I've been associated with DMA for more than eight years now. I think I'm like I attended the first session I think in one of the hotels in Delhi. And I think what really impressed me was that the fact that you were talking about data and a newer way of marketing at that point of time was just so fresh to here. And the ability to create unique perspectives through well thought of content is what sets it apart. Look I'm thinking of content is super crucial for us to upgrade ourselves and industry bodies like DMA. If it helps create great content it just pushes you to educate yourself even much more. And I think you just took a DMA took a narrative which was very different and very inspiring in that world upon a time.
And I think DMA has followed through with that world of charter. And so I see DMA as a unique organization that challenges itself, it reinvents itself, which is how I as a digital business professional have gotten used to. But it's so inspiring to see DMA also doing that same. And then these are some of the aspects the data orientation being at the cutting edge of the voice of marketing and voice of growth. These are some elements that make it such an important contributor and element of the whole marketing and growth ecosystem. So yeah, close to DMA. And that's the thing that I think is really important.
