Eshan Ponnadurai (Meta) | Begin with the End at Mind

The CMO Podcast

May 22 2024 • 50 mins

The guest today on The CMO Podcast is Eshan Ponnadurai, the Vice President of Consumer Marketing at META, the 1.2 trillion dollar company by market cap, with a brand portfolio that includes Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, Threads, and Messenger.

Eshan is a man of many interests, with a voracious curiosity. He was born in Sri Lanka, and moved to Australia when he was four years old. He now lives in New York City with his wife and two boys. Eshan began his professional career at Procter & Gamble Asia, and then began a series of assignments with blue-chip tech companies like YouTube, Google, AirBnB, Uber, and WhatsApp, before taking on a broader role as Vice President of Consumer Marketing for META.

Eshan once believed that advertising and marketing were the same thing...until he joined P&G and got shocked. Tune in for a conversation with a marketer who has looked to be accountable in every role he's led.
