In today’s world, business education has become an essential part of success. However, not all trainers can boast real entrepreneurial experience. Sultan Dalipov is a striking example of practice preceding theory. A successful entrepreneur and renowned mentor, he built five diverse businesses and achieved billionaire status in Kazakhstan.
What makes Sultan unique is that he doesn’t just teach business management and growth—he has personally walked that path and continues to run several projects simultaneously. His hands-on approach and entrepreneurial achievements have made him one of Kazakhstan’s most influential business coaches, inspiring entrepreneurs both locally and abroad.
From Car Washes to Real Estate in the USA
Sultan Dalipov’s business journey is a story of determination, versatility, and persistence. He began by launching five successful companies, each occupying its niche in the Kazakhstani market:
- Pegas: a car wash network with two branches.
- Barista: a coffee chain with seven locations nationwide.
- MANTELLO: a retail network of 12 clothing and accessory stores.
- CNKZ: a real estate management and sales company.
- DEL PIERO: a shoe brand with a unique product line.
These companies not only generate consistent revenue but also demonstrate Dalipov’s ability to manage diverse business models successfully. His experience has given him a deep understanding of business mechanisms, enabling him to become an effective mentor to others.
Path to Recognition: From Mentorship to International Success
Once his businesses gained momentum, Sultan decided to share his knowledge. He developed educational programs and training sessions that helped other entrepreneurs grow. One of his most popular programs, “Success Squared,” has been attended by over 7,000 participants. Dalipov has mentored prominent Kazakhstani companies, including:
- Evrika — a chain of electronics stores.
- Hani — a popular confectionery chain.
- Beksar — an IT startup specializing in business automation.
In 2024, his achievements were recognized with the prestigious “Best Business Coach and Mentor of the Year” award by People Awards. Additionally, his contribution to the development of small and medium-sized businesses in Kazakhstan was officially acknowledged when he received a letter of appreciation from President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev.
Business Breakfasts: Building a Community of Entrepreneurs
Sultan is actively involved in building a business community by organizing business breakfasts where entrepreneurs can exchange experiences and draw inspiration from one another. Over the past five years, he has hosted more than 50 such events, attracting over 400 seasoned businesspeople.
Notably, the last two breakfasts were held in the USA. During these meetings, Sultan not only shared his expertise but also announced his plans to launch a new venture in America—the construction of private homes in Florida.
Future Plans: Business in the USA and the Next Billion
Starting a business in the USA is a natural next step in Sultan’s journey. He believes that only an entrepreneur who continues to develop projects personally can be an effective consultant and mentor.
“To properly advise people on business, I must have a business of my own. The bigger it is, the more impactful my training and consulting will be. That’s why I decided to start a business in the USA and share my knowledge at the same time,” Sultan explains.
Dalipov sees great potential in the American market and aims to build a company that will one day achieve a billion-dollar valuation. His goal is not only to establish a successful business but also to continue helping other entrepreneurs achieve their dreams.
Conclusion
Sultan Dalipov is a shining example of a next-generation entrepreneur and mentor. He demonstrates that success is not merely a matter of luck or talent but the result of hard work, discipline, and a willingness to learn from experience.
Launching a business in the USA will mark a new chapter in his career and further validate his philosophy: a successful entrepreneur must constantly grow and evolve. No matter where he operates, Sultan Dalipov will remain an inspiring figure for anyone striving for success.
With his strategic mindset and clear vision, Sultan is confidently moving toward his goal—building a billion-dollar company and leaving his mark not only in Kazakhstan but also on the global business stage.
