Founder
A Practitioner Running Real Campaigns Daily.
Shayan Banday is the Founder and Digital Marketing Strategist at Harmukh Technologies. For 7+ years he has been building and running performance marketing campaigns for clients across India, the UAE, the UK, the US, and Australia, from a base in Srinagar, Kashmir, operating under STPI, Ministry of Electronics & IT (MeitY).
Before Harmukh, Shayan was a hip-hop artist and music producer, covered by Rolling Stone India as one of Kashmir's most recognised hip-hop producers. That chapter closed, but the instinct it built, for narrative, timing, and what makes something actually land, runs directly through every campaign and every mentorship session at Harmukh.
When Kashmir's internet was shut down in 2019, Shayan's story was documented by The Guardian and Mint as one of the young Kashmiri entrepreneurs who had built something real, then watched it disappear overnight. The internet came back. So did Harmukh. Sharper, faster, and now running campaigns for a global client base while building the next generation of digital marketers from Kashmir.
Shayan also hosts Walk the Talk with Shayan, a podcast on current and future leaders of Kashmir. Builders, thinkers, and changemakers shaping the valley on their own terms. Kashmir's stories, told by Kashmiris.
