Dreaming for a living!

 

I had a Dream!

I have always dreamed of starting a company, and the desire burned deep within me. On introspection, I realised that I talked about it often, but as time passed, it seemed like words with no action to back them up. I had climbed the corporate ladder to a senior management position, with a corner office, a secure salary, and a small kingdom of my own😊. But despite my success, I still felt unfulfilled. 

By 2009,

the noise in my head grew louder, fueled by the joyful news of my first child's birth and the frustration of dealing with an unreasonable boss in Hong Kong. Even though my dream didn't have a concrete shape of a business plan or a promise from an investor, I knew there were globally professionally run brand licensing agencies and I understood the business of brands. The possibilities were waiting for me to take a leap of faith. With the unwavering support of my family, I finally shared my dream with my core team at work and decided to leave my cushy job behind.

Our Story

You may say I am a Dreamer but I am not the only one!

In a moment reminiscent of "Jerry McGuire", my team surprised me by saying they wanted to join me on this crazy journey. I hesitated, worried about their families and mortgages, knowing we had no concrete plan or investor lined up.

But their determination and belief in our shared dream gave me the courage to take that first step. It was Jibi, Sush, Liz, Bhavik, and Ameya. Together, we forged ahead into the unknown, armed with nothing but hope and determination. As we navigated the challenges and setbacks that inevitably came our way, I realised that sometimes, you only need a team of dreamers to turn a vision into reality. We may not have figured it all out back then, but our collective spirit and passion carried us through, proving that sometimes, the craziest dreams

are the ones worth chasing.

By 2010!

Our journey began with Dream Theatre in 2010, we chose a name that reflected our dreams and aspirations for both ourselves and our future clients. Inspired by the progressive rock band Dream Theater and the legendary Manchester United stadium, Old Trafford, we knew that we were destined for greatness.

We started our “Office” at a quaint Café in Bandra, Mumbai called Mocha Mojo. We showed up daily, ordered our cappuccinos, fired up our computers and brainstormed ideas. As we came in daily with the staff when the doors opened and left when they shut shop- The staff soon realised that this was our unofficial office. It was time to smell the coffee but just as we were about to face eviction, fate smiled upon us. The head of the Warner Bros. business called to move part of their business to us. It was our first big client!

Coffee shop to an apartment block!

So, picture this: we went from a cozy little coffee shop to a small apartment. It was an apartment I owned in a residential block that was our next pitstop until more business came our way.

This small space was a pitstop as we got evicted for real this time. The reason was that it was a residential complex that did not allow commercial enterprises. We made progress, hustled for more business, ran after every opportunity and guess what? We attracted some iconic businesses like Pokémon, and FIFA and trending businesses like Angry Birds, and WWE.

We were beneficiaries of lots of goodwill and support from well-wishers.

More clients, more business models,

and more press coverage followed,

propelling us further into

the limelight.

Fast forward 14 years,

lots of lessons learnt and mistakes made and we're still here, living the dream. It’s been a wild ride. But through it all, we've stayed true to our core beliefs and values. We are also proud that Dream Theatre has been privileged to train and work alongside some of the most skilled executives in India's brand licensing industry.

 

At Dream Theatre, we're all about "Dreaming for a living". We want to be the stage where our clients, team, and customers can see their wildest dreams come to life. And we do it all through the power of licensing, creating magical experiences for everyone involved.

But here's the real secret to our journey: our people. We've got the most passionate, dedicated team around, and we make sure to create a fun, supportive environment where they can thrive. Because at the end of the day, it's our team that makes all the magic happen.

 

So here's to many more years of dreaming, creating, and achieving our goals.

 

We can't wait to see what milestones lie ahead.
