About Ipsa Bajaj
Strategic and Commercial Leader | Product Marketing | Growth Strategy | Ecosystem Engagement With over a decade of global experience across strategy, product marketing, and business development, I help organizations unlock growth through consumer insight, market expansion, and innovation strategy. Currently Director, Strategy & Market Forecasting at Philips, I advise C-suite executives, business leaders, and market stakeholders on global category direction, shape innovation pipelines, and drive go-to-market strategy and cross-functional alignment across a ~€3.5B Personal Health portfolio. This includes leading the end-to-end commercial launch of OneBlade Intimate — Philips’ first gender-neutral grooming product — across the US and Europe, from consumer validation and positioning to packaging and go-to-market execution. My background spans both large-scale corporate strategy and exposure to early-stage business models, through initiatives like the Philips Innovation Awards, where I’ve supported the evaluation of student-led startups. I bring a data-driven, financially grounded perspective from my M&A foundation at Barclays and Rabobank — combining strong commercial acumen with expertise in valuation, portfolio planning, and long-term investment prioritization. I’m energized by roles that combine strategic leadership, product-market fit, and long-term ecosystem value — whether in a scale-up, innovation function, or market-focused leadership role.
