Abhinav Sehgal, founder of SEO Designs Pvt. Ltd. and DigiUprise, has emerged as a transformative force in India’s digital marketing industry. Starting with just two people and one ambitious vision in a small room, Sehgal has built a thriving enterprise with over 50 team members spanning Delhi, Dwarka, Chandigarh, and Japan.
Turning Pandemic Challenges into Global Opportunities
When COVID-19 brought the world to a standstill, Sehgal saw unprecedented opportunity. Partnering with VLLDOIT, he successfully expanded SEO Designs into the Japanese market while simultaneously launching Learn Earn Guru, an affordable digital marketing training platform that attracted over 15,000 students. Despite facing a copyright challenge with Facebook over the “Learn and Earn” phrase, forcing the platform’s closure, Sehgal demonstrated remarkable resilience by pivoting to create DigiUprise.
Redefining Digital Education Standards
Today, DigiUprise operates training centers in Tagore Garden and Rajouri Garden, offering hands-on, industry-relevant education that equips students for success in India’s top companies. Sehgal’s approach goes beyond traditional “festival posts” marketing, integrating AI tools, business strategies, and real-world simulations to deliver comprehensive digital education.
Having served over 300 clients and managed advertising portfolios worth ₹1-2 crore monthly, Sehgal achieved a career milestone by leading the marketing for the World Marketing Summit 2020 with Dr. Philip Kotler at Vigyan Bhavan, Delhi. The event welcomed 1,800+ business leaders just before the pandemic.
Through his ventures, Sehgal continues reshaping how India perceives digital careers, proving that with persistence and vision, entrepreneurs can create lasting impact while building sustainable businesses.
