By – Dr. Vikram Kumar, Founder & Managing Director at SRV Media

“Union Budget 2026 goes beyond allocations to architect ecosystems – linking education, healthcare, creativity, and industry at scale. From university townships and regional medical hubs to content creator labs and design institutes, the focus is clearly on future skills and employability. For brands and institutions, this marks a shift from transactional communication to purpose-led narratives rooted in impact and innovation. As policy enables new talent pipelines and digital-first learning, strategic communication will be critical in building credibility, attracting stakeholders, and translating policy vision into measurable public trust and growth.”
