Lloyd Mathias
Business Leader, Former Head of Marketing, Director PC's, Asia-Pacific & Japan

He is a Pan-Asia business leader, marketer and strategist with intimate knowledge of the region and a proven track record of creating compelling visons and driving business performance across the Consumer, Telecom & Technology domains. He has run P&L's and driven positive commercial outcomes in global companies - HP, Tata, Motorola & PepsiCo.
When asked turning points in his life, Lloyd Mathias said, “I always wanted to be in the marketing domain. The first big turning point for me was when I joined PepsiCo – then in its early stages in India. I had moved from my previous sales job to a large global brand that was keen to become the voice of Indian youth. I travelled the country, was closely involved with Pepsi’s tie up with cricket, and worked on brands like 7up Mirinda, launched Mountain Dew in India & brought some of India’s music acts. The learnings were immense. Another one was my switch into technology, when I moved to Motorola as India CMO, after spending about 12 years at PepsiCo. At Motorola after 2 years leading marketing, I moved to head-sales and that was an interesting phase of building distribution channels, and starting enterprise sales.”
