IES Unplugged Magazine Team at Launch

IES Bangalore · Magazine · 2024

IES Unplugged,
“The Stories You’ve Never Heard”

As Deputy Director to Communications at IES Bangalore, Dr. Divya Gupta conceived, built, and launched IES Unplugged, the institution’s bold new magazine that tells the stories of IES like never before.

From editorial strategy to visual identity to team coordination and launch execution, this was end-to-end communications leadership. The kind of work that happens when someone with 15 years of institutional communications experience is in the room.

Recognised with the Employee of the Year 2026 Award at IES AGM for this and other communications achievements.
