Speaking on the eve of the inauguration, Toonz CEO Mr. P. Jayakumar said, “Setting up an Academy in Mumbai was on the cards for a long time, because the city is the biggest entertainment hub in the country. We are thrilled that our plans have come to fruition.”

“The animation industry is facing a dearth of trained talent and the growing demand-supply gap in manpower availability is hampering its growth. The new Academy is a step in the right direction to solve this problem,” Mr. Jayakumar added

Toonz Academy will leverage its strong industry network to help students find suitable positions in reputed multimedia studios and companies.
