ESG in the real estate industry

Successfully shaping sustainable engagement in real estate

This training is held in German.
Sustainability is not a new topic for companies. What is new, however, is that sustainable criteria are now being demanded by important stakeholders. Both regulatory and social pressure are increasingly demanding commitment and transparency from companies regarding their contribution to sustainable development. In addition, legislative requirements have become increasingly stringent in recent years. Responsible companies are therefore called upon to adapt their management strategy with regard to sustainable real estate management. The future-oriented management of buildings is becoming particularly important in light of the current pressure for change in the real estate sector, with drivers such as ESG, digitalization, property tax reform, etc. The training serves to convey a uniform picture of the processes in real estate management, to identify hidden potential for cost and quality optimization and at the same time to create an understanding of approaches for implementing more sustainability in the real estate life cycle.
