Karunesh Dey — Founder
From Google and Airbnb to building my own — this is what 10 years in the industry looks like. I'm Karunesh Dey, Founder of Sahoda Labs, an AI-powered digital marketing agency helping brands grow through sharp content strategy, organic social media, and storytelling that actually converts. But Sahoda Labs is only part of the story. I'm also a Director at Altruix Digital, an active investor in early-stage ventures such as Upcreatorz and MiniPix, and have led special projects for consumer brands such as Urban Platter. My career has taken me from managing ad accounts at Google to trust & safety operations at Airbnb to co-founding Basecamp — and now to building systems that help other brands win. I bring a rare combination to the table: the rigour of working inside globally scaled organisations, and the hunger of someone who has chosen to build from scratch. What I focus on today: → Growing Sahoda Labs and its client portfolio → Backing founders and ideas I believe in → Helping brands cut through noise with content that's grounded in strategy If you're a brand looking for a marketing partner, a founder open to a conversation, or someone building in the digital/creator economy — let's connect. 📍 Delhi NCR | Open to client partnerships & investment conversations
