Mumbai: Social Beat, a digital growth partner for leading brands across verticals, announced today the appointment of Ashish Tambe as national creative director. Ashish was previously with FCB Kinnect and comes with a proven track record of delivering several award-winning campaigns, including at Cannes, Clios and the One Show.

A microbiologist by qualification, he was en route to making a German laboratory his home when the world of stories, ideas, and brand strategies beckoned. Joining as the first creative resource, he went on to help build one of the well-known digital agencies in the country. He has experience in crafting pathbreaking creative strategies, campaigns and uplifting brand stories for many brands over the last ten years.

Speaking on his appointment, Social Beat co-founder Suneil Chawla said, “I am delighted to welcome Ashish Tambe to Social Beat, and look forward to creating effective as well as award-winning digital campaigns with him and the team. Ashish’s extensive experience and proven track record of success will add to our proven capability to drive business outcomes and win awards in the process.”

Commenting on his appointment, Ashish Tambe said, “I am eager to contribute to the growth of Social Beat with cutting-edge creativity that will enable clients to grow their business. Social Beat has been a pioneer in digital marketing and has had several remarkable achievements to their name, and I am thrilled to be joining the team and growing along with them.”

Ashish believes that the best creatives hinge on the smallest nuances, and believes thinking inside the box is the key to successful campaigns that benefit brands. When not thinking about work, he spends time working out to compensate for his love for fried food and sweet desserts.
