Leadership

The people who built the Group.

Paragon Holdings was built by individuals who combined operational expertise with entrepreneurial conviction, guided by fearlessness and compassion in equal measure.

01 · Founder & Group Managing Director

Anup
Nambiar

Anup Nambiar founded Paragon Shipping & Logistics in Doha, Qatar in 2006, establishing the company with a vision to bring operational rigour and technological innovation to Gulf logistics. Over the following decade, he built a GCC-wide logistics business across Qatar, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Bahrain before the Group's evolution into a multi-sector holding company.

Anup's entrepreneurial identity is defined by two principles: Nirbhau (fearlessness) in entering demanding markets, and Nirvair (compassion) in building relationships. These principles guided the Group through the 2017 Qatar embargo and underpinned the landmark QatarEnergy LNG contract in 2022.

Today, Anup serves as Group Managing Director of Paragon Holdings Sdn. Bhd., overseeing a portfolio of companies across three countries, while remaining personally involved as a founding member of Redlogik's leadership team.
