The Advertising Club, at its managing committee meeting following the AGM, unanimously decided to promote Bipin R Pandit as the chief operating officer of the club.

The club follows the ritual of holding a managing committee meeting immediately after the AGM every year, which was done this year too. Post handling the items on the structured agenda the committee under the presidentship of Shashi Sinha unanimously decided to promote Bipin R Pandit as the Chief Operating Officer of the Ad Club.

Mr Pandit had joined the Ad Club in 1998 and during his tenure he has been successively promoted from executive secretary to manager, general manager, and now Chief Operating Officer.

Mr Pandit said, “I am thankful to the entire managing committee and our president Shashi Sinha in particular for the promotion. They are not only supportive of the ideas and suggestions that I give, they encourage me to implement them. I have always loved doing new things or to do existing things in a new way. I love challenges and with this elevation there will be many in store.

“We are not a club that does only awards, it has given a great deal back to the industry – from sending students to Cannes, Spikes etc, to holding case study presentations, organizing evening meetings with international speakers, and holding educational workshops.”
