AMIT EGAN DATWANI
Founder & Chief Consultant

I am the Founder and Chief Consultant of Global Consulting Organization. Our internationally positioned Project-Starting Firm is Visioning, Branding, and Marketing the Neighborhoods, Communities, and Cities of the Future—with particular expertise in Office Building TRANSFORMATION to SUPERCHARGE today’s unsustainable Central Business Districts into Profitable and Purposeful Places of the Future.

We at GCO are leading the movement for Real Estate’s first TRULY-INTEGRATED Project Development Model: DESIGN|BRAND|BUILD. I showcase this innovation and keen mindset for Transformational Development as the evocative host of GCO FutureCast Episodes and the dynamic presenter of GCO Events. With these credits, I am an influential speaker and C-Suite Advisor, offering evolutionary perspectives on the Future of Office Buildings. This includes the vital power of Branding & Marketing in Commercial Real Estate, as well as how the concept of "Central Living Districts" will RE-imagine the Industry for 2030 and Beyond.

As the leader of the GCO Collective, I ACTIVATE Best-in-Class creative talent from inside and outside the Real Estate Industry to LAUNCH Development Projects with a Unified Creative Vision. Using this VISION as a Project’s lead facilitator, I am the driving force behind the movement to ELEVATE “The Human Experience” through the Built Environment, an essential commitment of the DESIGN|BRAND|BUILD Model.

With two decades of experience working in & with Family Businesses in Real Estate (and previously the apparel industry), I also advise Multi-Generational and Family Office Clients about how to integrate divers perspectives into a Cohesive, purposeful VISION that delivers superior outcomes.

I am trilingual, proficient in English, Spanish, and Hindi. I'm an active member of the CREW Network and mentor students at George Washington University's Center for Real Estate & Urban Analysis and the Dwight-Englewood School. I enjoy spending time with my wife (a Writer and longtime Yoga Teacher), 27-year-old stepson (a New Jersey State Trooper and Personal Trainer), and 14-year-old son (who dreams of playing in the NBA). We love playing pickleball, boating, and exploring all that South Florida has to offer.

For inspiration, I love reading, practicing yoga, and taking long walks around cities, always thinking about TURNING IDEAS INTO REALITY.
