Ryan Patel Biography
Ryan Patel, a global business executive, is widely regarded as a thought-leader in global business and an expert in scaling companies and brands. His deep knowledge in economies, innovation, strategy, and consumer trends has made him an expert in growing public traded companies, as well as startups, worldwide. He is a frequent CNN contributor and is a Senior Fellow with the Drucker School of Management at Claremont Graduate University.
Patel’s experience includes growing a young company into a global leader, Pinkberry, which enticed him to become the Vice President of Global Development. During his tenure, the company had gone from less than 95 locations to over 270 stores in 23 countries (North America, Europe, MENA, Asia and Latin America), making it one of the fastest growing retail brands at the time. Patel’s unique and inherent knowledge of the ever-changing nature of trends and how it impacts business has been vital in providing valuable strategy and leadership in developing domestic and international growth plans across multi-cultural and cross-functional teams. He has been a key player at some of the world’s most innovative companies such as Wet Seal Retail, Inc. (Arden B and Wet Seal), Jamba Juice, BJ’s Restaurants, Inc. and Panda Restaurant Group Inc. (Panda Express).
Patel is a strong believer in giving back to the community and paying it forward. He currently serves on several advisory boards ranging from social responsibility to technology and a Board of Director at the American Red Cross LA. His passion for combining social good and business has led him to discuss relevant and real-world situations which are accessible to both students and professionals alike. He is also a trainer at the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center. In 2015, he was awarded “Executive of the Year” by the Los Angeles Business Journal and received Special United States Congressional Recognition for outstanding services to the community. In 2017, Inc. listed him as one of nine executives and innovators who serve as an inspiration for how all businesses can make a difference. He recently received the 2018 “Connect” Award for Business Leader of the Year, by NAAAP SoCal.
He has been featured in CNN, BBC, CGTN, Entrepreneur, WWD, Nasdaq and more. He accompanies his literary talents with both domestic and international keynote appearances at company meetings and universities. He received his Bachelors from the University of California, Berkeley and received his MBA from the Paul Merage School of Business at University of California, Irvine. He most recently received his Corporate Governance and Board of Directors Certification from the University of California, Los Angeles Anderson School of Management Executive Program.

Ryan Patel Speaking Topics
Entrepreneurs don't wait to adapt to change—they drive it. And with remote work dissolving boundaries right and left, any entrepreneur looking to scale their business and career needs to foster a more global mindset. In this talk, Ryan Patel shows you how, detailing why it's critical to think globally and how to put this new mindset into practice.
Before showing how to layer on a more international perspective, Ryan shares how to evaluate your current mindset. He then goes over how to take advantage of your status as a remote worker to help yourself and others become more global thinkers. After helping you set your foundation, he provides tips for building your expertise through deep research, scaling your personal network, and signaling to the world that you're a leader who’s ready to build globally.
The perception of the term “franchise” has evolved dramatically from 10 years ago to now. Within the past several years, countries from all across the globe have sought and accepted a proliferation of franchise concepts from the United States and other developed countries. Franchises have been able to enter into many countries and grow at a rapid pace. New franchise opportunities become the focus of local news stories and weave their way into daily conversations in the local regions between customers, friends and even students in the classroom. Ryan Patel coaches entrepreneurs and provides guiding principles in evaluating opportunities.
How does fashion and food go together? Ryan Patel will explain the trends that are happening not just within the US, but on a global level. As someone who understands the retail business, he has quickly developed relationships and experiences with major department stores to the smallest food kiosks. He’ll explain how brands you love sometimes have strategies that intertwine.
For many looking from the outside in, global expansion and entering new markets seems to be a “no brainer.” One can only wish it was that easy. The world is a large place with key differences from country to country which can support different business models. Ryan Patel will provide different strategies and illustrate key principles to provide stories and examples of other brands. Patel offers a unique and rare glimpse to audiences in balancing business development needs and protecting the brand. From lessons learned to shared values, global expansion appears to have a blank canvas with an unlimited amount of opportunities to add a splash of color.
We live in a society where leaders do not have to just lead by example, but need to build highly effective teams to accomplish consistently higher goals. Ryan Patel has gained insight from many of the top CEOs and will take you on a journey from lessons learned and his philosophy in how to succeed.
