Saurabh Sharma — Co-Founder
I believe business has the power to be a transformative force for good, a truth I learned watching my father work alongside visionary leaders to build one of India's largest home fragrance manufacturing companies. A moment that defined my purpose: Years into the company's success, when a potential sale was being considered, a factory worker who had been with the company for decades approached the founder. With emotion in her voice, she said, "This business is our home. It changed my life. It put my child through school. You can't sell it." That day, I understood that a well-built business isn't just about profit. It's about creating opportunity that transforms lives across generations. Today, as Founder and CEO of Futurewagon, I lead a mission-driven organization bridging art with business and impact. We create, incubate, and scale purpose-driven brands like Alicia Souza, Happy Wagon, and Humanhood, reaching over one million customers with industry-leading repeat rates. Our work is guided by three core beliefs. First, talent deserves opportunity. While talent is universal, opportunity is not. We are dedicated to bringing economic prosperity to those who keep their soul song alive, whether they are artists, craftspeople, or factory workers. Second, art is a transformative force. In a world dominated by technology, we are reestablishing art as an essential element of everyday life, bringing joy, building communities, and fostering deeper connections. Third, business is a bridge. By connecting Indian creativity with global markets, we create sustainable pathways to prosperity that would not otherwise exist. The gap between extraordinary talent in India and the economic opportunities in western countries is a fundamental imbalance I am committed to addressing. Every brand we build and every product we create is designed to narrow this gap. Futurewagon is not just a business. It is a cultural movement creating a world where creative minds flourish and talent meets the opportunity it deserves. If you believe in the power of business to transform lives through opportunity, let’s connect.
