📊 Adebayo Ogunlesi, the man who bought Gatwick Airport and built a $2B+ fortune. Adebayo Ogunlesi grew up in Nigeria, studied at Oxford and Harvard, and started his career in law before moving into investment banking. He later co-founded Global Infrastructure Partners, a firm focused on buying and scaling undervalued infrastructure assets worldwide. That strategy led to major deals including London City Airport, Edinburgh Airport, and the £1.5B takeover of Gatwick Airport. In 2024, Adebyao’s firm GIP was acquired by BlackRock for $12.5B. #entrepreneur #business
