SANAD Capital Names Thinkwell as ‘Lead Consultant' for its AUD400 Million Project

Hot off the back of the announcement made last week by SANAD Capital Pty Ltd. (SANAD Capital) about its AUD400 million ‘active lifestyle’ development, the company has today named the Los Angeles based Thinkwell Group (Thinkwell) as the lead consultant on its Sunshine Coast project.

The yet to be named master ‘active lifestyle’ development on the Sunshine Coast will now set the world alight with Thinkwell’s input.

“Having visited the site and after a series of intensive meetings with SANAD Capital’s senior management, we are very proud to announce that we are a part of this once in a lifetime project and are very happy to add it to our list of world class destination projects,” said Joe Zenas, CEO of Thinkwell.

Thinkwell is a multi-award winning entertainment, experience design and production company, responsible for the creation of some of the world’s most renowned destinations. The company will master plan and design what is set to be the region’s first of its kind project.

“We have always said that this development would be special, but now, with Thinkwell as our partner, we cannot wait to show Australia, and indeed the world, what is about to come to the Sunshine State. Thinkwell is a global leader, a visionary and a trend setter and that’s exactly what this project deserves,” says Bradley P. Sutherland, CEO of SANAD Capital.

Bringing the best the world has ever seen, Thinkwell is the ultimate global partner to deliver on this project, having created the world’s biggest and most exciting concepts such as Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi, MGM Studio City in South Korea, Dubai’s Expo 2020 winning bid and the London 2012 Olympics.

“We believe that the ‘Steve Irwin Way’ project will be truly unique and will put the Sunshine Coast on the global destination tourist map,” Zenas adds.

As disclosed last week, the project will consist of a world’s first ‘Wave Reservoir’, a world class water park, extreme water sports facilities, a prestigious action sports training and development centre as well as a four star hotel, an exhibition and conference centre, cafes, restaurants, international and local retail outlets.

“SANAD Capital might be a new company Down Under, but we’ve come with a clear vision and execution plan that surpasses this one project. We have preliminary council approval and are already in control of land, which will be transformed, with Thinkwell’s creative experience and multitude of expertise, into something that has never been seen or done before in this country.”
