Tony Shergill (Gursevak) — CEO
For over two decades, I’ve been dedicated to amplifying the cultural identity and voice of the British Asian community. I launched the world’s first Sikh television channel and now proudly lead BritAsia TV – the UK’s largest platform for British Asians – spanning television, radio, and a digital academy. BritAsia showcases global talent, music, and cultural influence while also investing in future generations through our Academy, which provides creative and digital skills training. Most recently, I launched the BritAsia Fund – an initiative that empowers entrepreneurs with the tools, strategy, and guidance to turn their ideas into long-term, sustainable businesses.
