ITV Network unveils new revenue stream with the launch of Ticketed Events Vertical under Akshansh Yadav
In a landmark move set to redefine its business landscape, ITV Network is entering the world of ticketed events, spearheaded by Akshansh Yadav, Chief Product & Technology Officer. This bold initiative, marked by the upcoming ‘We Women Want’ Conclave, signals the establishment of a dedicated events vertical and unveils an exciting new revenue stream for the network.
The ‘We Women Want’ Conclave—a celebration of the indomitable female spirit—will take place on 7th August at The Imperial Hotel, Delhi. An impressive line-up of celebrities including Neha Dhupia, Sunny Leone, Urfi Javed, Nimrat Kaur, Dia Mirza, and Ekta Kapoor, along with other luminaries, will grace the event, which aims to recognise and felicitate women achievers across various spheres. To underscore its mission, the initiative has instituted the prestigious Shakti Awards.
Tickets for the event, available on BookMyShow, District, and the official WeWomenWant.com site, have seen an exhilarating response with the first set selling out rapidly. Responding to the surging public interest, ITV Network has expanded capacity to welcome a larger audience eager to participate in this pioneering celebration.
“Digital media is evolving, and ticketed events are emerging as the next big wave—offering audiences not just content but immersive experiences. We’re thrilled that our first foray into ticketed events is being met with such enthusiasm, validating our vision for a diversified and future-ready business model,” said Mr. Akshansh Yadav, who is leading this transformation within ITV Network.
Indeed, as more media organizations worldwide explore ticketed experiences, these events are fast becoming a lucrative avenue for engagement and revenue growth. ITV Network’s move reaffirms the trend, positioning the company at the forefront of digital innovation while empowering the communities it serves.
The success of the ‘We Women Want’ conclave will only be the beginning, as ITV Network charts a dynamic path towards creating flagship events that forge deeper connections with audiences, unlock new commercial opportunities, and champion causes that matter.
