His remit included alliances with telecom operators, banks, internet service providers, connected device manufacturers, e-commerce platforms, fintech companies, wallets, as well as gifting and loyalty platforms, playing a key role in expanding the platform’s reach and monetisation capabilities.
Kadam joined SPNI in 2021 from Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited, where he worked on partnerships, growth and monetisation initiatives for ZEE5.

Over the years, his work has spanned multiple facets of the digital media and entertainment ecosystem, with a strong focus on partnerships and revenue growth.
With his departure from Sony Pictures Networks India, Kadam brings to a close a phase defined by scaling digital partnerships and subscription growth, as he looks ahead to the next chapter in his career.
