– Who we are –
Empowering & Enabling through experiential / outbound learning.
According to ancient Greeks, Ether which they also called quintessence, is the material that fills the region of the universe above the terrestrial sphere
Ether signifies a higher plane of awareness. Unfortunately, we sometimes forget our potential and fall into familiar patterns, behaviors and ways of working and ignore the infinite potential that exists within us.
At Ether Ventures, we use the experiential/outbound learning plane…As humans, as Corporate citizens and members of a community, we have the ability to help you attain a higher level of awareness and open your mind and heart to the possibilities of new ways of operating. Our programs not just energise the body and the mind but inevitably the soul. People go back feeling a heightened connectedness with the world around them.
It eventually makes for higher engagement and better alignment of one’s inner and outer being.
“There are more fake guides, teachers in the world than stars. The real guide is the one who makes you see your inner beauty, not the one who wants to be admired and followed.”

“Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.”

" Hi Sunny, Thank you for your wonderful intervention at our off-site. You not only helped the team explore teamwork and collaboration but also pushed each one of us to introspect and think a little deeply. Thank you again! "
- Radha Abrol (Controls & Compliance Lead,
Microsoft India)
“Sunny’s whimsical skills of battering together a wonderful leadership program, was a pure delight for the soul. We not only learned about leadership through Invictus, but most importantly we learned more about ourselves. Sunny has helped each of us individually open our eyes and look beyond what we see – dream bigger, reach higher, and believe in yourself. It was a truly refreshing experience and is only the beginning of a magical self-seeking journey. We are forever grateful to Sunny and his team for helping us find our paths in this journey.”

" We recently engaged Sunny Ahuja and his team from Ether Ventures to carry out 2 training events for The Family Office in Bangalore and Bahrain. The team exceeded our expectations in both the design and implementation of the events. They were extremely knowledgeable and flexible, able to completely customize the event to enable it to be held in Bahrain, where due to the weather, all activities needed to be done indoors. Throughout both of the two day events, they kept all of our staff fully engaged. The training method Ether ventures uses is experiential learning meaning that the focus is not specifically on the theory behind the activities. Sunny and his team are experts in the debriefing sessions and were able to reinforce the key learning points as well as facilitate honest and constructive feedback sessions within the group.
I would recommend Ether Ventures for training events both on a local and international level and TFO will certainly be engaging them in the future. "
- Abdulmohsin Al Omran (CEO, The Family Office, Bahrain )
“From the moment Sunny started the session, a sudden burst of energy gushed into the room. In my 2 years working in Japan, I have not seen the participants being so thrilled. Sunny’s program was embedded into the last day of a 3 day leadership training. We knew we had made a great decision, when the participants left the program on a higher energy level than when they came. Thank you sunny for the amazing experience.”
- Anushruthi Davalur (Mitsubishi Fuso, Japan)
"It was a pleasure and a great learning experience working with Sunny bhai at Ether Ventures. The boot camp helped us know more about each other and strengthened our bond as a team. It was a defining camp at Kabini just before we headed for our U-19 World Cup campaign. It taught us to believe in each other, use each other’s strengths at moments of crisis and think smart and effective when the time is limited.
Thank you Sunny bhai for all your teachings. Wishing you the very best for the future."
- Unmukt Chand (Indian Cricketer)
