Nikhil Furtado started Merako at 18 with a laptop and no team. The idea was simple: businesses in India deserved better marketing than what they were getting. 14 years later it's a 20-person agency across two cities.

NIKHIL FURTADO
Nikhil is a self-taught designer and marketer who built Merako Media from a one-person freelance operation into a full-service agency over 14 years. He started at 18 in Mysuru with no formal marketing education, just an obsession with design and a habit of figuring things out. Early on, he was the designer, the account manager, the strategist, and the person chasing invoices. That background shows in how the agency is run.
He's been a NDTV top-6 finalist for an online business idea, placed in the top 5 student startups in India at TATA First Dot, and has built and run multiple ventures alongside Merako. His approach to the agency is direct: good strategy, original creative, honest reporting. He stays involved in strategy on major accounts and doesn't sign off on creative work he wouldn't be proud of.
