Who we are

Meet the RIPLers

RIPL's organizational structure is designed to foster collaboration and innovation across disciplines, reflecting our commitment to holistic problem-solving in the public sector. We're primarily divided into two key divisions: Advancement and Delivery.

The Advancement division focuses on strategic initiatives, partnerships, and engagement, ensuring our work remains grounded in real-world policy needs.

The Delivery division brings together software engineers, data scientists, economists, and product innovators to execute and implement our projects.

This structure enables seamless integration of our three pillars—policy expertise, innovative technology, and data-informed strategies—throughout all levels of the organization. By encouraging cross-functional teamwork and knowledge sharing, we create an environment where diverse perspectives converge to develop comprehensive, evidence-based solutions for complex public sector challenges.

Executive Team

The Executive Team shapes RIPL’s vision and strategic direction, ensuring that all initiatives align with our mission to drive impactful change in the public sector.
