Commenting on the creative win, Hari Krishnan, CEO, Mullen Lintas said, “Insurance is a highly regulated category and, therefore, new products & innovations are somewhat infrequent. However, Future Generali has been disrupting the category with great product and service level innovations and, hence, to partner such a brand, is an exciting challenge for all of us. We look forward to re-defining category codes and changing the way consumers evaluate general insurance products. 

What’s even more satisfying is that this is a win for our integrated, hyper-bundled approach, wherein we will collaborate with our social and advocacy agency, Lintas Live, in this journey, to take the Future Generali brand journey forward.”
