Biography:
Having realized that technology is a great enabler for every aspect of modern life, Rahul Ranjan, Co-founder, and CEO of Palacio is using the latest technology to transform the way we look at art. With the mission to bring all forms of art including traditional art, photography, and digital art(NFT) to every space, he wants to continue his business’s leadership position in both technology, innovation, and the way users can experience art via a different medium in the best possible way.
From Rahul’s early childhood, he was always fascinated by art. He used to paint and participate in many local and state-level Art competitions. Even being a greenhorn in the domain, he deeply appreciated both the creative imagination and equally difficult task to carve it out on a canvas.
Due to family tradition, he opted for the technology domain. He completed his B-Tech degree in ECE from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. Then, he progressed to complete his M.S in Computer Engineering from Wayne State University and attained his MBA degree in General Management, Entrepreneurship, and Strategic Financing from the University of Virginia – Darden Graduate School of Business Administration.
He stepped into the corporate world as Research Engineer at CDOT New Delhi. Then he climbed the ladder to grab different roles and gain valuable experience. Before Palacio, he worked in big corporations such as Intel, Qualcomm, TP-LINK, etc.
His last job at TP-LINK was full of excitement. TP-LINK smart home products were extremely competitive. However, due to growing competition in the space, market dominance was always under threat. TP-LINK always pursued standalone smart home product offerings, and the concept of ecosystem development was unknown. After multiple internal strategy sessions, he steered the executive team to grow smart home ecosystem partners.
