Words by Iain Ball

I’m a writer and editor based in Cambridge, UK. I started out working on newspapers and magazines in India, where I helped launch Vogue India, Indian GQ and Time Out Delhi.

Since 2013, I’ve been helping start-ups and established brands discover their voices and tell compelling stories, including Hotel Chocolat, Nationwide Building Society and InterContinental Hotels.

I’m always learning from the people I meet, and this journey shapes my writing. People-focused stories are at the heart of what I do.

“Dear Iain, on behalf of everyone at Conde Nast India, a big, big thank you for your big, big contribution to Vogue and GQ – you have left an indelible mark on both.”
– Alex Kuruvila, Managing Director, Conde Nast India

“Iain can capture the essence of a brand in lean, muscular prose
that's punchy and attention-grabbing. Highly recommended.”
– Angus Thirlwell, Co-Founder, Hotel Chocolat
