There are now more than 100 million people in India connected through Facebook, and in the past year Facebook invested heavily in creating solutions, like the click to missed call feature, that are tailored to the needs of people and advertisers. Today Facebook announced a next step— the India Client Council.
Comprised of a diverse group of leading client and agency partners, the India Client Council is a forum where some of India’s leading marketers can listen, inspire and share ideas about the future of marketing.
In India and around the world, the rate of people with access to digital services and devices is skyrocketing, and for many here the mobile phone has already become a true lifeline, providing information about market prices, healthcare, banking, employment and entertainment.
This rapid acceleration of mobile presents businesses with unprecedented opportunities to reach their customers, but also new challenges. Helping people and businesses connect is a key component of Facebook’s mission to make the world more open and connected.
