Frankfinn, founded in 1993 by K. S. (Kulvinder Singh) Kohli, provides training for careers in cabin crew, airport ground staff, air ticketing, hospitality, travel management, and customer service.

Hashtag Orange, founded by Mukesh Vij, operates across strategy, creative, media, technology, and performance marketing. The agency has been building its presence in the education and skilling sector, and this mandate adds a high-profile client to that vertical.

Why it matters for digital marketers
For digital marketing professionals and agencies tracking account movements in India, this mandate signals continued investment by legacy education brands in digital-first communication strategies. Frankfinn’s decision to appoint an integrated partner rather than separate creative and media agencies reflects a broader industry trend toward consolidated, data-driven marketing approaches.

The mandate also underscores the importance of cultural insight in reaching Gen Z. Frankfinn’s chairman specifically cited the agency’s understanding of Gen Z as a deciding factor, suggesting that brands in the education space are prioritising authentic, platform-native communication over traditional advertising.

What the leaders said
Commenting on the partnership, K. S. (Kulvinder Singh) Kohli, Founder and non-executive Chairman, Frankfinn Group, said, “Frankfinn has always believed in staying ahead of the curve, whether it was reimagining what aviation training should look like three decades ago, or reimagining how we speak to the young minds of today. Partnering with Hashtag Orange is a step in that direction. We were drawn to the honesty, cultural insight, and technology-led thinking they bring to their work, and we are confident that same understanding of Gen Z will help us tell the Frankfinn story in a way that feels real and relevant to this generation.”

Mukesh Vij, Founder, Hashtag Orange, added, “Frankfinn’s over 33-year legacy in aviation and hospitality training is the kind of brand story we love working with, built on real substance, not just messaging. Our approach will bring data, cultural insight, and technology together to help that legacy resonate with Gen Z at every touchpoint where they’re discovering and evaluating their career choices.”
