MUMBAI: Looks like LS Digital is giving its design story a bold new stroke. The integrated Digital Business Transformation (DBT) company has appointed Dipali Mahesh as managing director – UI/UX, F1studioz, signalling its intent to put design at the heart of its global growth blueprint.
Mahesh brings 28 years of leadership experience across media and technology, with senior stints at Sony Pictures and Extreme Reach (formerly Adstream). She has managed multi-market operations across India, Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand, building high-performing teams and turning around businesses with a clear focus on profitability.
At LS Digital, Mahesh will co-lead the UI/UX vertical with co-founder & chief designer, D. Dhayan Kumar, under the guidance of Prasad Shejale, founder & CEO. Her brief? To shape F1studioz’s global strategy, expand its footprint in the US, UAE, and Europe, and position the studio as the go-to partner for enterprises betting on UI/UX as a critical business transformation lever.
“I believe agility and innovation will continue to be our strongest differentiators,” Mahesh said, underlining her focus on scaling impact in international markets.
Dhayan Kumar welcomed her appointment, noting the “immense value” of her global perspective, while Prasad Shejale called her a “deep expert in design strategy” whose experience will be pivotal to LS Digital’s next phase of innovation.
For a firm that has been building its design-led transformation playbook, this appointment is no cosmetic tweak. It’s a strategic brushstroke on a much larger canvas, one where LS Digital is sketching its vision of future-ready UI/UX solutions with measurable impact for enterprises worldwide.
