Our speaker

We welcome Gurman Hundal, CEO and a co-founder of MiQ, an independent marketing intelligence company. He co-launched the now-global company in London after recognising a need for data-driven insight in an otherwise thriving ad-tech economy. 

Hundal began his career at the Pan Euro ad network Adlink Internet Media, where he launched the company's performance division just six months after joining the organization. There, he honed his expertise in ad tech, analysis and optimization. He subsequently led the establishment of online ad network A&NY Media for publisher group Associated Northcliffe Media.

Seeing both opportunity and demand for more transparent models in real-time advertising, Hundal and Puri started MiQ in 2010. Under Hundal's leadership, MiQ has maintained a 95% employee retention rate, more than twice the industry average.

In 2017, Hundal was named the winner of a Gold Stevie® Award in the Executive of the Year in the Advertising, Marketing & Public Relations category at the 15^th Annual American Business Awards.
