Meet Arooj…
Founder & futurist at the wealth visionaries collective
“As a futurist, I am not naive enough to believe I can predict the future — rather, I recognize that we create it every day. We choose our future in how we build businesses, allocate capital, and make choices in our own lives.” — Arooj Sheikh
What future do we want, ultimately?
The world can still be a place where everyone can access clean water, food, and shelter; where humans are healthier, happier, and live longer than ever; and where 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 to fundamentally reimagine our world and society at scale. We are a private community and think tank for high-level capital allocators, an intimate space in which we co-create a more abundant and optimistic version of the future.
“If 3 amazing people come together with high skills in complementary domains, the outcome isn’t 3x as big as they could’ve done on their own, it’s 30X or 300X. Great partnerships are as rare as they are powerful.” – A.H.
Our events are highly curated and we optimize for values, character, and integrity — and it shows in the experiences we create. We have had as much as 30-40% of attendees stay an *extra 3 hours* genuinely enjoying conversations after our events.
Community is at the core of all I do, believing that we create beautiful things through our collective creativity. My superpower is my infectious enthusiasm and ability to reframe things through a lens of optimism.
An adventurer at heart, I indulge in living abroad seasonally and love slow travel. I’ve lived in Istanbul, Buenos Aires, Melbourne, San Francisco, Austin, Singapore, and London is next. I enjoy wellness, world history, languages, and 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”
Michelangelo
