India Global Review (IGR) was founded by Palki Sharma, one of India’s most recognised journalists, with over two decades of experience across television, print, and digital media, including stints at WION, CNN-News18, and Network18 where she served as Managing Editor of Firstpost and built the global affairs show Vantage to billions of views. Sharma founded IGR after stepping down from Network18 with a conviction that the world needed a credible, independent, Indian voice in global media.
IGR is a digital-first platform focused on international affairs, reported and presented through an Indian perspective. It is designed to be accessible across leading internet platforms and connected television ecosystems, with a planned rollout across the US, Europe, West Asia, South Asia, and Africa.
Elev8 invested in IGR because it saw a founder-market fit that is rarely this clear: one of India’s most credible journalists, with a proven global audience, building a platform for which the structural demand is obvious and the competitive landscape is genuinely open.
