As an entrepreneur, Mahesh founded digital transformation firm Pinstorm in 2004, which helps ambitious brands win in the new economy: folks like Adobe, Airtel, ICICI Bank, India Today, Mondelez and Putzmeister. As a CEO, Mahesh turned around loss-making TV station Channel V till its sale to Star TV in 2000.
