An open letter to our boss, friend, and guiding light Prof. Dr KK,
Your vision to elevate the world through the power of branding has transformed lives and inspired generations. 20 years ago, when the path of brands and branding seemed unclear, you illuminated the way, shedding light on the challenges of our time and gave birth to the world of brands and branding.

To us, you are a father figure, a leader, and a mentor who wears his heart on his sleeve. Dear Dr. KK, we bear witness to the blood, sweat, and tears you poured into building The BrandLaureate. The time, effort, patience, and grit you displayed have paved the way for us, a new generation of branding professionals.
