BIG Business Blueprint™
AMA Sessions for Startups, Investors, and Industry Leaders.
Every great business begins the same way. With someone asking “What if?” – that spark turns into a plan, a pitch, and eventually a product or a service that could transform people’s lives and profitable businesses, while protecting the planet.
But between those moments is where most startup founders and business executives need guidance. A place to ask questions, get honest feedback, and sharpen their ideas.
Welcome to the BIG Business Blueprint (BBB). A free series of live ‘Ask Me Anything’ sessions led by me, a seasoned business coach and startups advisor who has helped countless founders refine their vision and bring their ideas to life.
Each AMA session focuses on a theme that matters; pitching, scaling, go-to-market strategy, and everything in between. Startup founders, small business owners, and operators from any size and any sector can learn and grow. Investors and executives drop in to listen, stay close to transformative ideas, and see what’s emerging to drive the next phase of your funding and mentorship journeys.
Join me over a LinkedIn LIVE brainstorming session where I turn questions into strategies that endure.
I am Bhuva Shakti. And I want you to succeed in shaping what is next.
For three decades, I’ve built a career around helping people and organizations grow. I started on Wall Street, advising clients through moments of both challenge and opportunity. Over time, that experience led me into the boardroom, where I’ve worked to guide strategy, build stronger teams, and shape lasting impact.
I’ve helped small, medium, and large businesses raise funds, develop products, improve operations, and coach startup leaders and corporate executives to exceed their potential.
What connects it all is a simple focus: bringing clarity, action, and purpose to ambitious ideas.

I’m a big believer in mutual growth. When we share openly and with genuine curiosity, we create space for honest questions and clear answers. Twice a month, you can bring your challenges directly to me, whether they are about pitching, building a team, refining your strategy, or navigation growth. I will tackle them one by one so everyone listening can learn something valuable.
Founders join to get clarity. Investors and executives tune in to stay close to their ideas, mindsets, and movements that are shaping what’s next.
How are those sessions structured? — What can you expect?
For me, the BIG Business Blueprint is an opportunity to leverage my experience and skills acquired with my 3 decade career to coach the talents of tomorrow.
Here is how the sessions are structured. There are two types of sessions:
The Startup Growth Playbook – each session features a topic catered to startup founders and industry leaders, you ask any questions you may have over this topic, I will answer them for everyone to learn and grow.
Who Should Attend?
- Aspiring & Established Startup Leaders
- Venture Investors & Business Owners
- Corporate Executives Exploring Startups
The LIVE Startup / Investor Pitch Session (coming in 2026) – these sessions are for every startup founder seeking either to pitch their business or every investor wanting to share their challenges.
Those sessions are not a pitch competition, rather a LinkedIn LIVE brainstorming session for you to train your skills and request second opinion and advice.
You’ll have free access to the sessions after they ai on LinkedIn for a limited period of time.

FAQ about the BIG Business Blueprint
What is the BIG Business Blueprint?
The BIG Business Blueprint is a free, twice-monthly Ask Me Anything session where startup founders can bring their questions directly to me, a seasoned business consultant, and get practical, actionable advice. Investors, executives, startups, academic leaders, and non-profit experts can join to gain insight into emerging ideas and trends shaping tomorrow’s market.
How much does the BIG Business Blueprint cost?
It’s free! I provide free-of-charge coaching advice and answers to all your business / investment related questions during those sessions.
I missed one of the sessions! Where can I find the replay?
Full live recordings are kept on my LinkedIn for a few days. After that, the full version can be watched indefinitely on the Planet Positive Hub for any member.
How big are the groups per session?
Considering those are ‘Ask Me Anything’ sessions, the number can vary. What’s important for you to know is that I’ll always be available to answer your questions during those sessions.
What stage of development should my startup be in to join?
There’s no requirement regarding how far you are in your startup development for you to join my session. Rather than your startup stage and where you are on your entrepreneur’s journey, I value the opportunity to connect, exchange, and support!
Is there a networking session after each of the BIG Business Blueprint sessions?
While there are no networking sessions after the BIG Business Blueprint sessions, I encourage you to join the Planet Positive Hub. There, you can connect with me, my network, and a community of over 2,000 professionals including industry advisors, founders, investors, executives, academics, and nonprofit leaders.
Can I book individual coaching sessions with you?
Absolutely! I would love to help you personally grow your business, whatever stage of development you are at. For a fee, I offer personal coaching services to any startup founder, investor, board, or executive ready to reshape the future of responsible, sustainable, and inclusive business.
