His involvement in a start-up company that expanded from 10 to 5000 employees over the course of 15 years enabled him to develop a profound grasp of how to optimize manufacturing cost reduction early in the design process.

Bharat Gaurav Mr. Rahul Puranik - Chairman Sawnee Group of Companies - USA
Rahul Puranik is the chairman of the Sawnee Group of companies, a global multinational company that specializes in seven core industries: Hospitality, Distillery, Beverage Retail, Real Estate Investments, Strategic Procurement for the United Nations, Aviation Cargo, and Healthcare Supplies Distribution. Sawnee Group is based in Atlanta with offices in France, Ireland, and Singapore.
Rahul grew up in a middle-class, educated joint family in Vile Parle in Mumbai. His grandparents had a heavy influence on his upbringing and values, which include family, integrity, modesty, ethics, and giving back to the community. In 1990, at the age of 18, Rahul went to the United States for his undergraduate studies with just enough money for his first year. While working several side jobs, Rahul graduated from the University of Alabama with a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering. After completing his education and working as an electrical engineer, he studied to be a commercial pilot and got his certified commercial license on a multi-engine plane. Soon after, Rahul developed an interest in winemaking and the backend processes that go into it. After moving to Atlanta, Rahul joined the School of Horticulture in Buckhead, which allowed him to venture into foreign vineyards. He ended up investing in vineyards in Australia, which was very profitable and helped him kick off his entrepreneurship journey.
This venture led him into a new set of endeavors. With his newfound knowledge of the liquor industry, a few years of experience shadowing at liquor stores, and the strong support of his wife, Swapna, he started building beverage malls in South Georgia. He started with Lagrange Beverage. He built the store from scratch and developed a working business model for it based on the customers. A few years later, once the business had become a successful well-oiled machine, he sold it to build a new store. This process continued with his next couple of beverage outlets: Columbus Beverage and Global Beverage. He currently owns both locations of the Macon Beverage outlet, one of which is the largest liquor store in Georgia.
While pursuing the beverage business, Rahul also ventured into the hospitality industry in a similar way. He started by investing in a Hyatt Place, then followed through by building a Courtyard by Marriott, a Wingate by Wyndham in Ohio, and a Ramada Suites in Georgia. Along a similar timeline, Rahul also attempted to further his interest in the aviation industry by launching three startup airlines in Southeast Asia.
Through his experience over the years, Rahul has come to believe that failures should not be seen as discouragement, but rather opportunities to get back up and try again. Like many other entrepreneurs, Rahul’s business career has had its fair share of failed projects, but each one taught Rahul something new and showed him how to propel himself forward. 
Currently, Rahul’s main focus is his distilling company Maison D’ Puranique, which is based in Southern France. The first product, a liquor made from Indian Alphonso mangos (Jus D’ Manguier), was launched in 2012 and won the first prize at the Atlanta Battle of the Bottles in 2014. Since then, the company has started distilling more spirits, including Mangeaux (an Alphonso mango liqueur made from Cognac), Puranique Vodka, Sweet Croissant wines, and more. Puranique Vodka won the Best Vodka Award, the Best Spirit Award, and the Best in the Category (from France) Award at the London Spirit Competition in 2018. The newest and most successful launch was of the Puranique Cognac which launched in Spring 2022.
Aside from his business endeavors, Rahul has also been very involved in giving back both globally and on a community level. Rahul has been working with the United Nations peacekeeping forces with individuals from all over the world since 2015.
Furthermore, when the pandemic hit in 2020, Rahul channeled his efforts and resources to create a healthcare company, Sawnee Healthcare, to support the State of Georgia emergency services. Sawnee Healthcare efficiently imported hand sanitizers, medical kits, masks, and other personal protection equipment from foreign nations and distributed them to hospitals all over Georgia.
Johns Creek, Georgia has been Rahul and Swapna’s home for the past twenty years, where they have built a strong and supportive friend circle and raised two kids. For the past eight years, Rahul has been mentoring high school and college students from the community. So far, he has worked with over 150 students. Rahul advises them to follow their dreams and keep their goals in mind, as he has, rather than just doing what others do. Through this mentoring, Rahul hopes to continue to help the next generation channel their efforts to realize their aspirations.

