Maslow Ventures is a Kerala based venture ecosystem designed to build meaningful businesses across essential sectors from food and education to branding and agriculture.

Founded by Zakariyya Zubair, Maslow Ventures is more than a business group, it’s a framework inspired by Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, where each brand fulfills a distinct human necessity.

Mission

To launch and grow businesses that solve real world problems across food, education, branding, consulting, and agriculture, each aligned with a level of Maslow’s hierarchy, while developing well trained value driven teams capable of scaling impact across regions.

Vision

To build a purpose driven ecosystem of brands that fulfill essential human needs from survival to self actualization by combining creativity, technology, and ethical entrepreneurship.

Our Philosophy: The Maslow Model in Business

Abraham Maslow’s psychological theory explains that humans grow through five levels of needs from survival to self actualization. At Maslow Ventures, we apply this model to entrepreneurship.
