About Dhruv Kanal
After completing my engineering studies and obtaining a master\'s degree in marketing, my professional journey commenced at Infosys. My first stint was a hardcore techno functional consulting role soon after transitioning to spearhead sports marketing initiatives at Infosys. This allowed me to harmonize my passion and education, while also becoming a pivotal member of the conferences and events team. Over the years, I have led global multi-cultural teams and introduced cutting-edge tech led marketing campaigns and also added digital innovations in the sport of tennis utilizing advanced technologies like XR and Generative AI. We have developed 40+ innovations, executed over 50+ events and conferences and collectively won over 30 global awards. One of the most exciting aspects of my career has been forging global partnerships with legends such as Rafael Nadal and Iga Swiatek, as well as prestigious sports organizations like the Australian Open, ATP, and Roland-Garros. These collaborations have not only transformed digital innovations in tennis but have also elevated Infosys into a Top-100 brand and driven significant pipeline.I derive immense pleasure from engaging in recreational sports such as tennis, golf, cricket, and badminton. Music serves as another source of joy in my life, and I enjoy strumming my guitar. Furthermore, spending time with our adored cockapoo, Rusty, brings immeasurable delight and relaxation to my days.
