The conclave also spotlighted the rising role of regional and niche influencers. Sahil Chopra, Founder & CEO of iCubesWire, discussed the future of the industry: "Influencer marketing has grown immensely, and it's not just about large-scale influencers anymore. Micro and regional influencers are playing an increasingly critical role. The future of the industry lies in authentic, passion-driven storytelling that connects with audiences at a deeper level." 

Anaswar Rajagopal, Marketing Director at Colgate-Palmolive, emphasized the significance of knowledge-sharing in this evolving space. "It's a very interesting space that I think is becoming incredibly important for all of us from a working media standpoint. More and more of our budgets are getting allocated towards influencer marketing and hence it's important for all of us to come together and share learnings." he explained.

With influencer marketing continuing to grow - fueled by over Rs 2,200 crores already invested in India - the event underscored the importance of authentic connections between brands and influencers. As Sahil Chopra concluded, "The industry's future is about genuine storytelling, not just large-scale influencers."
