With almost 30 years of experience in the media and entertainment industry, Gilby has worked extensively across the Asia Pacific region, holding prominent positions at companies such as The Walt Disney Company, Warner Media, and PwC. His experience spans key markets like China, India, Australia, and Southeast Asia.
Prior to joining Dentsu, Gilby served as president of APAC at Nielsen, where he worked on strengthening relationships with media owners, brands, and agencies to provide audience insights across the media ecosystem.