Bharat Gaurav Acharya Sambuddh - Yogi Gabon, Africa
From the land of ancient wisdom comes a voice, the voice of the modern generation. A voice of calmness in a world of chaos. A voice of clarity in a world of confusion. A voice of freedom in a world of fear. A voice of compassion in a world of cruelty. The voice of an awakened being, the voice of Sambuddh. Sambuddh is an awakened yogi and an enigmatic mystic of our times. He took birth as the first son of Smt. Rani and Shri Mahavir Jain on 8th July 1985 in Kota (India). Since childhood, he was always in his world of wonder and curiosity. And as he was growing up, his innocence, and inquisitiveness increased. The urge to know the unknown became more intense. Sambuddh used to spend hours contemplating existential questions such as 'Is there something which is beyond all what I see or perceive? What is reality? Who am I?, Why is there so much suffering in the world?, and What is the purpose of my existence? These questions became the driving force for him to push into the spiritual realm. Sambuddh left his home at the age of 18 in search of his answers.
In this time of exploration, he traveled extensively across India. Learned yoga, lived in monasteries and ashrams, did intense sadhanas, thoroughly read scriptures as well as studied modern science, neuroscience, and psychology. After intense dedication and devotion, it was in November 2016, in a monastery in Jankichatti (Himalayas), Sambuddh attained total disidentification with the mind and entered Samadhi. He completely transcended and entered into nothingness and absolute silence. In those moments of silence, something happened. Something that happens once in a millennium, something that happens to one in millions. And as the morning star rose in the sky, a whole new being opened his eyes. When the head monk of that monastery looked at him - the first word that came out of the monk's mouth when looked at this new being was the word "Sambuddh".
His profound wisdom and desire to serve humanity and deep understanding of life brought him connections with many influential world leaders and celebrities, and he worked as a spiritual guide to many such dignitaries. Sambuddh’s methods for self-transformation are direct and powerful backed up by science. One of Sambuddh’s unique contributions to the process of self-transformation is the Mahapran Kriya, which the infinite has bestowed upon him during his meditation retreat in Devprayag, India. He has also founded the Sambodhi Foundation in London, with the ultimate aim to nurture collective consciousness, love, compassion, and global harmony through spiritual awakening. And also led many social movements to raise the living conditions of underprivileged and downtrodden sections of society through the foundation. Several humanitarian and social projects are running successfully across the globe under his guidance. Several lives have been transformed by his divine presence and many more lives are waiting to bathe in this river of love and compassion.

Bharat Gaurav Mrs. Tanya Shukla - Founder Dome Vitamins UK
Tanya Shukla, Director of three highly successful businesses in the UK. I work in conjunction with my sister Shagun Shukla to manage all these businesses.
After completing my degree at King’s College London, I worked in the pharmaceutical sector at GlaxoSmithKline and AstraZeneca, NHS hospitals, and community pharmacies as a qualified Pharmacist. Following this I got involved in the management of a nursing home we own in Gloucestershire, which provides residential and dementia care to the elderly. Since acquiring the business in 2012, we have worked tirelessly to transform it to be one of the leading nursing homes in the region. Under our guidance, the business value has tripled and turnover has more than doubled. It has a reputation second to none. We have also created several jobs for local and overseas nationals. We employed over 20 people with Indian nationality who now work for our organization. We also helped them settle in well in the local community by helping them with accommodation and assisting with immigration applications for their families. Not only are we the biggest employer in the local town of Fairford, but we are also known to be compassionate and excellent at providing care and serving the locals.
In November 2022, we launched the UK’s revolutionary supplements brand focusing on women’s health. Combining my sister’s business expertise and my medical and pharmaceutical background we founded “Dome Vitamins”. Dome Vitamins delivers clinically validated active ingredients using luxury chocolate as a carrier.
