Anshoo Sethi
A leader in the environmentally sustainable development industry, Anshoo Sethi directs his family business, UPGROWTH, toward a brighter future by promoting the use of green building practices and management in hotel and resort development. As part of its many business activities, UPGROWTH acquires and develops properties for hotels and resorts. Because of his longstanding commitment to environmental sustainability, Mr. Sethi ensures that all projects funded by UPGROWTH maximize the full potential of the latest green technologies.
Recognizing that green improvements must not negatively affect the clientele of his company’s resorts and hotels, Anshoo Sethi promotes what he refers to as a “seamless transition to green behind-the-scenes.” According to Mr. Sethi, a hotel’s successful incorporation of environmentally sustainable practices involves the education of the guests about green initiatives and an effort to make improvements as transparent as possible for guests. Anshoo Sethi understands that because the hospitality industry serves such a large part of the global community, any innovations in green technology that can be leveraged as part of hotel operations have the potential to make an unprecedented impact on the overall health and future of the environment.
In addition to green hotel acquisition and development, Anshoo Sethi and UPGROWTH provide a wide variety of other consulting services, including strategies on asset management, equity investment, and real estate analytics.
A longtime resident of Chicago, Illinois, Anshoo Sethi graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago, where he majored in finance and marketing with a focus on international business.
