What does it take to reinvent yourself time and again? In this extraordinary episode of the SIG Learning Series, Rajan Lall—Founder, Chairman, and Managing Director of Garment Trims and Accessories (GTA)—shares his remarkable journey of resilience, reinvention, and strategic foresight. Moderated by Programme Head Karishma Bhansali Mehta, this session takes a deep dive into the life lessons of a business leader who has navigated industries, continents, and personal challenges with unwavering determination.

Born in Karachi and raised in Mumbai post-Partition, Rajan’s journey is anything but conventional. From a successful career in Bollywood to dubbing Hollywood classics like Schindler’s List into Hindi, to moving to Dubai at 53 to build a global business empire, his story is a testament to adaptability and vision. Since founding GTA in 2000—now operating under Mainetti, a world leader in hanger production—Rajan has led an enterprise that employs over 500 people across multiple countries, setting new standards in the garment trims and accessories industry.

In this candid conversation, Rajan reflects on the highs and lows of entrepreneurship, the power of strategic relationships, and his philosophy of innovation in niche markets. He also shares insights from his upcoming autobiography, I Did It My Way (March 2025), a deeply personal account of love, loss, betrayal, and wisdom.

Join us for an inspiring discussion filled with personal anecdotes, business insights, and behind-the-scenes stories that shaped Rajan Lall’s extraordinary legacy.
