Our Founder
Farrukh Naveed, MBA, PChem
Farrukh Naveed is the founding Principal of Iveedo. As a senior executive who has worked for various international consulting firms, especially in the energy and mining sectors, Farrukh has learned first-hand what it takes to lead teams to success. He was inspired to start Iveedo because he wanted to bring diversity, inclusion and respect for traditional knowledge to the forefront of project delivery, especially in historically conservative industries.
Farrukh is passionate about solving industry challenges, even when faced with competing priorities and resources. As an advocate for health, safety and sustainability, Farrukh wholeheartedly believes that all projects, including those in industries such as energy and mining can be delivered in a sustainable way, minimizing or eliminating harm to people, cultures and the environment.
Farrukh received his Master of Business Administration from the Richard Ivey School of Business at the University of Western Ontario, his Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from the University of Calgary and is a registered professional chemist in the province of British Columbia. In his spare time, Farrukh enjoys all activities rooted in nature, including skiing our majestic mountains and surfing our vast oceans.
