Craig Kinnear Joins Panoplai to Lead Insights and Innovation

Kinnear brings a track record of building research functions from the ground up, most notably guiding executive teams through high-stakes transitions, including a $1.5 billion private acquisition. His background spans retail, ecommerce, and financial services, providing a foundation for his new role where he will bridge the gap between AI-driven data and actionable business strategy.

Panoplai, founded in 2021 as Glimpse, utilizes synthetic data models that claim 90% alignment with human benchmarks. CEO Neil Dixit highlighted Kinnear’s dual expertise in rigorous research and operational scaling as a key asset for the firm’s expansion.
