2026 Speaker's Profile
Sagar Paranjpe
Vice President of Marketing
Valiram
Sagar Paranjpe is vice president of marketing at Valiram, Southeast Asia’s leading luxury and lifestyle retail group. With 25 years of experience across aviation, retail, media, and storytelling, he previously led Malaysia Airlines’ brand campaigns and safety video, and now oversees group marketing functions and regional initiatives across brands like MLB, Steve Madden, Läderach, Faure Le Page, Godiva, and Rituals. A former ad man who still thinks in headlines, Paranjpe brings clarity, creativity, and commercial sense to every campaign. He believes in the power of stories well told, meetings that end on time, and coffee that doesn’t taste like regret. When he’s not obsessing over creative briefs or campaign ROI, he’s busy convincing himself that his podcast, Ordinary Lives of Extraordinary People, is just on a “creative break.”
