The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Stanford University- alumnus Dr. Dharmarajah will be at the helm of LoweTech, a new vertical under MLG that will deliver value at scale through multiple technology-based offerings to clients within and outside the group’s portfolio, the company said in an announcement.

LoweTech will research, develop, and implement software solutions which can intuitively help marketing leaders to make mission-critical business decisions, meet objectives and drive innovation within their organizations.
Speaking on the launch of LoweTech, Thayalan Bartlett, CEO of MullenLowe Group Sri Lanka, said, “We have been working on this new offering for some time and its launch has been set back by two years of COVID-19. With the introduction of LoweTech we will seamlessly integrate our new MarTech offerings with AdTech which is already being delivered through LoweDigital and will complete a holistic digital offering to clients. I am delighted to welcome Sohan to the MullenLowe Group’s Senior Management Team and to spearhead LoweTech.
