Rohan PasariFounder

Singapore - Singapore

I co-founded Cialfo with the vision to make education accessible for 100 million students globally. Cialfo is an AI-driven platform that brings together people, software, and data to simplify college and career counseling workflows.

My first venture, a tech-enabled education consultancy, was acquired by a private equity firm in 2017. Headquartered in Singapore, Cialfo has raised 3 rounds of funding and is experiencing rapid growth with offices in the US, China, and India. Cialfo is used by thousands of students and educators around the world, from high schools to leading colleges.

I was recently honored as a 2020 member of the prestigious 35 Under 35 class, awarded by Singapore’s EDGE organization to young entrepreneurs for their contributions to innovation and the startup community.

I regularly speak at conferences across the globe, including ASU-GSV, SXSWedu, EdTech Asia, GET, and MIT GSW summits. When I'm not thinking of new ways to reimagining education, I can be found biking, dancing bachata or diving off boats to explore the underwater world.
