Shubhranshu Singh, currently serving as global Chief Marketing Office at Tata Motors Commercial Vehicles, has accepted an invitation to be an inaugural member of the Board of Directors of the Effie LIONS Foundation, a 501c3 organization based in New York State.
The Effie LIONS Foundation seeks to educate and empower the next generation of marketing talent globally, with an emphasis on underrepresented communities.
Effie LIONS Foundation Board members act as voting members of the board with full authority and responsibility to ensuring the organization’s long-term financial stability and integrity.
As a member of the Board of Directors, Shubranshu will have a unique opportunity to:
• Have a voice in shaping the marketing industry’s future talent
• Help ensure that the marketing industry attracts the diverse talent needed for its future success
• Connect with other industry leaders who share a common mission
Shubhranshu will work as a board member with a special focus on helping the foundation address the needs of India and South Asia.
As the regional representative, Shubhranshu’s perspective will be essential to shaping the programs.
The Foundation Board will meet twice annually.
One meeting each year will be in January, typically in New York or London.
One meeting is planned during the Cannes LIONS Festival of Creativity in June.
As a Board member, Shubhranshu is expected to serve on two board committees.
Subsequent to the acquisition of Effie worldwide by Informa plc, owner of the Cannes Lions, as of January 2025, the Effie LIONS Foundation was established as a 501c3 non-profit where the Board of Directors act as an action group for the talent needs of the industry and are structured to include representation from advertisers, global brands, media companies, non-profit organizations, and academia.
