The founding partners of Hotelivate are renowned hospitality business consultants with over 80 years of combined professional consulting experience.

HOTELIVATE, a new-age hospitality consulting firm offering end-to-end business solutions, announced its formal launch in the Asia Pacific region today. Hotelivate presently has offices in Delhi and Mumbai, with Singapore and Bangkok opening soon.

This announcement comes on the heels of HVS restructuring its business in India earlier this year, whereby it moved its non-core services to a separate entity, Hotelivate, even as Consulting, Executive Search and Asset Management continued to operate under the HVS license. Now, with the launch of the expansive role of Hotelivate, the entire erstwhile team of HVS India will cease to exist under the HVS trademark, and will operate under the new brand identity of Hotelivate.

The founding partners of Hotelivate are renowned hospitality business consultants with over 80 years of combined professional consulting experience. They have advised, assisted and nurtured thousands of clients for more than two decades in South Asia, and are excited to continue serving a diverse range of industry stakeholders, going forward. They are:

·       Manav Thadani, Founder Chairman

·       Megha Tuli, Partner & Co-Founder

·       Natwar Nagar, Managing Partner, Executive Search

·       Achin Khanna, Managing Partner, Strategic Advisory

·   Saurabh Gupta, Managing Partner, Investment Advisory & Asset Management

 Speaking on the occasion, Manav Thadani, Founder Chairman of Hotelivate said, “As HVS, we were able to bring in systems and processes never seen before in the region, and that helped us establish a niche for ourselves as consultants. It’s with great pleasure that we announce the expansive role of Hotelivate, adding more services to our portfolio as we begin a new journey in consulting. A change in name does not change our commitment to excellence and passion for all things hospitality.”

Specifically, Hotelivate will assist clients right from inception to divestment of their hospitality ventures, by offering an entire spectrum of services that are focused, practical and tangible value-adds for clients. Core services include Strategic Advisory (Feasibility Studies, Valuations, Management Contract Negotiation), Executive Searc, Professional Skills Development, Investment Advisory, Asset Management, Revenue Management, Project Execution Planning and Advisory, Debt Advisory.

 In addition, some of Asia Pacific’s most successful conferences, previously hosted by HVS, will now continue under the Hotelivate banner, namely Hotel Investment Conference – South Asia (HICSA), Hotel Operations Summit India (HOSI), Tourism Hotel Investment & Networking Conference (THINC) Indonesia & Sri Lanka, and the inaugural THINC Innovate, Bangkok.

Megha Tuli, Partner & Co-Founder of Hotelivate added, “We are enthusiastic about the road ahead. With a team of consultants having over 250 years of collective experience, Hotelivate is well-entrenched to service client needs through empathetic and tailor-made solutions that are focused on adding value to their projects.”
