Manage episode 343791078 series 2471913
Amar Lalvani says, “You have to be bold at the right time.” Lalvani exemplifies his own advice with a career that has seen him working with some of the biggest names in hospitality. After studying business, Lalvani cut his teeth at Starwood Capital Group and Blackstone before landing at the Standard. Working alongside the brand's founder, André Balazs, Lalvani helmed its worldwide expansion—creating playful properties paired with creative F&B concepts as seen at the newly opened the Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon, which was designed by the in-house team and Spanish artist and designer Jaime Hayon. Now, as the executive chairman of Standard International and its sister company, Bunkhouse Group, the proven tastemaker has a slew of audacious new projects lined up, including the forthcoming Hotel Genevieve in Louisville, Kentucky.
