We know ground-up is smoke and mirrors even on a good day, but this is NEXT LEVEL. We then slip into linen trousers and head to the embattled sun-kissed shores of hospitality giant Aman , where the involvement of a mysterious international fugitive has caused all sorts of drama between Aman and key partners Cain International and PIF . And finally, a quick wardrobe change into earnings-call appropriate attire, as CBRE absolutely crushes the AI boom .
