Ranking 20: Rahail Aslam, CEO of Select Group
Rahail Aslam, the founder and CEO of Select Group, has been actively involved in a cross functional leadership role. For Rahail, the job is 24/7 which allows him to focus on property development, hospitality, e-commerce and health and fitness.
In Q1 of 2021 the group launched their first project in Business Bay, 15 Northside. This project is already over 50% completed and is on track to be delivered by the end of 2022. 15 Northside is a 349-unit affordable luxury development located directly on Dubai Canal, and having become synonymous with waterfront living in Dubai Marina, Select Group are now looking to expand their footprint within Business Bay and other waterfront areas across Dubai.
Rahail told CBNME: “In addition to 15 Northside, we will be launching approximately 1 million square foot of developments in Business Bay by the end of 2021, which will ultimately be part of a 6 million square foot master development. Excitingly, we have already secured a pipeline to enter the ultra-luxury development category – with exciting projects and locations soon to be announced. “
Looking forward, Rahail would like to see the group continue to develop and diversify their portfolio.
Rahail concluded: “We are focused on growing our international portfolio and in recent months have commenced construction on a high end, boutique residential project in Marylebone, London. We have recently acquired a digital healthcare business and are looking into expanding our interests within the health & fitness industry in the UK.”
