‘Amortise embodied carbon’ among innovative ideas presented at the second MIPIM Challengers for under 30s in real estate
.jpg)
21 March 2025. MIPIM Challengers, 16 young built environment professionals aged 30 and under, presented innovative solutions to the industry's biggest challenges at MIPIM 2025 in Cannes.
After a full programme of events, talks, panels, and networking at MIPIM 2025, and following a coaching session hosted by UNESCO Ambassador Guila Clara Kessous, 16 visionaries from across Europe pitched their ideas to an expert panel of senior real estate leaders.
First introduced at MIPIM 2024, the annual MIPIM Challengers initiative invites visionary built environment professionals aged 30 and under to bring fresh ideas and new perspectives to the industry.
For the 2025 MIPIM Challengers, audience participation was encouraged for the first time, with a packed hall voting for Embodied carbon as an “asset” to be amortised as the most popular presentation.
Embodied carbon as an “asset” to be amortised
Tom Sells, Audit Senior at EY, proposed that embodied carbon should be treated as an "asset" to be amortised, instead of focusing on replacing old buildings with new ones. Sells argued that integrating embodied carbon into financial models could increase building value and longevity.
Challengers who joined Tom Sells in this presentation are:
- Kate Tinker, EMEA Graduate Surveyor at Colliers International
- Ioana Orzea, Investment Associate at Mitiska REIM
- Betsy Brady, Chartered Surveyor at Knight Frank LLP
- Rebecca Rayner, Graduate Planner at Savills
- Leonie Müller-Judex, PhD Candidate at IREBS University of Regensburg
Panel discussant Ioana Orzea highlighted the current effort within the investment management community to measure emissions, and the need for a regulatory body to help provide incentives to better integrate embodied carbon into the cost consideration. Betsy Brady pointed to London's prime rents driving investor appetite for new construction despite sustainability concerns. Tinker proposed a longer-term vision for building lifespans and more flexible designs that account for cultural evolution.
Helena Olin, Head of Real Assets- AP2, and Veronica Gallo Alvarez, Head of Investment Management – Redevco, were the judges for this panel.
Other presentations were as below:
Sponge cities against flooding
The first group’s idea, Sponge cities against flooding, was presented by Justine Noulin, Project Manager at PCA-STREAM, who used examples of recent flooding in Spain and France, to emphasise the importance of implementing solutions to avoid flooding in the built environment, ultimately creating sponge cities. She was joined by other Challengers:
- Charlotte Leach, Graduate Planner at Avison Young,
- Kali Dennett, Property and construction PR consultant at Cartwright Communications,
- Sofia Wilson, Business Development Manager at Mace Construction
- Maximilian Schmidt, Senior Consultant, Industrial & Logistics Agency at Jones Lang LaSalle SE
The group argued about sponge cities in front of the jury: Hala El Akl, VP, Sustainable Investing & Operations, Oxford Properties and Adina David, Founder of Poem Capital & Ladies in Real Estate. Challengers highlighted how traditional asphalt and concrete fail to absorb water, advocating for urban designs that mimic natural absorption. Charlotte Leach called for policy requirements and government-funded initiatives to encourage behavioural change, while Kali Dennett emphasised community engagement through custodian groups, which will aid the regular maintenance of sponge infrastructure to work effectively.
Sofia Wilson showcased Landsec's innovative building that reduces flash-flooding risk, potentially lowering insurance costs and de-risking the property. Maximillian Schmidt underscored the inevitable impact of increasing floods on property values, with the group recommending practical solutions like rainwater gardens, rain walls, and green roofs as essential steps toward advancing Sustainable Urban Drainage (SUD) systems into comprehensive sponge city designs.
Brick by byte: where construction sites meet cyber sites
In the presentation "Brick by Byte: Where Construction Sites Meet Cyber Sites," Bijou D'Arcy Louise Dunn, Associate at Shoosmiths LLP, advocated for the widespread adoption of material passports, citing British Land's successful implementation at Broadgate. Dunn addressed key challenges, including international standardisation, and suggested blockchain and AI as potential solutions.
Other members of this group of Challengers include:
- Rebecca Peek, Assistant Relationship Manager at Mizrahi Tefahot Bank Ltd
- Gafar Fashola, Project Manager at Trigon DM
- Camille Zell, Real Estate Lawyer (Associate) at Jeantet
- Cléos Paris, Consultant - Tenant Representation at Colliers France
Challengers tackled concerns about energy efficiency, skills gaps and bureaucracy, noting that new regeneration projects increasingly consider the sector's public image. When questioned by jury member Muyiwa Oki, RIBA President, about ROI, panel member Rebecca Peek highlighted that material passports aren't just environmentally responsible but financially sound, enhancing property values while delivering long-term benefits through more efficient supply chains and circular economy principles.
