With over 25 years in advertising, digital, entertainment, and consulting, Prashanth is a leader in digital transformation, content strategy, and brand innovation. He has built high-performing teams, managed P&Ls, and led groundbreaking campaigns for global brands. As Founder & CEO of Gravity Integrated, he provided strategic consulting to brands like Amazon Pay, Google, and Tata Motors. Previously, he held leadership roles at Publicis, Leo Burnett Orchard, and iContract, spearheading large-scale digital initiatives.

Rana Barua, Group CEO, Havas India, SEA, and North Asia, said, "Innovation is no longer an option; it is imperative. The creative industry is undergoing a seismic shift driven by technology, data, and consumer behaviour. Prashant will work closely with network leaders to drive the convergence of creative, media, and health, powered by data-driven innovation and technology, while seamlessly integrating storytelling to enhance impact."

On his appointment, Prashanth Challapalli added, "We live in the 'Attention Economy,' where AI-driven content is reshaping brand narratives and business outcomes. While creativity remains key, innovation now extends beyond advertising. Havas' integrated model fosters digital, media, culture, and creativity, with Converged, its AI-driven OS, further enhancing this synergy. I'm excited to join a network that pushes boundaries and sets new creative benchmarks, working with leadership to shape a fresh narrative for Havas, its brands, and its people."
