-term commitment to the Indian market, announcing a leadership transition as part of the company’s continued evolution and growth strategy.

The company confirmed that its India operations continue without interruption. All client engagements, agency partnerships, ongoing campaigns are proceeding as planned, supported by Hybrid’s experienced leadership team and regional management.

As CEO & Managing Director, Shreyas Sathe will continue leading Hybrid’s growth across India and Southeast Asia, driving the company’s strategic vision, strengthening client partnerships and accelerating expansion initiatives. Hybrid remains focused on delivering long-term value to brands and agencies while continuing to invest in innovation, technology and talent.

Hybrid also confirmed that Gandharv Sachdeva has concluded his tenure with the company. The company thanks him for his contribution during an important phase of Hybrid India’s journey and wishes him success in his future endeavors.

Commenting on the transition, Sergey Kovalev, Global CEO, Hybrid said, “As Hybrid continues to scale globally, the needs of the business naturally evolve. Building a company from the ground up requires a different leadership approach than scaling an established organization with larger teams, broader operations and increasingly ambitious strategic objectives. We are grateful for Gandharv’s contribution during Hybrid India’s formative years and sincerely appreciate the role he played in building the business. As we enter our next phase of growth, our focus is on strengthening operational excellence, accelerating innovation and executing our long-term global strategy across the region.

Shreyas Sathe, CEO & Managing Director, Hybrid INSEA, added, India remains one of Hybrid’s most important strategic markets globally and continues to be a key driver of our long-term growth. We have a strong leadership team, an exceptional group of professionals and a clear roadmap for the future. We remain fully committed to delivering outstanding value to our clients, agency partners and employees. With continued investment in technology, talent and strategic partnerships, we are confident in our ability to build on this momentum and drive the next phase of sustainable growth across the region.”

Hybrid continues to invest in AI-driven advertising technologies that help brands capture consumer attention more effectively across digital channels. The company is expanding its capabilities across programmatic advertising, contextual intelligence, AI Vision, connected TV and advanced creative solutions, while deepening strategic partnerships with leading advertisers and agencies.

With a strong foundation, experienced regional leadership and a clear long-term vision, Hybrid is well positioned to accelerate its next phase of growth in India and across Southeast Asia.
