Strategic Growth Advisors (SGA), one of India’s fastest-growing fully integrated communications consultancy firms, has announced the elevation of Kevin Shah to the role of Managing Director. Formerly serving as Executive Director, Kevin has been a key architect of SGA’s transformation from a specialist investor relations advisory firm into a comprehensive communications powerhouse.
Kevin has led the firm’s diversification into three major verticals — Corporate Reporting, Public Relations, and Brand & Design. Each of these arms has matured into strong business pillars under his leadership, contributing significantly to the firm’s overall growth.
His strategic vision, client-first approach, and commitment to empowering teams have helped SGA earn the trust of marquee brands across sectors. Kevin is widely regarded as a next-generation leader who embraces innovation, champions autonomy across Strategic Business Units (SBUs), and is unafraid to challenge traditional norms.
“As Kevin takes charge in his new role, the road ahead for SGA is filled with optimism and opportunity. With a leadership style rooted in empathy, purpose, and performance, he is committed to building on the foundation laid over the last 15 years, strengthening culture, driving innovation, and delivering consistent value to clients.
Backed by a passionate and forward-thinking team, SGA is ready to scale new heights and continue pushing the boundaries of integrated communications. The firm remains anchored in its core values while staying agile in a dynamic landscape, ready to adapt, evolve, and lead,” said Samir Shah, Founder & Chairman of SGA.
Kevin Shah expressed both gratitude and determination as he steps into his new role: “Stepping into the role of Managing Director at SGA is both an honour and a profound responsibility. From the early days of the firm, my journey has been one of continuous learning and growth, guided by the principles instilled by my father and the collective wisdom of our team.”
“Our evolution from a specialised investor relations advisory to a full-spectrum communications powerhouse is a testament to our own learning, collective efforts and unwavering dedication to growth and value addition. As I embark on this new chapter, my focus will be on nurturing people, deepening client partnerships, and driving innovation across our service offerings. Together, we will strive to uphold SGA's legacy of excellence in the communications landscape,” Kevin Shah added.
The announcement marks a defining milestone for SGA as it looks to consolidate its current capabilities and explore new avenues within the ever-evolving communications ecosystem.
