The initiative launches a three-year strategic framework centered on four key pillars: Awareness, Advisory, Assimilation, and Action. Pari Natarajan, CEO, Zinnov shared, “Public art is not just about aesthetic enhancement; it’s about creating meaningful community engagement and bridging cultural divides. With commercial real estate growing at a record pace globally, estimated to reach a market volume of USD 126.6 Tn by 2029, we have an unprecedented opportunity to integrate art into these new developments from the grounds up.”
The goal of the program is to have a targeted outreach across key stakeholders including the Government, and corporate leaders across realty, technology, and hospitality sectors. The program will also focus on implementation levers which will have Zinnov lend its expertise in providing end-to-end support for art integration, including project conceptualization, budget planning, and resource management.
A key dimension of the program will include creating a robust ecosystem of curators, urban planners, designers, architects, artists, government officials, and corporate partners. This ecosystem will be hosted on a platform that includes documentation of art projects, case studies, and playbooks to ensure easy access to the best practices prevalent in the ecosystem.
This approach and document was presented at the launch event and discussed by a distinguished set of stakeholders including Heena Pari, Visual Artist and Creative Consultant, Zinnov; V Ravichandar, Civic Evangelist; Vikas Nagrare, Director – Special Projects, Govt. Liaison & Strategy, St+Art India; Vinay Parameswarappa, CEO, Gully.tours and Kamini Sawhney, Independent Curator and Board Member, CIMAM. The event was attended by over 50 industry leaders, demonstrating strong ecosystem support for the initiative.
Talking about this initiative, Nitika Goel, CMO, Zinnov, shared, “In an age where AI often distances us from personal connections, transforming public spaces into vibrant community hubs is more crucial than ever. Thoughtful design fosters genuine interactions and a sense of belonging, making this initiative vital for nurturing stronger communities and more livable cities.”
