From building video games as a school student to designing world-class aircrafts before
turning 20, Naman Pushp embodies Airbound’s obsession with hard engineering and impossible
problems. Raised in Malaysia and educated at Dhirubhai Ambani International School, Mumbai,
Naman discovered his passion early, tinkering with robotics in middle school and creating
his first prototypes from MDF and aluminum sheets.
At 15, he began working on his first aircraft, determined not to chase another app idea but
to build something tangible that pushed the limits of physics. While his peers were
preparing for college, Naman was fabricating his first aircraft prototype using scrap
materials and a $500 micro-grant from GradCapital. That small bet became the seed for
Airbound, a company built on the belief that India could lead in aerospace manufacturing by
engineering from first principles, not imitation. Today, Naman leads Airbound as a hands-on
engineer founder, deeply involved in design, manufacturing, and controls.
