Akshay Mathur, a leading figure in India’s digital advertising and adtech sector, has officially stepped down from his role at Tyroo (SMILE Group), concluding a transformative decade at the organisation.
During his time at Tyroo, Mathur played a pivotal role in shaping digital advertising across Asia, driving platform growth and enabling large-scale monetisation strategies. With a career that spans Bennett, Coleman & Co. Ltd. (The Times Group), People Group, Yahoo! India, Komli Media, SVG Media, and Dentsu, Mathur has consistently remained at the forefront of the region’s digital evolution.
Recognised for his strategic insight into revenue generation, partnerships, and business scaling, Mathur has led multiple successful expansions of global platforms in the region. His leadership across sales, operations, and growth has helped transform businesses with a focus on results-driven models.
“I’ve been incredibly fortunate to work with some of the most dynamic people, partners and platforms in the industry,” said Mathur. “Each chapter has been about building, learning, and growing - and I’m looking forward to carrying that momentum into what comes next.”
Mathur’s influence extends to enterprise sales, partner-led monetisation frameworks, and deploying both brand and performance solutions at scale across fast-paced Asian markets. With a blend of global perspective and regional expertise, he remains a key figure in Asia’s rapidly evolving digital economy.
Although his next move is yet to be disclosed, industry insiders are keenly watching for what’s to come from one of the most respected voices in the field.
