With this episode, we aim to dive into the nuances that explain the complexities of the business. And who better to explain it than Irfan Razack from Prestige Group, Nirupa Shankar from Brigade Group, and Karan Virwani from WeWork & Embassy. We deep dive into family businesses, passion versus wealth, new-age real estate, and much more. For those who know me, I’m not the biggest fan of real estate (as an asset class), but I may also not know enough. This episode will give you insight into what really happens in the world’s biggest asset class. #NikhilKamath Co-founder of Zerodha, True Beacon and Gruhas Twitter: https://x.com/nikhilkamathcio/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nikhilkamathcio/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nikhilkamathcio?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=ios_app Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nikhilkamathcio/ #IrfanRazack Chairman & MD of Prestige Group Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/irfanfalcon/?hl=en LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/irfan-razack-844a78114/? #NirupaShankar Executive Director at Brigade Group Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nirupa.shankar/?hl=en LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nirupa-shankar-1309371/? #KaranVirwani CEO of WeWork India Twitter: https://x.com/karan_virwani10 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/karanvirwani/?hl=en LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karanvirwani/?
