Patel and his brother Mike Patel Atlanta: Born in Uganda, Mike moved to England with his family when he was eight years old, after the dictator Idi Amin deported anyone of Indian decent. Growing up, he was a soccer enthusiast and played professional soccer for the English Premier League for club teams, Crystal Palace and Southhampton. In 1981, Mike moved to the United States to play for the Atlanta Chiefs. When the league folded, he purchased his first hotel in the mid 80s. Mike is a graduate of the London Business School.
Patel is now a prominent hotelier and real estate developer who is also one of the founding members for AAHOA and involved in various social and charitable organizations.
Mike’s work with the community drew the interest of President Bill Clinton, who invited him on a trip to India as part of the White House’s Initiative on Asian
Americans and Pacific Islanders. He helped initiate historic changes for these groups in banking, social services, immigration, and relations with India. On his India trip, the two became friends, and Clinton later appointed Mike to the Clinton Global Initiative in which he helped fundraise earthquake relief in Gujarat as well as on projects associated with the Clinton Foundation’s Global Initiatives on AIDS, hunger, and climate change.
in 2007, Patel was recipient of the Award for International Cooperation between the United States and the United Kingdom awarded by British Prime Minister Tony Blair in London on Wednesday, June 20. Mr. Patel was commended for his commitment to improve relations among ethnic communities around the world.
