Kartik Jobanputra (KJ)'s Linkedin Analytics

With the undying pursuit of finesse in his professional and personal life, Kartik is a man of diverse and at times unpredictable choices. One may find him not just reading philosophy about living in the present but going one step further, in seizing the present and jumping off a plane. Again and again in fact – until he became a certified diver. Kartik isn’t theoretical. He doesn’t speak in hypotheticals. He lives life by doing. Background & Interest In his early working days, Kartik worked as an engineer. He then continued as a marketing manager at The Times of India followed by working as a director in the creative entertainment industry. Kartik then worked as a strategic consultant at Apex Entertainment and further advanced to the position of a founder of the Urban Studios LLP in Mumbai. These progressions were pivotal to his growth and functioned as steppingstone to his current position as a Founder & Managing Director at the Splash Light Studio, UAE., which was founded as startup of the year. In looking back, Kartik will be the first to acknowledge that his career path was not conventional. Guiding philosophy: He believes in self-awareness and practices mindfulness. Benevolent by nature ;He enjoys his success through gratitude and his ability to give back. Whether it be through mentorship, or his charitable organisations – Kartik is a firm believer in kindness & generosity- this may include mentorship / charity to animal welfare. He is passionate with a purpose; he possesses unstoppable creativity and business acumen. Coveting to the traditional templates of business and the contemporary zeal of getting inspired for real life, Kartik has understood the simple fact that the larger you live, the longer you do. Noteworthy mentions: Having raised $1million USD in seed funding for Splash Light Studios to him being awarded as startup founder of the year, having spoken at GITEX, and having been featured in Forbes and a part of the Entrepreneur leadership network – one may naturally expect that Kartik ‘s accomplishments come at the cost of his day to day life. That, he incessantly spends most of his days endlessly working. Untrue. Kartik is a firm believer in having diverse interests and most fundamentally, the pursuit of growth. His zeal for taking calculated risks and operating limitlessly is not confined to the corners of an office. It extends to the greater heights of skydiving – and experiments with unfamiliar – exotic cuisines. In short, Kartik’s passion to experience, conquer and continue to grow extends to all his areas of life.........
