Dhairya Nagpal
I build products, scale studios, and shape technology policy at the intersection of craft and consequence.
Right now
What I’m doing today
I founded and head the Product & UX Studio at Damco Group, leading UX engineering, pre-sales, delivery, quality governance, and R&D across 40+ active engagements in BFSI, healthcare, travel, enterprise AI, and agentic systems. Now transforming into an AI-native studio with an HCI research lab.
I lead the AI track for the United Nations Foundation’s Next Generation India Fellowship, co-authoring national tech policy frameworks, organising youth consultations, and representing India’s next generation at international forums.
I consult with GCCs, enterprise teams, and public-sector stakeholders on strategy, responsible tech adoption, and operationalising product and design. I am also a certified Enterprise Risk Trainer with IRM India.
