He is an accomplished entrepreneur with an established track record in building, scaling, and managing businesses within the real estate, construction, and alternative asset sectors.

Imran commenced his career in London’s competitive property industry, where he progressed from consultant to division manager within two years at a leading multinational real estate investment group. He subsequently founded and operated several successful real estate and investment companies, establishing a reputation as a respected and influential figure with reach across Europe and the Middle East.

In parallel with his real estate ventures, Imran founded a construction company that secured significant refurbishment and development contracts for major international clients, including Apple, Adidas, national airports, and medical institutions.
