Revolutionizing the Boating Industry: The 36-Year-Old Scientist's Game-Changing Foiling Boat

Sampriti Bhattacharyya, founder and CEO of Navier, a boatbuilding company, defied expectations and launched her successful venture after overcoming numerous challenges. Starting with a passion for space and robotics, she pursued internships and education in the United States, eventually founding Hydroswarm, a company that produced underwater drones. When that venture didn't pan out, she pivoted to Navier, which focuses on creating electric foiling yachts with advanced technology and an operating system that ensures a smooth ride. With $10 million in seed funding and a team of industry experts, Navier aims to revolutionize water-borne transport and alleviate congestion on roads. Bhattacharyya's ultimate goal is to introduce electric water taxis and barges in coastal cities worldwide.
