Akshat Jain — CEO
For over a decade, I worked with words and ideas, writing for publications like Down To Earth and The Leaflet, editing 200+ reports, working with NGOs in Bhopal and Mumbai, filming in Afghanistan, and translating world literature into Hindi. That journey taught me how stories shape the world. Some stories are written down, some are lived and some are built, brick by brick, or in my case, surface by surface. Today, I’m at Specta Quartz Surfaces, helping grow a young brand backed by decades of manufacturing experience. My role in communication and marketing is really about one thing: telling a story that connects people to what we’re building. While I come from a traditional business family, my work over the last decade has been elsewhere. I come from a place of listening, observing and asking questions. And I bring that with me here. This space is for me to keep learning, sharing and connecting with people who believe in the power of stories, business and communication to create something meaningful.
