Work Essentials #5 Powered by nature

About the session

There is incredible power in the natural world around us. From the food we eat to the clothes we wear, it’s easy to forget that we are simply borrowing these precious resources. Boheco is an agro-based enterprise which uses hemp to create everything from pet care to nutritional products. They believe that this one plant showcases the power of nature at its best.  Dr. Sheth’s is a dermatologist formulated luxury skincare range designed exclusively for Indian skin by three generations of skin doctors. They believe in the powerful confluence of Ayurveda, botanicals and western medicine and have created a range of skincare products which harness the power of these three to create natural, vegan and toxin-free products.

This Work Essentials conversation will highlight the immense importance of the natural world and talk about how these brands have been able to turn this into commercial success. A fantastic session for those interested in sustainability, entrepreneurship and a more mindful lifestyle.

Dr. Aneesh Sheth is skincare expert trained in pharmacy and formulation. After returning from the U.S, post finishing his Ph.D. in pharmacology from NYU, he realised the gap in research and products designed exclusively for Indian skin. This legacy of research on brown skin runs in the family for generations. Starting from the experience, research, and insights of his mother- Dr. Rekha Sheth, an internationally renowned cosmetic dermatologist and  a trailblazer in this field. Dr. Aneesh's understanding of major skin differentiators and environmental damage factors, backed by extensive research and study led to the genesis of Dr.Sheth’s; a skincare brand designed especially for Indian skin and Indian skin tones.