Adina David, Founder - Poem Capital & Ladies in Real Estate, and Challengers Patron, said:
“The Challengers programme is incredible, and all the 16 finalists are really inspirational. I learned a lot from them, discussing topics I don't often think about. It is a great mini-conference within a conference that would help all real estate professionals, as we might not be exposed to these innovative ideas in our day-to-day jobs."
Challengers were selected by a jury panel based on a 600-word English essay submission. Finalists participate in a comprehensive programme of events, talks, panels, and networking at MIPIM, including a dedicated conference session where they pitch their best ideas to an expert panel of senior real estate leaders.
MIPIM 2026 will take place on 9-13 March 2026 in Cannes, France.
The next MIPIM Challengers competition will open in September 2025.
London, 20 February 2025 – MIPIM, the global urban festival, is set to welcome the mayors of major European capitals alongside international investors and sovereign wealth funds managing over a combined €4 trillion in assets under management (AUM). With this unprecedented concentration of capital, MIPIM provides an unparalleled opportunity to connect investors, developers, and policymakers in one place.
As real estate undergoes its most significant transformation yet, driven by shifting demographics, geopolitical changes, sustainability demands, and technological advancements, MIPIM will bring together global leaders to exchange ideas, forge partnerships, and drive solutions.
With Europe’s economic competitiveness under pressure, these issues will take centre stage at MIPIM 2025, including during the opening keynote on 11 March, where industry leaders will explore the future of sustainable investment, infrastructure development, and policy innovation.
Key attendees
The confirmed attendance of capital city mayors of London, Rome, Madrid and Athens underscores the critical need for collaboration between public and private sectors to shape the future of sustainable cities.
Senior political leaders at MIPIM will be joined by the world’s largest real estate investors and sovereign wealth funds, including AXA IM Alts, ADIA, CBRE Global Investors, DWS, GIC, Korea Investment Corporation, LaSalle Investment Management, Investment Corporation of Dubai (ICD), PIMCO Prime Real Estate, QIA, REST (Retail Employees Superannuation Fund), Swiss Life, Teacher Retirement System of
European delegations will be joined by representatives from Japan, Canada, the USA, Mexico, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, India, Türkiye, Oman, the UAE and Qatar, amongst others. New delegations attending MIPIM for the first time in 2025 include Bahrain, Uzbekistan and South Korea.
Expanded 2025 programme
To help real estate players capitalise on the booming sector, MIPIM provides comprehensive workshops on residential, logistics, offices, healthcare, data centres and life sciences. In 2025, the programme is further expanded to tackle real estate’s biggest challenges, from AI and talent to decarbonisation and shifting urban needs.
This year, MIPIM will launch HTL Connection, a revamped platform for professionals in real estate, hospitality, tourism and leisure. Leading hotel groups representing over three million rooms have already confirmed their participation in 2025, including Accor, B&B Hotels, BWH Best Western, Brazilian Minister of Tourism, Clubmed, ECE, EasyHotel, Hilton, Hotel IOI, Hyatt, Limehome, Mirum Group, Patriarche, Radisson, RHG Radisson, Rebel Investment, TUI and others.
Building on last year’s successful launch, MIPIM will host Housing Matters!, an international half-day summit (1pm - 8pm) focused on addressing practical housing solutions. The summit will bring together key stakeholders from the public, private, and civil society sectors, encouraging cross-sector collaboration to tackle the critical housing challenges of today.
The second edition will explore the mismatch between housing supply and demand, addressing issues such as population growth, reduced housing availability, ageing demographics, migration, student housing shortages, and oversupply, with examples such as Finland. The new, more interactive format includes sessions with speeches from key players in the housing sector, an immersive workshop exploring the key aspects of the new housing deal, and networking opportunities, concluding with a cocktail.
Discussions on housing will take place throughout the week at MIPIM, featuring Housing Ministers from Denmark and the UK, alongside Anacláudia Rossbach, Executive Director of UN-Habitat.
AI at MIPIM: A deep dive into the future
Artificial intelligence is reshaping real estate, and MIPIM 2025 will deliver an in-depth programme to help industry leaders navigate this shift. Across two days, attendees can explore AI’s role in digital real estate, investment strategies, and operational efficiency:
- Wednesday, 12 March: A series of open-to-all conference sessions, including keynotes and panels, offering a strategic overview of AI’s impact on real estate.
- Thursday, 13 March: Columbia AI Day, a closed-door event hosted by Columbia University, offering an in-depth exploration of AI implementation. Registration is available via email.
