Anant Yardi will not be caught up in any private jet mischief like Adam Neumann. The low-key California software tycoon is set to take over WeWork on Thursday (Friday AEST) when a federal bankruptcy court hands control of the co-working business the hustling Neumann once ran to its creditors.
Yardi, an engineer who immigrated from India in 1968, has quietly amassed a multibillion-dollar fortune over four decades selling property management software to commercial and residential landlords.
