We are a multidisciplinary creative studio that specialises in B2B brand communication.
Think pink. The magenta story.
Armed with a couple of suitcases and two small children, co-founders Mark and Munni swapped London for Mumbai in 2009. In search of adventure, they saw India as an exciting market, rich with opportunity. Their vision was to start a creative business that could provide communications support to ambitious companies moving into the Asian market and Indian companies building an international footprint.
The name ‘magenta’ was chosen as a counterweight to the sea of blue that traditionally envelops the corporate world! Our mission is to bring a splash of colour and a dash of fresh thinking to the world of corporate communications.
In the past decade, magenta has worked with leading business houses on large-scale initiatives including M&A and entry into new markets. In-bound investors value our blend of international best practice and local capabilities.
The work, we take seriously. Ourselves, not so much.
