Supporting Excellence Beyond the Court: OLHS at the KPB Trust Women's Open

This February, Oriental Lotus Hospitality Solutions stepped onto a different kind of stage. We were proud to sponsor the KPB Trust Women's Open, a W100 event on the ITF World Tennis Tour 2026, hosted in Bengaluru under the All India Tennis Association and the Karnataka State Lawn Tennis Association (KSLTA).

Hospitality has always been our craft. But the values that define a great guest experience — discipline, consistency, and grace under pressure — are the same values that define a great athlete. Supporting women's tennis at this level felt less like a departure and more like a homecoming.

Why a hospitality company sponsors tennis

At OLHS, every product blends international design standards with a deep understanding of local hospitality needs. From boutique resorts to global hotel chains, we elevate experiences — both consciously and with finesse. That philosophy doesn't stop at the hotel door.

The KPB Trust Women's Open brought some of the world's most determined athletes to Bengaluru, our home city. Standing behind them — behind women competing at the highest level of their sport — is exactly the kind of excellence we want to be associated with. Our banner for the tournament said it plainly: supporting excellence beyond the court.

It is also, in a quiet way, a Make in India story. A Bengaluru-grown company, manufacturing 100% in India across 57,000 sq. ft of seamless facilities, backing an international tour event played on Indian soil.

The Players' Party

On Monday, 16th February 2026, we welcomed players, officials, and guests to the Players' Party at Kazé Bar & Kitchen on Lavelle Road — an evening of great food, music, and camaraderie celebrating women's tennis off the court.

Tournaments are measured in match points, but they're remembered in moments. Watching athletes from around the world unwind together in Bengaluru's warmth was hospitality in its purest form — no dispensers, no amenity kits, just the simple craft of making people feel looked after.

Part of a larger commitment

Sponsorship, for us, sits alongside everything else we believe about doing business responsibly: circular sustainability where no product becomes waste, a workforce more than a hundred strong, and a decade of serving over 1,500 hotels across the globe.

Supporting the KPB Trust Women's Open is part of the same instinct — invest in the communities and the people who embody excellence, and the rest follows. We look forward to seeing where this partnership with Indian tennis goes next.
