On 17 February, everything revolved around sustainable building concepts, smart technologies and the new EU building directives at the F.A.Z. conference ‘Future-proof commercial real estate’ at the Hamburger Sparkasse in the Deutschlandhaus.
Our managing partner Reinhold von Eben-Worlée provided valuable insights into energy-efficient refurbishment, the use of renewable energies and smart technologies. Together with Robert Kitel (alstria office REIT-AG), Anke Koch (ibak Hamburg GmbH) and Sami Steinbach (Angermann Real Estate Advisory AG), we discussed what really makes commercial property future-proof.
- Life cycle assessments are becoming increasingly important
- Smart energy management systems increase efficiency
- New EU regulations - challenge & opportunity for sustainable growth
Particularly exciting: the role of financial institutions as key players in the transformation. They must specifically promote sustainable investments in order to future-proof the industry.
We would like to thank all participants for this exchange as well as Hamburger Sparkasse as initiator and @F.A.Z. Konferenzen as organiser!
