Robert Khan is the man behind one of the most successful independent radio brands in the country.
Khan founded Radio Tarana in 1996 for Auckland's Indian and Hindu speaking communities.
He also created the first ethnic radio partnership with NZME on iHeart in 2014.
A year later he created a commercial joint venture with MediaWorks, the first of its kind with an independent ethnic broadcaster.
Radio Tarana's successful business model has been used to champion the cause of ethnic media, resulting in revenue increases for many ethnic media outlets throughout New Zealand.
