From elevating how our consumers and customers experience our platform to ensuring resilience and continuity during critical business phases, their work has truly moved the needle. What stood out was not just what they achieved, but how they achieved it – through bold decisions, cross-functional collaboration, and a relentless focus on outcomes. Along the way, they have strengthened teams, built capability, and raised the bar for what excellence looks like at REA India. As part of the felicitation, our CEO, Praveen Sharma, presented the awards, followed by an engaging interaction where winners shared insights from their journeys - the challenges, the choices, and the thinking that powered their success.

Praveen Sharma reposted thisPraveen Sharma reposted thisWe’re excited to announce that 3D property visualisation technology, iGUIDE, is now officially available in Australia following our 61.5% acquisition of Planitar Inc. last year. iGUIDE is a proprietary camera and software platform that, with a single capture, transforms property marketing and visualisation by delivering immersive 3D virtual tours, accurate floor plans and site plans, and room-by-room walkthroughs with precise measurements. iGUIDE Virtual Tours are now fully integrated into realestate.com.au featuring intelligent room shortcuts that let buyers jump straight to the spaces that matter most. For Australian photographers this means delivering more value from the work they're already doing. One capture, multiple professional outputs, streamlined delivery. For agents, it means buyers arrive at inspections already understanding the layout. The enquiries are more qualified. The conversations are clearer. And for buyers? More confidence, earlier.

Praveen Sharma liked thisPraveen Sharma liked this💥 25,000 subscribers on the Vitrina YouTube channel. Doubled, every month, for four months straight! Sincere confession - I did not expect that. Our channel is B2B content for a specialist corner of media and entertainment: film financing, TV production commissioning, IP trends, new models for monetizing video content, and the tech breakthroughs reshaping how the video industry works. Not exactly built for reach or followers surge. Four months later, the numbers have kept doubling. Here's what's driving it: 1️⃣ Our #LeaderSpeak Podcast interviews that found tens of thousands of viewers this year, with Philipp Manderla (Red Bull Studios GmbH), Tanu-Matti Tuominen and Andrea Scarso (IPR.VC), Julie Meldal-Johnsen (ITV Studios), Mike Beale (ITV Studios), Sean Atkins of Dhar Mann Studios, Andy McNamara (Cinesite), and more. 2️⃣ Member Private Briefing clips: whether that's briefings on new models on equity financing for films, or Micro-Series/Micro-Drama Monetization briefing or the Financing Playbook for Independent Content Creators - all part of our weekly member briefings to Vitrina's paid members. We have a few select clips shared on YouTube. 3️⃣ Iconic M&E Deals, a weekly show where we analyze impact of major or breakthrough deals in entertainment: our read on microseries monetization innovation, and on the M&A and partnership moves from Sony, Warner Bros. Discovery, Fox, Netflix and more. None of it works without the guests who sat down with me on the record. [Philipp Manderla, Tanu-Matti Tuominen, Andrea Scarso, Julie Meldal-Johnsen, Andy McNamara, Sean Atkins, Edward Galton, Mike Beale, UCHE OKOCHA, a.m.p, Sunil Joy, Raymond Mansfield, Isaac Palmer, Rolla Karam, Juan-Manuel Guimerans, Larry Cutler, Garson Foos] This is where the parts of the industry that usually stay behind closed doors are starting to show up. 150,000 of you get our newsletters and reports. If you're not already subscribed to the YouTube channel, now's a good time. 👉 Check out the Vitrina A.I. channel on YouTube: https://lnkd.in/gMnQuFcN

I've worked across Turkiye, APAC & MENA, and lived in Istanbul, Singapore, and Dublin. But the biggest "status updates" happened outside the office: becoming a father, husband, blogger, lecturer, author and podcaster! Thank you to Google for the experiences, and a massive thank you to all the amazing Googlers & Xooglers I’ve met over the years.

Praveen Sharma liked thisPraveen Sharma liked thisHousing.com just shipped a new feature. The ad film for it? Made entirely with AI. Zero shoot. New in the app — Price Trends & Locality Comparison. If you're buying a home, you can now compare neighbourhoods and see how prices are moving before you make the biggest financial decision of your life. A real product launch, running in the real Housing.com app, for a real feature buyers are using today. The film was conceptualized, directed, and produced with AI video generation. Every frame. Every voice. Every scene. No stock. No shoot. No creative agency turnaround. This is what happens when the pipeline stops being a proof-of-concept and becomes production. 60% faster. Multiple assets a month. The gap between "AI can do this" and "AI is doing this in production" is where the next 12 months of creative leadership will be decided. I'm on the production side of that gap. ▶️ Watch. Then go compare your city. #AIFilmmaking #ProductLaunch #GenerativeAI #CreativeLeadership

Praveen Sharma liked thisPraveen Sharma liked this#WeekendVibes This morning, while booking a badminton court to play with my daughter, I found myself reconnecting with an old colleague Manish Jain who has done something many of us dream about but few have the courage to pursue. Following his passion for racquet sports, he has built Sportslane Arena a company that caters into a fantastic facility where people can come together to play, learn and enjoy the game. He built this alongside his corporate commitments. Seeing him instantly took me back to our very first meeting many years ago when we were laying the foundations of BT’s Global operations in India. We were a small team with a big ambition, trying to build something that, at the time, seemed incredibly bold. Congratulations on building something so special. Wishing you and Sportslane every success in the years ahead. It was great to reconnect. PS. Badminton with my daughter was pretty good too! 🏸🏸 #Weekend #Sports #Fun

Praveen Sharma liked thisPraveen Sharma liked thisYesterday is being called the biggest single day in AI this year. A new frontier model, a 2.8-trillion-parameter open release, and the first published evidence of recursive self-improvement — all within 24 hours. I've lived through platform shifts before. 14 years at Google as mobile remade advertising. Then Coinbase through crypto's manias and winters, including taking the company public in the middle of one. Here's what those years taught me: value is never created at the peak of the noise. The teams that won weren't the ones reacting to every launch. They were the ones who picked a durable customer problem and compounded against it, quarter after quarter, while everyone else changed direction. That's why, when we started Ema in 2023, we made an unfashionable bet: models would keep leapfrogging each other, so we refused to marry one. EmaFusion combines many models and routes each task to the one that does it best. Days like yesterday don't threaten our roadmap — they upgrade it overnight. The founders I worry about are the ones rewriting their strategy every time a lab ships. Markets reward conviction, not reflexes. In a week when everything changed, ask yourself what didn't. That's where you build. #EmaFusion Ema #FutureOfWork

2025 marked the moment when digital media transitioned decisively to dominance. This wasn’t just about faster adoption or newer formats; it reflected a more profound shift in intent. Digital is no longer being tested at the margins; it now sits at the centre of brand and business strategy, driving measurable outcomes through data, creators, retail media, OTT, and Connected TV. What makes this phase different is clarity. Leaders are no longer debating whether digital works, but focusing on how to execute it better, at scale, with accountability and integration. Importantly, this isn’t a story of replacement. Traditional media continues to hold relevance, albeit with a recalibrated role in a more hybrid, outcome-led ecosystem. I’ve explored these shifts, the data behind them, and what they mean for brands and media leaders in more detail in the article. Do give it a read. #DigitalMedia #MediaLeadership #MarketingTrends #CXOInsights #IndianMedia
