Zamiras Annual Kick-Off Meeting
One Team, One Goal
Zamira brought together its South Asia team, global leadership and key partners for its Annual Kick-Off Meeting, held from 28–30 July 2026 at Aamby Valley, Lonavala.
Under the theme “One Team, One Goal,” the three-day event provided an opportunity to reflect on the achievements of the past year, align priorities for FY27 and strengthen the capabilities and partnerships supporting Zamira’s continued growth across South Asia.
Zamira CEO Stewart Cairns travelled from Australia to open the meeting, reviewing the key drivers behind the previous year’s performance and outlining areas of focus for the year ahead.
“South Asia plays a vital role in Zamira’s global success. The dedication of our local team, combined with the strength of our partnerships, continues to set the standard for what ‘One Team, One Goal’ truly means,” Mr Cairns said.
Dr Shaveta Sood, Director South Asia, then presented the FY27 goals and priorities, setting the direction for the team for the coming year.
The program also focused strongly on the commercial, marketing and technical capabilities required to support these objectives. Dr Shailaja Rajyam, Product and Marketing Manager, presented Zamira’s marketing and new product plans, including the marketing communications that will support upcoming product introductions.
Investment in people and capability development was another key focus of the meeting. Agribusiness specialist David Faulkner and Zamira Global Trainer Jane Enciso delivered an advanced sales training program, providing the team with practical tools and strategies to strengthen customer engagement and sales performance.
A dedicated leadership development program for people managers also explored the skills and behaviours required to develop future-ready sales leaders and support the continued growth of Zamira’s people from within the organisation.
Technical learning formed an important part of the program, with Dr Sujit Kulkarni of Bextral, Netherlands, presenting on the technical aspects of ZamiBoost Immune Defence Liquid. The session provided the team with further technical insights to support informed discussions with customers.
The Kick-Off concluded on 30 July with Zamira’s Channel Partners Forum, recognising the important contribution of the distribution and strategic partners who support the company across the region. Partners received commemorative mementos bearing the message “Zamira Celebrating 16 Years of Excellence” in recognition of their loyalty and continued partnership.
The evening also celebrated the achievements of the Zamira South Asia team, with awards recognising outstanding contributions across both sales and support functions. The awards reflected the teamwork, commitment and shared purpose at the heart of this year’s theme.
Closing the event, Dr Shaveta Sood acknowledged the contribution of Zamira’s people and partners to the company’s continued progress in South Asia.
“I’m incredibly proud of the South Asia team—their passion, commitment and drive are what power Zamira forward. Special thanks to our innovation partners, distribution network and the dedicated individuals behind the scenes who made this event possible,” Dr Sood said.
With its people, partners and priorities aligned for FY27, the Annual Kick-Off reinforced the message at the centre of Zamira’s plans for the year ahead: One Team, One Goal.
