New Delhi, May 7

Indian journalist Palki Sharma has announced the launch of India Global Review, a global media company headquartered in India.

IGR is a digital-first platform focused on world affairs, with a distinctly Indian lens. With a planned rollout across the United States, Europe, West Asia, South Asia and Africa, among other regions, IGR will be available across leading internet platforms as well as connected television (CTV) ecosystems.

The company has secured backing from distinguished institutional investors, providing a strong financial foundation as it enters its initial phase of operations and scales its global footprint.

Speaking on the launch, IGR Founder Palki Sharma said, "India is no longer just part of the global conversation; it is shaping it. With India Global Review, we aim to build a credible, independent platform that brings clarity to world affairs through an Indian lens. In a noisy, polarised media landscape, our focus will be on facts, context and perspective, because how you see the world shapes what you believe."

Reflecting the scale of its ambition to set up international bureaus and a global network of reporters, IGR has launched a hiring drive across editorial, production and digital roles in multiple geographies.

Palki Sharma is an award-winning journalist with more than 24 years of experience across television, print and digital media. She recently stepped down as Managing Editor of Firstpost at Network18 to launch IGR.

As an international reader, I'm genuinely excited about this. The 'Indian lens' is often missing from mainstream coverage of global affairs. Will be interesting to see how they cover stories from South Asia and beyond.

Good initiative but I hope this doesn't become another echo chamber. 'Indian lens' shouldn't mean just cheerleading for government policies. Need balanced journalism that questions authority when needed. Let's see if they walk the talk.

Palki Sharma is one of the most credible journalists we have. She brings 24 years of experience, and her work at WION and Firstpost was top-notch. If anyone can pull this off, it's her. The investor backing shows confidence too! 🚀

A digital-first global media company based in India with bureaus worldwide? That's ambitious. I hope they focus on factual reporting and not propaganda. The media landscape is already too polarised globally.

This is exactly what we need - Indian voices in international media. Whether it's geopolitics, trade, or climate change, our perspective matters. I'm signing up for their newsletter already! 📰
