Ricky Ghai reposted thisGreat campaigns don't just introduce a brand message, they create a story people want to talk about. ✨ Hilton's latest campaign with Deepika Padukone beautifully captures how a Hilton stay enables you to show up as your best self - as the hustler you are who stops at nothing to pursue success. 🤩 Through movement, music and authentic storytelling, the campaign brings that feeling to life in a way that feels both aspirational and relatable. Behind the campaign, our team is proud to be supporting the comms and PR to help amplify its message and maximise its impact with our partners Everymedia Technologies Pvt. Ltd. A great example of how compelling storytelling, the right ambassador and an integrated communications approach can amplify a campaign's impact. Delighted to be part of such a wonderful agency team: PRECIOUS, Everymedia Technologies Pvt. Ltd., Dentsu India, McCANN India. And thank you to the team at Hilton who push us all to deliver our very best work - Kimberly M., Kathryn Rhodes, Alexandre Rodrigues, Tibor Pados, MBA, PMP, Gretchen Moore, Reema Singh, Tilly Beaumont, Daphne Tan, Caroline Dupont, Ruchika Gupta, Kavita Mohanty Rodrigues, Arin Tham, Aaron Thomas, Yann Micuta.Ricky Ghai reposted thisWe all have people, routines and support systems that help us show up at our best every day. When we travel, we leave many of them behind! Our new campaign with global brand ambassador Deepika Padukone celebrates the freedom that comes from having the right support around her. When Hilton takes care of everything, something shifts. We see a side of Deepika that’s spontaneous, playful, and completely in her element. Through movement and music, we capture the confidence and comfort that comes from feeling taken care of so Deepika can focus on what matters most. It’s a beautiful expression of the feeling Hilton creates for every one of our guests. Thank you to our incredible team and partners who brought this to life. So excited to finally share this with the world! 👏 #HiltonForTheStay #HiltonxDeepikaPadukone Gretchen Moore Alexandre Rodrigues Kathryn Rhodes Caroline Dupont Ruchika Gupta Manish Tolani Tibor Pados, MBA, PMP Kristine Banzon Yann Micuta Kavita Mohanty Rodrigues Nicole Chiappetta Aaron Thomas Arin Tham Naveed Naseer Tilly Beaumont Daphne Tan Aashima Verma McCANN India dentsu Plus 1 Communications PRECIOUS

Ricky Ghai reposted thisRicky Ghai reposted thisHow many people have actually launched schools overseas? Like actually? Like done the investor deal, designed the brand, recruited the pupils - including being responsible for paid-ads in Arabic to the tune of millions of pounds being paid for by your very wealthy local partners? In reality, there aren't many that have got their hands 'dirty' and done the work to this degree. I'm one. And for Ubiq X Live, I've put together a panel of three more international expansionistas who have 'done the work' and taken brands overseas successfully: Anita GLEAVE - CEO of QED Schools Group responsible for the acquisition and/or launch of just shy of 70 schools around the world Karen Lane - CEO of Plus 1 Communications the agency brand behind global education and luxury consumer brands who has delivered successful paid-for digitial recruitment campaigns resulting in 10,000s of admissions for schools she's worked for in the UK and MENA including Bloom World Academy and Beech Hall School Riyadh Darrell Barnes - Malvern College International's Brand and Business Development Director who is stewarding Malvern's classic British heritage with a contemporary approach and brand message in their existing schools around the world whilst cultivating new opportunities for further expansion If you're already attending Ubiq X Live, our session details are: Date: 5th March Time: 1.15-2.00pm Venue: Ubiq X Live, Tobacco Dock, London Room: Main Stage (Where else would we be!!!!!) If you're not.... It's OK. I know you've had a lot on! BUT Now. is. the. time. The event had sold out but Ubiq has just agreed to take more capacity with the venue and there are a limited amount of tickets remaining at a last minute price. Click the link in the comments to seal your spot or DM me for group enquiries 😉 This panel has never been on stage together before. A conference like this has never been hosted before. Come along and make sure you're at the main stage at 1.15pm on the Thursday. I promise it will be no holds-barred and we'll be sharing the realities of how you go about 'going global', how to navigate the challenges and how to make the most of the opportunities. Because We've Done It. ✅ DM me if you're going and want to catch up over the two days 👋

Ricky Ghai liked thisRicky Ghai liked this☁️ A day at the AWS Builder Center that I’ll genuinely remember! Today, I got the opportunity to attend an AWS Builder Center workshop in Vashi, and honestly, it was an experience I never thought would be on my list. The event started with a cloud computing quiz, where I got the opportunity to test my AWS knowledge. It was honestly such a good feeling to get some of the questions right— We then had a hands-on workshop on Kiro, where we got to explore how AI can assist us while building and developing applications. The day was filled with learning as well as fun. We had breakfast, received some amazing AWS goodies 🎁, participated in games, and later attended another interesting workshop on Amazon Bedrock, where we got an introduction to foundation models and saw how an AI application can be built using AWS. What made this experience even more special for me was being there in person at an AWS event. AWS is a company I aspire to work with someday, so getting a glimpse of this ecosystem and learning from people working with these technologies was genuinely inspiring. I came back with new things to learn, a lot of excitement, and honestly, even more motivation to keep working towards my goal. Grateful for this experience and for the opportunity to learn, explore and have fun along the way. 🚀☁️ #AWS #AWSBuilderCenter #CloudComputing #Kiro #AmazonBedrock #GenerativeAI #AWSCommunity #LearningJourney #StudentDeveloper

