RelPro, a business development and B2B data platform serving financial and professional services firms appointed Raaj Rajmangal as CEO as the company marks its 10th anniversary.
Founder Martin Wise will transition from CEO to executive chairman of the board, where he will continue to provide strategic guidance as the company enters its next phase of growth.
The leadership transition reflects both continuity and evolution at RelPro, which has been built over the past decade through customer partnerships, data innovation, and a focus on accuracy, efficiency and high-quality service.
Wise founded RelPro to address the lack of a single, reliable source of information on companies and business executives in the B2B market. Under his leadership, the company grew into a partner for financial institutions and professional services firms, particularly those serving the small- and mid-sized business market. RelPro is used by 75% of the top 20 U.S. banks.
“Raaj has been an integral part of RelPro’s growth since the beginning,” Wise said. “He has helped shape our product, our data strategy, and our customer-first culture. As we mark RelPro’s 10-year milestone, this is the right moment for him to lead and execute the next chapter of RelPro’s growth. I’m excited to support him and the company as executive chairman.”
Rajmangal has held several leadership roles during his tenure at RelPro, including chief technology officer, before being named president in April 2023. He has played a key role in expanding the company’s proprietary data origination platform, improving product experience and strengthening client relationships.
“I’m honored to lead RelPro at such a meaningful moment in the company’s journey,” Rajmangal said. “Martin has led the company’s growth through a focused strategy emphasizing client and partner relationships, and high-quality actionable data. As CEO, my focus is to build on that legacy while expanding how we help clients leverage data and AI to drive growth, deepen relationships, and increase operating efficiency.”
“We’ve built deep partnerships with many of the nation’s most innovative banks and credit unions,” Rajmangal said. “With our growing Data-as-a-Service capabilities, we’re well-positioned to expand into a wider range of B2B market segments as they invest in relationship-driven growth and AI-enabled strategies.”
