    Goral Ajmera, Senior Executive Creative Director, Grey has been invited to be on the Grand Jury of the New York Festivals 2014.

     

    The Grand Jury judging will take place in two stages during March and April. In the first stage, Ajmera will join a 10-person panel to judge a portion of the entries. During the second stage, the entire panel will review all the entries that made the cut and advanced from the first round, and will determine which entries advance to the Shortlist.

     

    On being invited to the Grand Jury, Goral said “NYF is clearly an award show that has evolved with the changing times. New categories, new judging process and now, newly designed trophies created by Sagmeister & Walsh. I am truly excited and honoured to be a part of an eclectic jury from across 70 countries.”

     

    Ajmera has been in the advertising industry for 14 years. After successful stints with Enterprise Nexus, Leo Burnett, Ogilvy and JWT, she is now leading the team in Mumbai as Senior Executive Creative Director, along with her partner Vishnu Srivatsav. Over the years, she has created forward-looking campaigns on a wide portfolio of brands like Reliance, Killer, Lux, Sunsilk, Dove, Ponds, Timespro, Ferrero, Bajaj Allianz, Femina, Vimal, Set Max and Parle.

    Grey’s National Creative Directors Malvika Mehra and Amit Akali have announced the promotion of Vishnu Srivatsav and Goral Ajmera to Senior Executive Creative Directors. Together, Goral and Vishnu will be heading the creative team in Grey Mumbai and report to them directly.

     

    Said Malvika Mehra: “It’s always feels great to be able to promote talent from within. And both Vishnu and Goral are as ‘homegrown’ as you can get. Vishnu’s been with Grey for over 10 years, while Goral was probably one of the first people we hired when we joined Grey. Their relentless pursuit to do better work, their hunger to shoulder responsibility, their ‘can do’ attitude and their immense talent made them an obvious choice for the job.”

     

    Between them, at Grey, the two have helped build many brands; Reliance Mobile, IndianOil, Honda Brio, DHL, Duracell, Britannia, Bajaj Allianz Insurance, Bharti AXA Insurance, Suzlon, Vimal, Muthoot Finance, Killer, Kinderjoy, 3M, Dell and Times Pro. And their work has won awards including, The One Show, London International Awards, World Press Awards, Young Guns, Spikes Asia, Adfest, Abby, Emvies and 1 Gold and 2 Bronze Lions at Cannes, this year.

     

    Added Amit Akali: “Goral and Vishnu have their task cut out. Last year was a good year for Grey Mumbai, with the office accounting for a lot of our awards; The Goa Fest Grand Prix for Killer and our 3 metal haul at Cannes. Businesswise too it’s been great; we won Times Pro and Tea Board, amongst others. Now, all they need to do is better it. No pressure!”
