Director

WMS Entertainment

Akshat Kumar was right out of college when, at the age of 21, along with his partner Sharan Behl, he co-founded WMS Entertainment. It started out with a passion for music and a desire to bring top international artists to tour in India. Over the years, WMS has branched out to event production, artist management, and experiential marketing, working with brands like Absolut, Bacardi, Red Bull, Moet Hennessy, Diageo and Budweiser to name a few. The duo have also spearheaded and co-launched (along with Passcode Hospitality) pan-India festivals like India Cocktail Week and TOAST- Wine & Beer Fest. Nurturing a love for gourmet food and hospitality, Akshat is also a partner at restaurants – Saz On The Beach (Morjim, Goa) and Saz Delhi (DLF Promenade, New Delhi).
