Rutu Mody-Kamdar, PhD — Co-Founder
An academician turned consultant, now running a strategic branding agency, I have always enjoyed the multiple hats I've worn. My interests (teaching, research & consulting) have been complementary in nature and have helped me carve out a distinct space for my organisation-Jigsaw which I set up in 2016. We are deep-rooted in our discipline, with a very strong and sound understanding of brands, behavior and business. Jigsaw as the name suggests is a coming together of all the disciplines that help in building a brand. From consumer research and insight mining to strategic brand planning, design and communication, I set up Jigsaw with a motive to assimilate all the aspects of branding under a single roof. Apart from this, I enjoy writing, speaking and teaching. Most of which I try and do quite regularly through forums, publications and b-schools. If you're interested in the world of branding, consumer behaviour, culture or design and you'd like to speak with me, do drop me a line on rutu@jigsawbrands.com and we can catch up over a cup of coffee :)