In response to high demand from British clients, MIPIM has launched a new UK Hub: a three-day conference and events programme complemented by an exhibition area showcasing investment opportunities across the UK.
In collaboration with the World Green Building Council (WGBC), the Urban Land Institute (ULI), the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), and the Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC), MIPIM has created a comprehensive series of discussions at the Road to Zero stage. These discussions will focus on cities' decarbonisation roadmaps, innovative business models that facilitate the decarbonisation of existing real estate stock while driving investor returns, and effective strategies to mitigate climate risks impacting asset resilience and valuation in real estate.
On Tuesday, 11th March, MIPIM will conduct The battle for talent session focused on attracting and retaining talent. This session highlights how leaders can tackle this challenge by fostering inclusive cultures that engage top talent, driving meaningful change across the industry.
Nicolas Kozubek, MIPIM Director, said:
“At MIPIM 2025, we are bringing together the world’s largest investors and key political leaders to drive meaningful change. We are driving a deep transformation in real estate — tackling sustainability, infrastructure, and the integration of new technologies. Initiatives like the Columbia University AI programme reflect our commitment to equipping real estate leaders with the insights they need to navigate new markets, embrace innovation, and drive sustainable investment. MIPIM remains the ultimate platform where the industry’s most influential voices come together to transform ideas into action.”
Real estate is evolving faster than ever, and MIPIM has become more than just a marketplace — it’s now a global forum for learning, innovation, and collaboration. We want to engage leadership and talent specialists into the conversation, ensuring the industry attracts and retains the best minds for the future. This shift towards knowledge-sharing is evident in the growing interest from academia and tech companies.
Each year MIPIM attracts over 20,000 delegates from over 90 countries comprising key decision-makers in the real estate sector, national governments and city leaders.
MIPIM 2025 will take place on 10-14 March 2025 in Cannes, France.

The industrial real-estate market, as well as logistics, office and hotel development projects will be in focus at the Hungary-Budapest stand at MIPIM, one of the world’s premier real-estate development exhibitions. The aim of the Hungary-Budapest stand is to promote investment in the capital and cities around the country, to showcase the investment environment in Hungary, and to provide information about development targets and opportunities. It was jointly designed by the Hungarian Investment Promotion Agency (HIPA) and the Real Estate Developers' Roundtable Association (IFK), with Liget Budapest Project and the National Industrial Park Management and Development Company (NIPÜF) as featured exhibitors. Its professional sponsor will be CBRE, the world’s leading real-estate consultancy firm. The most important property developers on the market, including ATENOR, GLP, GTC, HelloParks (member of Futureal Group), InfoGroup, Inpark and WING, will be present at the top-of-the-line international event to showcase their latest ongoing environmentally conscious and sustainable projects. Two of Hungary’s university cities, Debrecen and Szeged, will also be featured. CBRE will share its latest analyses at the roundtable discussions at the Hungary-Budapest stand, while Diófa Fund Management Ltd. will present the macroeconomic and investment environment in Hungary, along with investment opportunities offered by real-estate funds. György Habsburg, Hungary’s Ambassador to Paris, will be the guest of honour at the Hungary-Budapest stand.
Opportunities in Hungary are demonstrated by
the fact that 300,000 m² of office space was delivered last year, and demand
has kept up with supply. The logistics market is expanding at a pace unseen for
years, with supply growth of around 400,000 m² in Budapest in 2022, and demand
exceeding 500,000 m². The total area of industrial properties grew to
4.5 million m² nationwide, with over 3 million m² in
Budapest and the area surrounding it. And there are plans to add nearly
1 million m², of which nearly 500,000 m² is already under
construction, according to CBRE data. The President of IFK highlighted that
Hungary will mainly showcase industrial properties at the Hungary-Budapest
stand, which have plenty of potential, as the Hungarian industrial real-estate
market is the one that sells best abroad. He mentioned that energy efficiency
and minimising carbon emissions are also a priority when industrial parks are
being expanded. He said that high-quality industrial properties now get 20-30%
of their energy from solar power, which is a huge step towards a greener world.
In the hotel segment, development projects are focused on increasing the
attractiveness of both Budapest and destinations outside the capital. According
to Ernő Takács, the future lies in business hotels in smaller cities and towns
as well as quality tourism-related developments in Budapest, citing the recent
elements of the Liget Budapest Project as an example.
Benedek Gyorgyevics, CEO of Városliget Zrt, the company behind the Liget
Budapest Project, said, “We are proud to return to the exhibition, as last year the House of Music, Hungary was the first Hungarian development to win the Jury Grand
Prize in the three-decade history of the MIPIM Awards, the most
prestigious international real-estate award.”
