Sainath Gurav, M.Sc., M.B.A. — Co-Founder
As the Founder of STHAAR Consulting, a strategic advisory firm supporting diverse organizations—especially MSMEs—I’m passionate about helping businesses grow sustainably. We rethink how business is done, how products are made, and how services are delivered. With a strong focus on sustainability-led innovation, we collaborate with subject matter experts and innovation partners to develop tailored strategies that enable our clients to create lasting impact and build future-ready organisations. Our team's efforts are centered on enhancing client business processes, securing funding, and implementing innovative strategies aligned with the current needs of the planet. We take pride in unlocking the regenerative potential of businesses by implementing strategies that promote material and product circularity—empowering the dynamic MSME sector to build enduring, generational companies. As the Founder of Kwanzaa Lifestyle, I am grateful for the opportunity to advocate for a regenerative lifestyle and build a sustainable D2C brand for both Indian and international communities. Our sustainable lifestyle products focus on minimizing waste, alleviating animal suffering, empowering marginalized communities, and promoting a circular fashion. This collaborative spirit extends to my role with ITS India and SPRUCE (Specialists providing Road User Charging Expertise), where I contribute as a subject matter expert, crafting sustainable mobility solutions for policy makers, policy entrepreneurs and industry players focused on fostering sustainable travel in India.
