Asif Naqvi

I’m ambitious for great work and well-versed in coping with creative challenges, technical constraints, and cross-media concerns to conceive, devise, and design digital products and creative solutions. I have also led, managed, and mentored multi-disciplinary teams across all facets of design, development, and content production.

Having professionally been raised in a start-up culture and being part of the digital revolution right from its infancy, I can challenge the status quo to drive change.

I'm also an Associate Member of the International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences - an organization overseeing highly acclaimed Webby Awards. I have been part of the Webby Awards judging team since 2016. I also had the opportunity to be part of the Nordic Startup Awards Jury besides many other endeavors.
