NEW YORK and BANGALORE, India, Oct. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Newmark Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: NMRK) ("Newmark" or "the Company"), a leading commercial real estate advisor and service provider to large institutional investors, global corporations, and other owners and occupiers, announces it has expanded its Property and Facilities Management businesses into India, hiring Sathish Rajendren, FRICS, SLCR, MCR, as Executive Managing Director to head the operations across India and APAC. Based in Bangalore, Rajendren will be responsible for ensuring consistent, best-in-class Property and Facilities Management solutions for owners and occupiers in the region.
"Newmark continues to evolve to meet clients' needs across every region and stage of the asset lifecycle," said Luis Alvarado, Chief Operating Officer. "Our growth in India exemplifies our continued delivery of holistic, end-to-end solutions that create long-term value for investors and occupiers alike, while advancing our strategy to grow recurring Management Services and Servicing revenue globally."
Richard Holden, President of Property and Facilities Management, added, "This marks a very meaningful step in the continued expansion of Newmark's Property and Facilities Management business. India's scale, growth trajectory and sophistication make it an essential market in our global strategy, and we are committed to being a frontrunner in these markets. Sathish's extensive experience and vision across global and APAC markets reinforces our mission to deliver best-in-class management services."
A seasoned leader with over 22 years of experience, Rajendren brings an impressive track record of transforming organizations and driving growth across diverse sectors, including occupiers, developers, investors and government entities. In his prior role at Knight Frank, where he served as Senior Executive Director, he was instrumental in scaling operations tenfold and elevating the firm's market position, overseeing a portfolio exceeding 350 million square feet across India. Earlier in his career, he managed an additional 140 million square feet while leading property services at Cushman & Wakefield.
A distinguished alumnus of the Institut Européen d'Administration des Affaires (INSEAD) and the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore, Rajendren is recognized as a thought leader in property and facilities management. He was recently inducted into the 2025 CoreNet Global Distinguished Leaders Circle, a prestigious honor that will be celebrated at the upcoming CoreNet Global Summit in Anaheim, California.
"India represents one of the fastest-growing commercial real estate markets in the world, fueled by urbanization, foreign investment and an expanding corporate occupier base," said Rajendren. "Newmark's global resources, advanced technology and client-first approach position us to redefine the management landscape in India. We see tremendous opportunity to deliver greater efficiency, sustainability and value for clients as the market continues to evolve."
According to government data and industry estimates, office absorption approached 60 million square feet through the first nine months of 2025, driven by technology, financial services and global capability centers1. The country's ongoing infrastructure build-out, coupled with increasing demand for institutional-grade management services, creates a strong foundation for Newmark's entry. Establishing a property management hub in India will also enable closer collaboration with multinational occupiers and investors active across APAC and globally.
Newmark has recently unified its Property Management and Facilities Management service lines to deliver enhanced end-to-end solutions for owners and occupiers globally. As part of its Management Services businesses, Property Management and Facilities Management form a core vertical within Newmark's global operations. These recurring businesses generated approximately USD 1.1 billion in total revenues, including USD 833 million from Management Services and USD 274 million from Servicing Fees and Other Revenues2 in 2024.

All On-site Profits Donated to Fund Tai Po Fire Recovery Efforts
HONG KONG, Jan. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Tam Jai International Co. Limited ("TJI") has concluded its debut as the official partner of Clockenflap 2025, uniting its three renowned rice noodle brands – TamJai Yunnan Mixian, TamJai SamGor Mixian and the international brand TamJai Mixian – for the first time. The collaboration brought the "Made in Hong Kong, Made to Move" spirit to the Central Harbourfront. In light of the recent tragedy in Tai Po, TJI remained guided by its genuine "Passion to Serve", pledging all on-site profits from the festival to the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals to fund recovery efforts and support for residents in need.
Throughout the weekend, the trio brands welcomed music fans on a culinary journey that embodied the brands' dedication to the city. The activation served as a global stage to showcase TamJai and SamGor's Hong Kong-born legacy while demonstrating how TamJai Mixian unifies the best of both brands for international expansion.
- "Made in Hong Kong" was highlighted to celebrate bold flavours, distinctive style and a lively dining vibe, all originated in Hong Kong and brought to life through Tam Jai's craftsmanship, signature soups and the iconic 10 spice levels honed over the years.
- "Made to Move" symbolised the relentless drive to innovate, expand into new markets and champion noodle culture on the global stage, sharing the unique "Tam Jai Taste" with the world.
Music fans immersed themselves in rhythm and delight to taste buds at the "TamJai Avenue", a dedicated zone decked in signature TamJai green and SamGor red to create a space that felt both nostalgic and fresh. Every corner was infused with the identities of the three brands, allowing visitors to explore installations that blended rice noodle heritage with Hong Kong culture.
Mr Daren Lau, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TJI, reflected on the event, "'Bringing the unique Tam Jai Taste to the world' has never been merely a statement, but a commitment and vision that we have built step by step throughout the years. From our deep origins in this vibrant city, we have cultivated three iconic brands – 'TamJai Yunnan Mixian', 'TamJai SamGor Mixian' and 'TamJai Mixian'. Their debut on a united front at Clockenflap symbolises an important step in our journey to present Hong Kong's spirit on a global stage, sharing our beloved 'Tam Jai Taste' with music enthusiasts across the globe."
"Music has the power to connect, heal and uplift, especially in challenging times. With deep love for the families affected by the tragic Tai Po fire, TJI donates all profits from Clockenflap 2025 to support the emergency needs and recovery efforts of the community. This reflects our 'Passion to Serve' brand DNA, bringing warmth, care and hope to the communities we proudly call home."
A Culinary Recap: The Taste of Hong Kong
Festival-goers gathered at "The Taste of Hong Kong" dining area to experience an East-meets-West menu created exclusively for the event.
While fans enjoyed reimagined classics like the Mini Mixian with Pork Belly in Mala Soup, the standout items of the weekend included the innovative "Minced Pork and Homemade Pickle" series. The Minced Pork and Homemade Pickles Mini Burger and the fusion-style Avocado in Garlic and Chilli Sauce were among the most popular choices, demonstrating how authentic mixian ingredients can be transformed into shareable festival snacks.
Local Craftsmanship: Spiced Mixology
The "Spiced Mixology" Bar, a partnership with local craft distiller Perfume Trees Gin, offered cocktails that captured the essence of Hong Kong. With unique and distinctive flavours, both drinks sold out quickly on each event day and became one of the most sought-after highlights of the music festival.
- Spicy Banger (Left): A crisp gin base sharpened by SamGor's signature spice, lychee and lemongrass, finished with a facing heaven chilli.
- Gin'ger (Right): A refreshing mix of TamJai's soup essence, whiskey and gin, balanced with warming ginger and a crisp cucumber garnish.
Interactive Highlights: Engaging with the Brand
Beyond the culinary offerings, "TamJai Avenue" provided immersive cultural experiences. The "Make Your Own Bowl" workshop saw hundreds of fans creating customised phone straps featuring ingredient-shaped charms. Meanwhile, the "Spicy Soup Master" activation invited participants to roll a giant dice, with those braving the "Extremely Spicy" level receiving exclusive memorabilia. The "Bring TamJai Home" collection, featuring "Tastebud Troopers" plush toys and "Spicy Monster Gang" figurines, also proved to be a popular memento of the festival.
