Another winner of the Padma Shri award for his contributions to India is Ravi Pillai. The son of a farmer, he migrated from Kerala to Saudi Arabia after his construction business was forced to stop operations. The company he founded in 1978, RP Group, has now become a diversified conglomerate with 20 companies, that has executed projects worth over $25bn. Expansion is also on the cards – late last year, Pillai revealed the group’s plans to invest up to $1.46bn in the hospitality business globally to grow its brand Raviz.
