Chairman and Founder of ANAX Holding, Satish Sanpal is driving growth across real estate, hospitality, and investment. With a bold vision and resilience, he’s shaping Dubai’s next chapter of entrepreneurial excellence.
Leading one of Dubai’s most dynamic and fastest-growing enterprises, Indian-born Satish Sanpal, Chairman and Founder of ANAX Holding, has established himself as a prominent force in the region’s business landscape.
From his early beginnings to building a diversified group in real estate, hospitality and investment, Sanpal’s journey reflects determination, innovation, and purpose. He drives ANAX Holding’s global growth through multiple verticals and a focus on strategic expansion.
With a career spanning continents, he is known for his foresight, agility, and ability to navigate complex markets with precision.
“Every experience I went through was either a learning curve or a step forward,” he reflects, adding that “agility is the cornerstone of progress; the ability to anticipate, adapt, and act before others do.”
Luxury real estate
A defining milestone for ANAX was the launch of ELLE Residences in September 2025, the company’s first branded luxury residential project in Dubai and ELLE’s debut in the Middle East.
Situated on Dubai Islands, the development offers direct beachfront access and unites ELLE’s global lifestyle identity with ANAX’s deep insight into the city’s evolving luxury real estate market.
“ELLE Residences is a project that reflects both cultural sophistication and architectural ambition,” says Sanpal.
With investor confidence on the rise and Dubai’s Real Estate Strategy 2033 positioning the city as a global leader in innovation and sustainability, Sanpal envisions the luxury sector entering a new era of growth.
“To stand out, you have to lead rather than follow,” he explains. “At ANAX, our focus is on delivering exceptional value through wellness-driven, design-led spaces that enhance the way people live and feel.”
Global expansion
Sanpal is guiding ANAX Holding into international markets with strategic diversification across real estate, hospitality, and investment, an approach that strengthens the group’s resilience and positions it for sustainable global growth.
“Dubai has taught us to dream big, but also to grow with purpose and discipline,” he says. With new projects on the horizon, his forward-looking vision continues to expand ANAX’s presence across key industries.
Focused on disciplined growth and long-term value creation, Sanpal aims to join the Top 50 billionaires globally by 2034.
Philanthropy, purpose, and legacy
Sanpal is a committed advocate of sustainable entrepreneurship, mentorship, and philanthropy. Through the Sanpal Foundation, he supports initiatives in food security, education, and community development.
“Success is not complete unless it makes a difference in the lives of others.”
His efforts earned him the Loomba Foundation Award, presented by Lady Cherie Blair, recognizing his dedication to social impact and empowerment.
Beyond business, he pursues his passions for yachting, rare books, luxury automobiles, and wellness activities, reflecting a well-balanced approach to life.
