Raúl Palacios is a government-focused technology executive with over two decades modernizing public finance systems through cloud, AI and large-scale data platforms. At Microsoft he has led national tax and e‑invoicing programs across 40+ countries, architecting solutions that process hundreds of millions of transactions daily and embedding AI for compliance and anomaly detection. He blends CxO-level strategy with hands-on delivery—shaping reusable public-finance accelerators in partnership with OECD, IDB and regional tax authorities. Recognized internally with Peak Performer and Platinum Founders Club honors, Raúl pairs an MBA in Finance with rare field experience across developed and emerging markets. Less obvious: he routinely bridges vendor ecosystems and multilateral institutions to convert complex regulation into operational, cloud-native systems that measurably improve revenue collection and citizen services.
