Indian PR firm launches in Australia

Independent Indian PR firm, Media Mantra, has launched new Australian operations under the brand Media Mantra Global.

Operating out of offices in Sydney’s Hunters Hill, the move represents the agency’s strategic expansion into the Asia-Pacific region, with a stated vision of becoming a “globally integrated communications partner for brands looking to scale across international markets.”

With established operations in India and the UAE, the Australia launch strengthens Media Mantra Global's growing international presence, enabling the agency to offer integrated public relations, corporate communications, digital marketing, influencer marketing, content, and brand reputation services across multiple geographies.

The Sydney office will cater to Australian businesses looking to expand into India and the Middle East while also supporting Indian and global brands seeking strategic communications expertise in Australia.

Founder and CEO, Udit Pathak, said the Australian office is more than just an international expansion: “…it is a defining moment for Media Mantra Global and, I believe, for the Indian PR industry. We have always believed that Indian communications agencies can compete with the very best globally through strategic thinking, innovation, and execution excellence.

“Australia is an important market with immense opportunities, and this expansion enables us to build stronger cross-border communication strategies for brands operating across India, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific region.”