The popularity of the new elements of Europe’s largest cultural
investment project has exceeded all expectations, with almost 5 million
visitors enjoying the modern, renovated facilities, brand new buildings and the
rejuvenated parts of the park in the last two years. The CEO explained that
Liget Budapest’s schedule is set to continue towards full implementation with
the construction of the House of Innovation, Hungary, Városliget Theatre and
the New National Gallery, designed by the Pritzker Prize winning Japanese
architectural firm SANAA.
Hungarian Investment
Promotion Agency (HIPA) CEO István Joó reported that a record EUR 6.5 billion of investment came into Hungary
last year, and that an even stronger year is expected in 2023. Up to 92 large foreign
direct investment (FDI) deals were closed, creating some 15,000 new jobs and retaining
tens of thousands more, he said. FDI was also balanced in terms of geographical
origin, with 48% of capital investment coming from the East and 42% from the
West, while investments by Hungarian companies accounted for 10% of the volume.
Among individual countries, South Korea invested almost EUR 2.8 billion in
Hungary last year, with one in four new jobs and one in ten projects being
linked to South Korea. German companies accounted not only for 30% of investment
volume, but also for the largest number of projects (25), and paved the way to
hire six thousand new employees through their investments. The latter
represented 40% of all new jobs created in 2022. Well-capitalised Hungarian
firms created 11% of new jobs, and their share of the project pipeline is even
more significant, amounting to 20%. In terms of sectors, electronics attracted
43% of total investment volume, and the majority of that was implemented in the
e-mobility domain. Together, the automotive and food industries accounted for
37% of all projects and 44% of new jobs, ” István Joó highlighted.
Béla
Köves, National Industrial Park Management and Development Company (NIPÜF) CEO spoke
about the robust demand for industrial parks. He stressed that NIPÜF entered
the industrial property development market in 2016 as a state-owned company,
and became known under the INPARK brand. The industrial property development
group is present in 17 cities in Hungary, covering close to 900 hectares,
and controls the largest development-targeted plot portfolio on the Hungarian
market. 2022 was the Group’s most dynamic year, with the delivery of nearly
80,000 m² of halls on five sites, including for Airbus Helicopters and
Honeywell. Among the many industrial properties built in previous years, the
INPARK hall in Hatvan also houses the largest Robert Bosch regional
distribution centre. Through its complex development projects, the Group helps
both domestic and foreign companies find their place in Hungary, facilitates
the introduction of new technologies, and helps create jobs and stimulate the
economy. INPARK has now become a brand whose customers know they will receive
state-of-the-art technical solutions and sustainable, cost-effective services
in an investment-friendly environment, tailored to their needs – he said.

Chengdu Hyperlane Wins World Architecture Festival China Awards 2022 We are pleased to announce that Aedas-designed Chengdu Hyperlane has received Outstanding Design Awards at World Architecture Festival (WAF) China this year. Among many project submissions, Chengdu Hyperlane is awarded one of thirteen Outstanding Design Awards by its design excellence and this recognition highlights our dedication to creating world-class design solutions that are tailored to the needs of cities and communities in China.
In collaboration with ASPECT and BPI, Aedas designs the 2.4km long Hyperlane Park brimming with social, retail and creative space– the future of mixed-use development. Located on the Northern axis of Chengdu's urban centre, Hyperlane Park consists of 12 plots, spanned across the sky garden corridor, overlooking the city and project entrances. Designed as a 2.4 km continuous urban landscaped corridor, the sky walkway is a leisure space that cultivates a live-work dynamic.
‘Blending recreational parks and commercial space is not as simple as overlaying the two together. A natural integration of them both must be achieved to cultivate synergy. We want to use the park to attract foot traffic for businesses and allow people to experience a social element with their shopping experience. This results in an ideal integration of the city and its people with landscape and businesses while creating an urban oasis that is functional and open. The concept behind creating this landmark that realizes a new way of socializing is one that is fitting to Chengdu's constantly evolving and dynamic appeal.’ – Aedas Global Design Principal, Dr. Andy Wen.
Hyperlane's open spatial plan is ideal for diverse social gatherings, outdoor exhibitions, installations and a wealth of public attractions that create endless entertainment for the city. The main portion of the development is allocated to a variety of businesses and functions such as retail, residential and creative space. The creative space can be transformed to skate parks, interactive art installations or performance space that appeals to people of all ages to enrich the public green corridor.
