Meet Arooj…

“As a futurist, I am not naive enough to believe I can predict the future. But I am bold enough to share a vision of what it might look like — a mere possibility — knowing full well that we have the power to choose.” – Arooj Sheikh

We have the power to choose in the way we build businesses, the way we allocate capital, and the choices we make in our own lives. What future do we want, ultimately?

The world can still be a place where everyone has access to clean water, food, and shelter. Where humans are healthier, happier, and live longer than ever. We can still choose a world in which we have achieved abundance at scale for society and our systems are in harmony with nature.

How might we reimagine the worlds of wealth to be generative, rather than extractive?

Mission & Vision

Through the Wealth Visionaries Collective, we explore the intersection of ancient civilizations, exponential technologies, and wealth creation to redesign our society and the systems that drive it. It is an audacious and fundamental reimagination of the world. We are a private think tank for high-level capital allocators, an intimate space in which we co-create a more abundant and optimistic version of the future.

This is the thread that weaves itself through every endeavor Arooj embarks on. Other projects include a stealth-mode venture studio, an upcoming podcast, and a community of impact-driven women entrepreneurs. As a speaker, Arooj has shared her ideas across global stages such as the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Harvard University, the Startup World Cup, amongst several others. She helps select private clients to unlock more energy, purposeful action, and direction through mindfulness.

Community is at the core of all that she does, believing that we create beautiful things through our collective creativity. Her superpower is her infectious enthusiasm and ability to reframe things through a lens of optimism.

An adventurer at heart, Arooj indulges in living abroad seasonally and loves slow travel. She’s lived in Istanbul, Buenos Aires, Melbourne, San Francisco, Austin, and Singapore. Arooj enjoys wellness, exploring world cultures, history, languages, and several styles of dance including tango.

“The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark”

“I have never felt so seen as the person I always knew I could be. Not only did Arooj help me transform the way that I see myself as an entrepreneur, I see this reflected back to me in my business. I find myself finally feeling like I’m playing at the level I have always wanted.”
