More about Radhika Lakhotia

A number cruncher turned architect, turned boundary-pushing female founder. I am passionate about sustainability and believe in the power of innovation to transform waste into wonder, a mission I am pursuing relentlessly with wastED.

wastED, my newest brainchild, was born out of a vision to create a healthier and more sustainable world, one grain at a time. We're upcycling spent grains into a nutritious, affordable superfood - BSG flour, also known as The Fit Flour - a tribute to the vibrant spirit of redefining food byproducts!

Venturing beyond architecture, I have found my calling in the equity market and have kindled my entrepreneurial spirit with ventures like Morph, a B2B platform for conscious luxury Indian handicrafts and furniture where we have tied up with companies like Pepperfry and Scarlett Spendlour in Kolkata. I am also actively building Kamlamrit, a brand dedicated to healthy snacking.

As a hands-on founder, I'm often found in the trenches, micromanaging and scrutinising details. Because, in my books, perfection is not just an aspiration, it's a way of life.

Despite my rigorous routine, I cherish a good old cup of chai and stimulating conversations. If you share similar interests or just love an intriguing chat, I'd love to connect. I enjoy being in a room with people who are smarter than me, and have more to contribute to the discussion - I’m learning to listen more deeply.
