Richard Dolan

Rich is an established marketing veteran with over 20 years experience in IT. Working in the technology industry and witnessing its rapid change and evolution through acquisitions and changing market conditions, he developed a proactive approach to understanding and marketing the unique values of service offerings.

Working alongside executive leadership, Rich led the Datapipe marketing team for 17 years, presiding over messaging, press, and analyst engagements. He played a key role in growing the company and its reputation, leading to their recognition as a global pioneer and industry leading managed service provider by Gartner and Forrester Research.

Driven by his fascination with the intersection of art and technology, he studied engineering and 3D animation, graduating Summa Cum Laude from the New York Institute of Technology with a BA in Computer Graphics. Thanks to his grandfather, he developed an early appreciation for vocabulary and crosswords, and he still completes one nearly every day. Rich currently lives in New York with his wife and daughter.
