Summary
Patrick Perry is a GTM and business development leader with 11 years' experience scaling revenue and partnerships across drones, GIS, utility solar, and inspection markets. He has driven hypergrowth—transforming user bases and MRR at VirBELA and building enterprise ACV programs at DroneBase—while negotiating multi-national regulatory and commercial partnerships at Iris Automation. Comfortable at the intersection of technical product, field operations, and sales, Patrick combines civil engineering and LEED sensibilities with drone and battery-storage domain expertise to turn complex asset workflows into repeatable GTM plays. A serial operator and board member, he’s equally at home structuring contracts as he is advising AI-driven analytics and mapping platforms. Outside work he’s an environmentalist, surfer, and drone enthusiast who often translates field realities into product differentiation.
