Our Story

As the founder of this endeavor, my inspiration stems from a deep-seated belief that every child is a universe of potential waiting to be discovered. The world is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and with it, the skills our children need to navigate it successfully are changing too. At Sailboat Ventures, we've embarked on a mission to equip young minds with the life skills that extend far beyond the classroom, preparing them not just for exams but for life's intricate dance.

Surekha Shekar, Founder & CEO

SailBoat Ventures is a vision that has taken shape through my life experiences. I am a seasoned Technology professional with prior experience in leading, coaching & mentoring young professionals. Driven by my passion for coaching, I have had the privilege of working with school age children that has given me valuable insights into their struggles and needs in this technology era.

This gap in life skill awareness is hampering their ability to navigate life situations during early childhood and later years into adulthood. I have realized a sense of urgency to equip kids with the right skills which can help them grow into confident, compassionate adults who are well prepared to thrive in an ever-changing world.

These insights have been instrumental in my efforts to create an engaging, collaborative program where learning becomes fun and leads to a transformative experience. In the past few years many families have participated in this pilot program which has been hugely successful and provided an enriching platform where social connections blossomed into deeper friendships. This has further propelled my passion to launch Sailboat Ventures and take my dream and vision forward.

Join us on this exciting journey of exploration, discovery and empowerment. Together lets shape a generation that doesn’t just adapt to change but thrives in it!
