The Bridge is a new-age sports media publication based in Bengaluru, India. It was founded by Arshi Yasin and Shuvro Ghoshal in 2017. The company focuses on bringing about a positive change in the Indian sports ecosystem. The Bridge is completely focused on Indian Sports, with a special emphasis on Olympic Sports. They aim to bridge the gap in Indian sports and bring all the stories and the people behind into the spotlight.
The company released a corporate announcement on 16th July 2024 stating that one of the co-founders, Shuvro Ghoshal, has resigned from his position and is pursuing higher studies abroad. They spoke about his decision to do so and what it means for the company going forward. The statement read:
“TB Sports Network Private Limited announces that Co-founder Mr. Shuvro Ghoshal has resigned from his position and is pursuing higher studies abroad. This strategic move is driven by his desire to further his education and expand his horizons. While we are sad to see him leave, we are incredibly supportive of his decision and excited for the new opportunities that lie ahead for him.”

The statement also went on to talk about who will be leading the company and how their focus remains the same despite the departure of Shuvro Ghoshal. The statement continued:
“TB Sports Network Private Limited will continue to function under the leadership of Mrs. Arshi Yasin along with the seed investor Mr. Narendra Firodia & the dedicated team. We are committed to bridging the gap in Indian sports, providing unparalleled coverage and support for athletes, and promoting sports culture across the nation.”
“Despite this change, our mission remains steadfast. We are focused on fostering innovation, driving growth, and enhancing our offerings to ensure that we remain at the forefront of the sports media industry in India. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Shuvro for his contributions and wish him the very best as he embarks on this new chapter.”
Shuvro Ghoshal has always been involved in sports and the media. He started his professional career as a creative writer at Storypick and worked there for seven months before joining Sportskeeda as a Sports Editor. He worked with Sportskeeda and The Logical Indian before founding a company of his own. He started the company called ‘The Bridge’ alongside Arshi Yasin in 2017. He worked as the founder, content head, and product head of the company. In November 2023, he became a board member of Badminton Wales.
The Bridge, however, will move forward without him after his decision to resign from the company to pursue further studies abroad. Arshi Yasin will continue alongside a capable team to make sure that the company moves ahead without any problem and remains focused on their mission to cover sports in India, bringing attention to India’s sportspeople and helping enhance the level of sports in the country. This will be a very important step, especially with the 2024 Olympics, one of the main events covered by The Bridge, starting on 26th July 2024.