Ricky Ghai liked thisRicky Ghai liked thisNext July, Hampshire will welcome a brand-new festival bringing together music, food, culture, wellness and purpose for one extraordinary long-weekend. Across multiple stages and spaces, Legends For Good will celebrate great experiences, shared passions and the power of coming together. But the festival has a purpose beyond the weekend itself. 100% of profits will go to our charity partners, Mind, Steps2Recovery and Hammersley Homes, supporting vital work in mental health and addiction recovery. A festival built around the things we love, with the opportunity to make a meaningful difference while we enjoy them.

Ricky Ghai reacted on thisRicky Ghai reacted on thisI am delighted and very grateful to have been included in the Legal 500 Hall of Fame. This year also marked my 20 years at Devonshires, where I started my career as a qualified solicitor (somewhat younger and certainly less experienced!). Having spent those years advising clients across the real estate and development sector, this acknowledgement feels particularly special. The best part of the job has always been the relationships built over the years and I remain hugely appreciative of the trust placed in me by clients. It has been a privilege to work on some fantastic deals and projects over the past year. Congratulations to my fellow Devonshires Partners who have also been recognised this year, but in particular Jonathan Corris on his inclusion in the Hall of Fame.

Ricky Ghai liked thisRicky Ghai liked thisSome events give you information. The best ones change the way you think. 🚀 Today, 11 September 2026, was one of those days for me. I had the opportunity to attend an AWS Community Builder event from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM, and the entire day was filled with valuable conversations, technical insights, and perspectives around Cloud, AWS, and Generative AI. A special thank you to Sanchay Thalnerkar, Abhishek Maurya and Yash Garudkar for sharing your knowledge and making the sessions so engaging and insightful. One session that particularly stood out to me was the deep dive into Amazon Bedrock. Abhishek Maurya did an excellent job of breaking down a complex topic into concepts that were easy to understand and connect with real-world applications. What I appreciated most was the clarity, practical approach, and effort put into making the session meaningful for everyone attending. It wasn't just about learning what Amazon Bedrock is. It was about understanding how these technologies can be explored, applied, and turned into something useful. And that's what I’m taking away from today's experience not just notes, but new questions, new ideas, and even more motivation to keep learning and building. ☁️🤖 A heartfelt appreciation to Sanchay Thalnerkar, Abhishek Maurya, and Yash Garudkar for sharing their valuable insights, experiences, and perspectives. Your words made the session truly engaging and gave us plenty to reflect on and learn from. Grateful for the time, knowledge, and inspiration you brought to the conversation. Grateful to the AWS community, the speakers, and everyone who made today's experience, possible. Keep learning. Keep building. Keep exploring. #AWS #AWSCommunity #AWSCommunityBuilders #AWSBuilderCenter #AmazonWebServices #AmazonBedrock #GenerativeAI #ArtificialIntelligence #CloudComputing #CloudEngineering #CloudArchitecture #AWSCloud #MachineLearning #TechCommunity #ContinuousLearning

On my way to the IBC - International Broadcasting Convention. There’s a lot of technological evolution happening across #audio, something our team at RedTech News has been showcasing in the lead-up to the show through our weekly ‘Fresh Audio Tech on Show at IBC’ newsletters. #AI is increasingly being embedded into existing technology and workflows, and I’m expecting some fascinating insights at the IBC into where this is heading: how connected-car technology is unlocking richer data in close to real-time to support programmers and commercial teams; how AI agents are beginning to automate mundane tasks, creating more time and space for creative teams to excel; and how quickly solutions supporting programmatic buying and selling of linear FM and digital broadcast radio and audio are evolving. There is much more to explore than what I’ve singled out, lots to learn and plenty of questions to ask. Many won’t get to the show. Look out for updates on RedTech News.

The future of production won’t be defined by content alone. It will be defined by infrastructure. Today's Maverick Maxim: For years, independent production has been measured by commissions. But the next phase of growth in UK media is structural. Studios. Mobile broadcast capability. Battery-powered deployment. IP ownership. Direct audience brands. When those sit under one roof, you stop being a supplier. You become a platform. At Afanti, we’ve been building deliberately: • Asset-backed infrastructure • 300kWh battery OB capability through Afango • Studio capacity • Format and archive IP • Direct-to-audience influence through Inside the Maverick Mind and other assets Green deployment is not a marketing line. It is regulatory anticipation. Urban clean air zones. Broadcaster ESG targets. Tender requirements that will tighten, not loosen. Diesel is becoming a liability. Battery capability is becoming a competitive moat. The next chapter for regional production businesses isn’t just about chasing more shows. It’s about structuring for scalable integration. Governance over personality. Systems over instinct. Long-term alignment over short-term exits. When infrastructure, ESG capability and creative IP converge, acceleration follows. We are building with that horizon in mind. The real question for the UK production sector is this: Who is still thinking in programmes - and who is thinking in platforms? #MaverickMaximMonday #GreenProduction #Infrastructure #ESG #MediaStrategy #Wales #Scale
