Sarah Kauss is a consumer products leader with a track record in launching companies, building multi-million dollar successful brands, and assembling high-performance senior leadership teams. She is a successful global entrepreneur, product design expert and has deep experience in partnering with multinational corporations to become more sustainable and meet environmental goals.

As the Founder of S’well, Kauss bootstrapped the company with $30,000 of her savings to reach over $100 million in revenue. During this time, she created a new category and well-loved brand, helping to make sustainability more mainstream. An early advocate of the importance of ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) in business, Kauss integrated values and impact within S’well from the start, securing B Corp Certification in 2020 and displacing more than 4 billion single-use plastic bottles over the company's history.

Prior to S’well, Kauss was an international real estate developer with a publicly-traded real estate equity investment trust where she spent six years with increasing responsibility leading large international collaborations and partnerships. Kauss started her career in public accounting with EY (formerly Ernst & Young), as a Certified Public Accountant, working in both tax consulting and the auditing function. She provided professional services to public and privately-held companies in the technology, consumer products and media sectors.

Kauss is an advisor and investor who regularly shares her insights with professional organizations and the press, including Inc., Fortune, Forbes, Bloomberg, NPR and more. She has been recognized as a Fortune’s “40 Under 40” honoree, EY Entrepreneurial Winning Woman and awarded the Harvard Business School Club of New York's Entrepreneurship Award.
