Mindset was set up in Hyderabad in 1998 by a small team of advertising professionals, who had worked
for leading global advertising agencies.

In 2007 we entered into an association with JWT - India's largest and foremost advertising agency.
In a first for India, JWT opened office in affiliation with Mindset, rather than set up an independent
branch establishment here.

We believe we can deliver a new level of capabilities and resources to contribute to the building
of Hyderabad-based brands, both in the Indian market and globally. Here is what we can bring to
your party:

  • A full-service advertising offering - a team of 45 people on the ground, spanning all the services
    you might need: Account Management, Creative, Strategy, Media and Production.

  • A team of hard-core professionals, who combine experience with entrepreneurship and a
    “get-it-done" spirit

  • An excellent track record, local roots and a unique understanding of Hyderabad business needs,
    which have added up to give us a strong brand equity in the market

  • PR services through IPAN Hill and Knowlton, JWT's specialist PR company
