About Anurag Garg

I build businesses and lead organisations through complexity — from defining 10-year growth strategies for a EUR 1 bn+ enterprise to building 60-person consulting practices from the ground up. Over two decades, I have operated at the intersection of strategy, marketing, and business building across Aerospace & Defence, Technology, and Consumer sectors. My career has spanned three distinct acts: trusted advisor to 50+ C-suites across India, Europe, and the US at Strategy & / PwC; Country Executive Committee member at Thales India, where I led the strategy, marketing, and BD function with a mandate to build a EUR 1 bn India business Highlights:→ End-to-end P&L accountability: Built and ran a highly profitable 60-member strategy practice; led GTM, culture, finance, and growth — not just advisory. → Deal-making and M&A: Led commercial due diligence on a USD 2.6 bn deal (consummated); executed multiple M&A engagements for global PE and corporates. → Large-account business development: Built a EUR 700 mn+ pipeline at Thales across civil aviation, space, and defence; drove large contract wins in defence, civil aviation, and space.→ Government and policy influence: Advised Niti Aayog, MoD, and DPSUs on strategic policy; managed relationships at the highest levels of the Indian defence ecosystem. → Brand and thought leadership: LinkedIn followers; quoted in Forbes, Economic Times, Business Today; designated Thales spokesperson at national and international forums. I am drawn to roles & responsibilities where strategy must translate into execution — where a leader must be simultaneously visionary and deeply operational. I thrive in ambiguity, build high-trust teams, and consistently deliver profitable growth.
