Dev Patel
VP, Hospitality Development
Dev Patel brings more than a decade of U.S. hospitality experience spanning hotel development, acquisitions, operations, asset stabilization, repositioning, and long-term asset management. His experience covers the full hotel lifecycle, from evaluating opportunities and developing new properties to operating and repositioning assets for long-term performance.
Dev is the Founder and CEO of Ralsons Hospitality, a vertically integrated hospitality platform established in 2022 with capabilities across hotel investment, development, operations, stabilization, repositioning, and asset management. Through Ralsons, Dev has developed a hands-on, ownership-driven approach to hospitality, working across both existing hotel assets and ground-up development opportunities.
At New England Sports Village, Dev leads the hospitality development strategy, helping shape NESV's vision for hotels and the broader hospitality component of the Village. His responsibilities include evaluating hotel development opportunities, working with development and operating partners, coordinating the transition from development to operations, and helping position the hospitality assets as an integral part of NESV's broader sports, wellness, dining, and entertainment destination.
As NESV expands its hospitality offering, Dev brings the experience needed to connect hotel development, operations, and asset strategy with the larger master plan—supporting the creation of a cohesive destination that serves athletes, families, visitors, tournaments, and the surrounding community.
With Ralsons Hospitality expanding into the New England market, Dev also brings a growing regional hospitality perspective and a long-term commitment to developing and operating hospitality assets that complement the communities and destinations they serve.
