According to Dhrubo J. Borkotoky, co-founder, Design Worldwide, "Since our inception in 2005 we have pioneered the concept of design outsourcing and successfully collaborated with design teams & clients across Asia-Pacific, Canada & UK to deliver projects beyond geographical boundaries. While earlier partnerships were project based, we felt an increasing need to move to the next stage and forge a stable strategic alliance that could lead to a stronger representation of skills and expertise across a wider footprint. Apart from giving us an opportunity to contribute towards projects in the European market, this partnership offers our clients in India access to a world-class design team."

This partnership is about shared knowledge, experience and expertise and validates our business model, which at one level is about delivering global design projects out of India; and at another level is about bringing a globally relevant strategic design team to the Indian sub- continent. The DWW-Wave D&C partnership is a step forward in providing the best of global design resources to our respective clients in India and Europe, and look at a larger footprint and depth of services."

Filippo Fratti of Wave Design and Communication Srl, Milano, Italy says, "We are very happy to partner Design Worldwide and take our initial steps in the Indian market.

This partnership will make our offering larger, provide more depth, and enable us to build efficiencies through scale." He further adds, "In a world without borders, where every client is looking for added value, new experiences and different points of view, we think this partnership could be a big
