DCMN India (www.dcmn.com), in a most recent development, has been on-boarded by upGrad, to manage and deliver performance-led TV campaigns sketched out for the current quarter. The first of these campaigns, targeting working professionals looking to upskill for better career opportunities, is scheduled to arrive on digital platforms and on TV this month. The duties also include media strategising as well as planning and delivering result-oriented and performance-driven marketing communications, by DCMN.
