Alejandro Dabdoub was born in Mexico City in 1972, the middle child of five siblings. He has always enjoyed photography as an art, but his passion is for business, dealing with people, networking, and creating new ventures. He is an award winning Author. Alejandro finished business administration at the University of New Orleans, took the real estate development program at Harvard executive education, completed an AD2 program at the IPADE Business School in Mexico City, and studied infrastructure finance at the London Business School. He started learning about corporate management in his grandfather's business, which his father sold. Since then, Alejandro has become an entrepreneur who builds restaurants-one of which is listed in the top 10 best restaurants in Mexico City. Given that the restaurant just mentioned had great wine sales, he became a wine distributor and eventually opened several retail shops. On the artistic side, Alejandro has published two books of photography and was the producer of four different movies, one of which was invited to the Cannes Festival and won a prize at the Paris Film Festival. His main line of entrepreneurship has always been in the development and construction of retail buildings and apartments. Alejandro began this line of business in 2001, where he developed his first shopping strip in Houston Texas, and started investing in apartment buildings with one of the most prestigious groups in the country. Since then, he has become (on invitation) a partner of the group and has participated in building a fund for international investors so they can invest in real estate in the United States. Alejandro is also a partner in a real estate group in Mexico that develops high-end condominiums as well as mixed-use retail buildings. The group also developed a fund to integrate different construction companies in different states, allowing for the diversification of portfolios for its investors. On the fun side, Alejandro collaborated with one of his partners to bring the sport of drifting to Mexico. This happened in 2008 and was the first drifting competition in Mexico. Alejandro is also part of a foundation that purchases art and lends it to museums around the world, so people can enjoy the beauty life has to offer.
