Recognised as one of the Leading Real Estate & Construction Leaders in India 2025, Mr. Manish Dave shared his insights with Corporate TrendZ:

“In construction, operational excellence and digital transformation must operate as a single system. I view technology as a lever that strengthens day-to-day execution rather than disrupts it.
