Prakhar Pagaria — Partnerships Manager
I’m a partnerships and growth leader with 12+ years of experience building and scaling high-impact B2B ecosystems across the education and employee experience sectors. Currently, I serve as Associate Director – Partnerships at Amber, where I focus on identifying strategic opportunities, building long-term partner relationships, and driving sustainable revenue and market expansion across key regions. My work sits at the intersection of partnerships, go-to-market strategy, and execution — helping organizations grow through strong networks rather than just transactions. Previously, as Head of B2B Partnerships at StudyReach, I built and led a 25-member team and designed a structured business development engine that unlocked new revenue streams, strengthened existing accounts, and expanded the organization’s footprint with universities, mentors, and institutional partners globally. I also represented the brand at industry forums and global education events, acting as the face of the organization for partnerships and alliances. What I’m known for: • Building scalable partner programs from scratch • Turning relationships into predictable revenue channels • Creating structure and clarity in fast-growing, ambiguous environments • Developing and mentoring high-performing partnership teams I’m passionate about working in high-growth environments where partnerships are a strategic lever, not just a sales channel — and I’m always open to conversations around ecosystem building, strategic alliances, and growth leadership.
