Sheila Bangalore

Director, Games Global

Sheila Bangalore honed her complex transactional experience over 20+ years in senior roles in public and private multinational health, technology (B2B/C), and specialty materials businesses, including SpringTide Ventures, Bally Technologies (NYSE: BYI), Aristocrat Gaming (ASX: ALL), Zappos.com (an Amazon affiliate), and MP Materials (NYSE: MP). Sheila’s accomplishments reflect a track record of growing and scaling businesses, developing risk mitigation strategies, compliance and governance expertise, and leading complex operational initiatives, including M&A and related integration, IPOs and significant fundraising.

Currently, Sheila serves as a board member of Games Global Limited, a B2B technology company with 1,100+ global team members, where she serves as Chair of the Risk & Compliance Committee and as a member of the Audit and Nominations/Governance Committees. As a board advisor for Paloma Health, a VC-backed health-tech start-up, Sheila supports the company’s management team through a combination of business experience, fundraising acumen and strategic introductions. In any environment, Sheila is a natural connector and regularly creates collisions across her evergreen network. Whether she’s speaking or writing about board governance and leadership, as she did at The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, the Nasdaq Center for Board Excellence or Harvard Law School, or mentoring promising entrepreneurs and CEOs, Sheila enjoys helping people succeed.

Previously, Sheila served as the Chief Strategy Officer, General Counsel and Secretary of MP Materials (NYSE: MP), a company she took public on the NYSE. MP's IPO raised $545mm in capital. At MP, Sheila promoted the company’s sustainability and optimization strategies, driving MP’s progress through its $600mm green convertible notes offering and a $9.6mm grant from the U.S. Department of Defense. Prior to her role at MP, Sheila occupied senior business and legal roles, growing and scaling technology businesses at Aristocrat, Zappos.com and Bally Technologies.

Sheila received her MBA in Finance from The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania; her JD from the Washington University School of Law in St. Louis; and her BA from Tufts University. She serves as Co-Editor for e-Khabbar, a digital newsletter supporting cultural awareness of the North American Konkani community. In her spare time, Sheila gets excited about experimenting with new recipes, global travel, and improving her skills on the squash courts (at times, frustratingly slowly).
