Rakesh Dosi
Chief Business & Product Officer, Protean
A seasoned technology and digital economy leader with 25+ years of experience, he has built, scaled, and transformed large businesses at the intersection of frontier technology, public digital infrastructure, and real-world societal outcomes. At Protean eGov Technologies, he leads Business, Product, and Innovation—driving design-to-execution across Government, Enterprise, and Distribution for the Indian market.
As India moves from Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) toward Digital Public Intelligence, he is focused on architecting next-generation “digital rails” that are interoperable, secure, and AI-ready—integrating AI, Blockchain, and Trusted Cloud to deliver population-scale trust, efficiency, and inclusion. His work bridges national policy vision with enterprise implementation, helping institutions adopt regulated innovation with speed, resilience, and strong governance.
He has consistently delivered business growth by building high-performing teams across strategy, sales, alliances, presales, and product/solution leadership, spanning both growth-stage and large-scale enterprises. His sector expertise includes Banking, Insurance, Capital Markets, Technology, Manufacturing, and Distribution—particularly where trust infrastructure, compliance, and scale are mission-critical.
A strong advocate of India’s frugal innovation advantage, he believes the next phase of digital finance leadership will be defined by trusted ecosystems, responsible AI deployment, and talent readiness—where innovation directly translates into skilling, employment, and inclusive growth.
