"psLive gives us a unique opportunity to offer diverse, professional experiential marketing solutions to our clients in APAC," Bhasin said. "Country specific, customized services will be offered spanning across activation, events, rural marketing, PR, partnerships and other areas, depending upon the needs of each market.”
