The business was set up in 2019. We recognised that Small and Medium businesses were really struggling to grow and often through no fault of their own. The founder or CEO was busy fire fighting and was working in the business rather than on the business.
Rohit Nanda is the Founder & CEO of the business and is instrumental in delivering value and serving the broader SME community. He has a knack for seeing the bigger picture, to visualise, propose and implement pragmatic & realistic solutions that adds immediate income to the bottom line.
Rohit realised that he had developed quite a diverse range of skills from 25 years of working in businesses of all sizes ranging from start-ups, to scaleups to some of the biggest companies in the world.
Rohit felt that the SME sector were under-served and given their importance to the local, national and international economies, it was imperative that something was done and hence in late 2019, Palgrave Consulting was born.
