Kash Lais
Chief Executive Officer & Director

Kash heads up our operations, paying particular attention to sourcing the best site and project opportunities Cambridge has to offer. He also secures and maintains close relationships with banks and the right mix of specialist investors.

All this stems from his years of experience securing cross-border investment and developing a keen eye for the potential value hidden in land and property. Kash’s track record of successful real estate projects totals well in excess of £100 million.
