Dear Karan
I think you can take this lead up. Offer to do the project free of
cost...for a take.
Tell them how Idiom too is a dream...of great design for India. So, we'll be
happy to support them.
Besides, we have both young designers and young design managers. And a set
of seasoned design and strategy mentors.
Go for it!
Regards
Sonia
