Creativeland Asia appoints Divya Agarwal as Chief Strategy Officer

Creativeland Asia (CLA) has appointed Divya Agarwal as Chief Strategy Officer. Agarwal will also head Crossbow Insights, Creativeland Asia’s research and consumer insights division.

Agarwal has previously led marquee brands at agencies like Ogilvy, Leo Buenett, McCann, Edelman, and others, and worked with Tata Group companies. 

"I am excited to be a part of Creativeland Asia Network and lead the strategy and research functions. This is a unique company with a strong culture of creative strategy. On one axis is technology and innovation, and on another, a little bit of spirituality and an Indic ethos. Then there's everything else in between. I’m as excited as I’m intrigued. I look forward to building these further.

It's more imperative today than ever to map the multiplicities we live in and connect the right dots. The traditional formats of structured thinking need to compete with (and complement) unstructured ways of seeing. I'm keen to do that and solve problems for brands and unlock new ways to drive impact for our brands, business and people," says Divya Agarwal, Chief Strategy Officer, Creativeland Asia.

“Creativeland Asia’s primary area of focus has always been about crafting compelling stories and building strong brand narratives for clients. Our strategy department’s diverse experience and integrated thinking prowess coupled with Crossbow Insights’ field experience in India becomes a potent combination to unlock newer, diverse, and disruptive creativity for our clients.

Divya’s appointment reflects our commitment to this vision. She’s a seasoned strategist, who profoundly understands human behaviour and the market, and we are excited to have her onboard,” says Sajan Raj Kurup, Founder and Chairman, Creativeland Asia.
