Tan Sri Dato’ A K Nathan Elumalay, the founder of Eversendai, built the company from a modest structural steel erection company in Malaysia to one of the world’s most sought after integrated structural steel turnkey contractors. His sheer determination, keen enthusiasm and acute attention to fine details have served as the driving power behind the development of the Eversendai Group.

Under his leadership, the company grew from strength to strength and spread its business from Malaysia to ASEAN, South Asia, the Middle East and North Africa. Some of the prominent structures built by Eversendai over the course of more than three decades of operations include the Petronas Twin Towers (Tower 2), Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Burj Al Arab, Burj Khalifa, Doha International Airport and Capital Gate Tower. He was also instrumental in establishing Eversendai’s steel fabrication facilities in Rawang, Thailand, Dubai, Sharjah, Doha, Ras Al-Khaimah and Trichy. Eversendai produces a combined annual capacity of over 204,000 tonnes. Today, Eversendai has a workforce of over 15,000 in 9 countries and operates out of 15 offices.

His charismatic approach to business and the construction industry has earned him many accolades. Some notable ones are the Malaysian Entrepreneur of the Year 2008 from Ernst & Young, the CEO of the Year Award in 2008 by CIDB and the Lifetime Achievement Award for Leadership in Construction Industry by the World Chinese Economic Forum in 2015.

Tan Sri is also a prolific speaker and is often invited to deliver speeches at various seminars, forums, universities and conferences.
