Nikhilesh Raghu — Co-Founder
I have sat on every side of the digital advertising table. I started in media agency — learning how campaigns are planned, how budgets are justified, and how the gap between what a plan promises and what actually delivers gets quietly accepted as normal. From there I moved into digital consulting, ad networks, and eventually programmatic technology — running APAC operations for one of the world's leading independent DSPs, working across India, Southeast Asia, Singapore and Korea with some of the region's largest brands and agencies. Every role gave me a different lens on the same problem. Programmatic had matured. Creative hadn't kept pace. Supply was abundant but rarely curated. Audience strategies existed but were applied generically — not built for the market or the consumer in front of them. So I have started building Animmoov. Animmoov is a programmatic advertising solutions company built around the gaps I spent 15 years watching the industry work around. We help brands and agencies across India and SEA with three things: Creative that performs — Rich Media, DCO, and immersive formats for CTV, mobile, desktop and DOOH; Supply that is curated before it reaches the planner — premium, brand-safe, geography-specific inventory that removes the manual optimisation burden; and Audience strategy built for the market, not applied generically across it. We also measure what the industry consistently undervalues — brand lift, recall and consideration — because performance metrics alone have never told the full story. If you work in brand marketing, media planning or adtech — and you recognise any of these gaps — let's talk. Open to discussions on: Programmatic · CTV · Rich Media · DCO · Supply Curation · Audience Strategy · Brand Lift · Partnerships
