Dhiraj Singh — CEO
I have a rich and varied experience in the media industry, having worked in top print, TV and digital media companies. I am passionate about producing high-quality content be it via films, new media or advertising. As Deputy Dean, Times School of Media & Head, Centre for Media & Technology at Bennett University, I help build futures for students in media, advertising, films and communication. Before this I was Associate Dean & Director of MIT-World Peace University's Dadasaheb Phalke International Film School and Department of Media and Communication, where I launched several new programmes in advertising, films, PR and more. I am also an award-winning journalist, Salis Mania best author of the year 2023, and artist, with a unique perspective on media education and innovation. I launched the country's first-ever Journalism for Peace Awards, which recognize and celebrate the role of media in promoting peace and harmony. I have also co-founded an arts and culture web channel, Hunar-TV, and served as the Executive Director of Lok Sabha Television, where I was responsible for programming and content. I have published several books, articles, and documentaries, and exhibited my abstract art works in various galleries and events. I believe in using words, art, and design to tackle problems of digital clutter and to communicate effectively and creatively.
