MUMBAI: Since inception, Indiantelevision.com has always attempted to sincerely engage with India’s media and entertainment industry in a bid to offer innovative content and broaden the scope for dialogue. Extending this endeavor to a key sphere of the ecosystem, Indiantelevision.com is now putting together its first-ever Media HR Summit in partnership with ZEE, the title sponsor for the conclave.
Media HR Summit intends to delve deep into the challenges that India’s M&E industry faces today and understand how corporate and HR leaders are steering their companies into the future as they seek to attract, develop and retain talent. ZEE, one of India’s biggest and most sought after employers, coming on board as the main partner further highlights the importance of this initiative and bolsters its credibility.
“The Indian Media & Entertainment Industry is at an inflection point where convergence, consolidation and technological innovations are reshaping all parts of the M&E value chain. The oft repeated cliché “what got us here, won’t get us there”, has never been more relevant. Talent capability & availability both are amongst the biggest challenges we need to address to successfully navigate the emerging landscape. It is imperative that we build and retain a workforce that is ready for a generational shift in skills. We are proud to partner with Indiantelevision.com’s 1st Media HR Summit that aims to address these challenges and help HR leaders across sectors to share thoughts and perspectives on building a dynamic workplace in a digitally transformative world,” Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited chief people officer Animesh Kumar said.
Media HR Summit, which is scheduled to take place on 26 June at The Westin in Mumbai, aims to tackle key themes like culture and chemistry, emerging trends in HR, employee engagement models, building equity in the workplace, empowering a network of leaders, future-focused people strategies and changing the nature of employment.
The conclave features a stellar line of speakers and leaders that have shaped some of India’s finest organisations. With participation from broadcasters, production houses, brands, media agencies and joint industry bodies, the Media HR Summit 2019 boasts representation across the M&E spectrum.
Animesh Kumar, Discovery Communications India MD south Asia Megha Tata, MullenLowe Lintas Group’s HR director Heather Saville Gupta and Publicis’ head human resource Nikhil Natekar among others are some of the senior executives that will offer their perspective on the current landscape through panel discussions, fireside chats and presentations.
