The Advertising Council of India (ACI) has announced the third edition of the New Age Leadership Program (NALP), scheduled for June 19–22, 2025

The programme is being launched in collaboration with the Asian Federation of Advertising Associations (AFAA).

Designed as an immersive and experiential leadership development initiative, NALP offers a unique opportunity for 25 high-potential professionals under the age of 35 from the marketing and communications (marcom) industry.

Participants will engage with leading companies across various sectors under the guidance of industry veteran and Proctor, Manish Advani.

Commenting on the initiative, Ramesh Narayan, Chairman of ACI, said, “This program is a strategic investment in the future of the marcom industry. It provides emerging leaders with broad industry exposure, practical insights, and a platform for cross-industry learning—completely free of cost.”

Organisations can nominate their brightest young talent. Interested candidates can download the programme brochure and application form from afaaglobal.org/NALP. The completed application must be submitted by May 31.

AFFA also offers a high level leadership program under which six candidates get trained at Kuala Lumpur with all expenses borne by AFFA, Narayan said.
