The focus of PrintWeek's Power 100 is centered on recognising individuals and companies that wield their influence to drive prosperity within the Indian print and packaging industry. This is achieved through various means such as expanding companies, investing in innovation, diversifying offerings, and crucially, challenging the existing norms and practices.
The sixth edition of The Power 100 promises to be a showcase of packaging and print prowess, highlighting the resilience and success of those who have triumphed against the odds and are thriving in the industry. The top 100 names will be featured in the May anniversary edition of PrintWeek.
Some of the trends to look out for in the 2024 list are: women presence in the Power 100 list; new names from what was traditionally considered the industry's backwaters; and shift in the age demographics.
In the 2023 list, P Narendra of Pragati Group ranked number one. The other nine industry leaders in the top 10 were Gautham Pai of Manipal Technologies; Anand Kripalu of EPL; Bhuvnesh Seth, Sanandan Seth, Vikaran Seth of Replika Press; Ashutosh Manohar of Tetra Pak; Dhananjay Salunkhe of Huhtamaki India; SN Venkataraman of ITC PPB; Ramesh Kejriwal, Siddharth Kejriwal, and Chaitanya Kejriwal of Parksons; Saket Kanoria, Akshay Kanoria and Vidur Kanoria of TCPL; K Selvakumar of Lovely Offset Printers.
Keep an eye out for further updates in the upcoming anniversary edition.
