Hi, I am Bhaav-na

Chemical Engineer. Food Scientist. MBA

I believe food is Śakti — a source of power, transformation, and connection.

As a kid, it’s an odd thing to fall in love with manufacturing and production but I did. Maybe it was my “thatha” (grandpa’s) job as a factory worker. Or maybe it was the Maggi instant noodles that did it. There a core memory and a vision was born. I got curious about who designs systems that influence how our food is grown and transformed into products that nourish us.

Since then, I have dedicated 7 years in postgraduate education and 10 years of my work to solving diverse problems along the agri-food value chain.

Medical cannabis was an amazing crash course into all things Startup. Here I found how to take blank walls to production at scale.

Over time, I’ve grown into a community builder, trusted advisor and visible voice in the food and agribusiness. I am grateful for this career and I am only getting started!

Thank you for reading.

I would love to get to know you. Connect with me via email or LinkedIn!
