Code and Theory names Harsh Kapadia head of enterprise creative. Creative Agency ADD TO COLLECTION 15/07/2026 Harsh Kapadia will launch and lead Code and Theory's new Creative Enterprise division Code and Theory has appointed Harsh Kapadia as head of enterprise creative. As enterprise marketers navigate rapidly shifting customer expectations, platform change and AI-driven transformation, the work requires more than great ideas. It requires a modern creative engine that connects brand narrative to the systems that power experience, performance and decision-making. Harsh will establish and lead enterprise creative, supporting the company's growing enterprise relationships, including Adobe and IBM and expanding how Code and Theory brings creative leadership into transformation programmes. Harsh joins Code and Theory after serving as chief creative officer of Grey India, returning to New York with a two-decade career spanning four continents and leadership roles across Asia, Australia, Europe and North America. His work has helped shape brands and businesses for some of the world's most influential organisations, including Google, Kraft, United States Postal Service, Reckitt, P&G, Motorola, LEGO, New Balance, Diageo, Ford and the Australian Government. Harsh's appointment comes as Code and Theory continues to deepen its partnership with Adobe, including the debut of the Creative Intelligence System (CIS) at Adobe Summit. Code and Theory also announced the Content Operating System for Sports (COS) at Cannes. CIS and COS are the first solutions resulting from a three-year co-development effort between Code and Theory and Adobe's Partner Solutions Group. Harsh said, "Creativity is an engine for scale, not just a communications function. Joining Code and Theory is an opportunity to fuse deep insights with technology, data, and design so our work does more than just launch, it alters behaviour, unlocks enterprise value, and shapes culture." Craig Elimeliah, chief creative officer at Code and Theory said, "Harsh is the rare creative leader who can move seamlessly between brand meaning and business reality, between craft and systems thinking. As we build our Creative Enterprise division and expand relationships with our enterprise partners, Harsh will help define what enterprise creativity looks like when it's connected end-to-end: from insight to experience to impact."

Stagwell's Code and Theory has partnered with Adobe to launch the Creative Intelligence System, the first solution from a three-year co-development initiative. The system connects customer data with creative development, addressing the gap where intelligence typically goes dark during the creative process. The initial rollout targets financial services at Adobe Summit 2026. The system leverages Adobe Real-Time CDP to generate synthetic AI personas from segment data, enabling marketers to test messaging and creative concepts before finalising decisions. It integrates with Adobe GenStudio for Performance Marketing and Experience Manager. The solution is powered by Stagwell's AI platform and Code and Theory's marketing operating system, The Machine. The partnership will expand to other sectors including B2B, sports and media, where Code and Theory has established expertise.