Executive Director Dongwei Wang adds, ‘We believe that this accelerated shift from real-life to online social interactions has an immense impact on spatial design in commercial developments. Social spaces must be designed with the health and safety of the community first in mind, while also promoting an inviting environment. Social distancing measures need to be implemented in a way that meets commercial demands, and proper public and private space need to be integrated to allow people to feel more relaxed in their environment.’
Through organising the annual events integrating awards judging, design forums, exhibitions, networking events, and various kinds of activities and events, WAF China is dedicated to establishing a professional and diversified platform to strengthen the connections between China and the global design industry, aiming to create more opportunities for talented designers around the world to share their design ideas. |
On 11 July 2022, real estate developer Immobel announced the acquisition of the Commodore project* (11,000 m²) in Evere (Brussels, Belgium). The project, with final permit, consists in the redevelopment of a former office site into 115 quality apartments surrounded by green.
The Commodore project is part of the Master Plan of the Brussels Region to redevelop a former office area into a pleasant residential neighbourhood with a pedestrian zone and cycle tracks in green surroundings.
Through this transaction, Immobel will be able to develop three residential buildings with 115 apartments for about 300 residents. The buildings provide a mix of studios and 1, 2 and 3, 4-bedroom flats with terraces, all with a beautiful and well-thought design, built to Immobel's high-quality standards. In addition to the 124 car parking, 229 bicycle parking will be foreseen to encourage soft mobility.
The ground floors of the buildings are designed to accommodate commercial space and public facilities (such as a doctor's practice or a daycare centre), which create a direct link with the city. Residents will have access to numerous amenities at walking distance.
Residents will benefit from a park with an orchard and a shared urban vegetable garden to promote biodiversity on-site. The buildings will be equipped with a rainwater recovery system, solar panels and green roofs.
The start of the commercialisation of the apartments is foreseen in Q1 2023.
“The Brussels Capital Region has a structural shortage of quality affordable housing. With Commodore, we are responding to this demand and continue to expand our residential offer in Brussels. We are happy to contribute to the redevelopment of a former peripheral office area into a modern, pleasant and sustainable residential neighbourhood.” says Adel Yahia, Managing Director of Immobel Belgium.
The Commodore Project has been conceived by a partnership between STRATEL S.A. (Ph.le Hodey) and AUXILIAIRE DE GERANCE S.A. (N. Peterbroeck) and designed by architect DDS+LAUNCH NEW REAL ESTATE FUTUREPROOF PAVILION AT MIPIM

Coen van Oostrom – Owner EDGE and EDGE Next: “In the last two years ESG, Smart & Healthy Building have become exponentially more important. Now office workers are demanding hybrid work and are more aware of wellness issues. Combined with the fact that Real Estate is the largest contributor to CO2. It is now essential to have a work place that is safe for people and the planet while managing your assets in this new hybrid world. We can do a better job by using data driven insights to make improvements. The world needs better buildings.”
Jonathan Mills – Osborne Clarke: I’m looking forward to the Real Estate Futureproof Pavilion at MIPIM and getting to spend time face to face with the excellent community that Wouter and his team are bringing together. It will give us a great opportunity to discuss the global issues that are transforming our clients' businesses such as digitalisation, decarbonisation and urban dynamics.
Martin Nestepny – HB Reavis: “The most significant evolution in the Commercial Real Estate industry over the last few years is undoubtedly made by the adoption of new technologies. The PropTech companies bring the vast majority of them. Adoption of technology in combination with well-thought buildings brings value to all building users. Being part of the Real Estate Futureproof Pavilion at MIPIM 2022 is the right place to be these days. “
"We are honored to be a part of the Real Estate Futureproof Pavilion at MIPIM," said Steve Van Till, Founder and CEO of Brivo.

Aedas-designed The Beacon scores double win in Europe
 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Aedas-designed The Beacon in Hong Kong was crowned the Best Tall Building Project at LEAF Awards 2018 and highly commended for Best Sustainable Project at Blueprint Awards 2018 in Europe.
Executive Director Cary Lau drew inspirations from the city’s post-war structures to design The Beacon, setting an excellent example of contemporary interpretation of traditional architecture. In the early post-war years, it was common to create illegal iron balconies for residential units in Mongkok, a hyper-dense neighbourhood in Hong Kong, to maximise view and area. The building design reinterprets these structures in a modern way – the irregular protrusions create unobstructed views for each unit. Also inspired by the home gardens which people created on those iron balconies, a green wall on the podium façade is designed to further connect the building with the historical cityscape and offer more greenery at the pedestrian level.

Vilnius unveils Europe’s boldest smart city project at Expo Real Munich
Munich, 10th October 2018, The City of Vilnius has unveiled its comprehensive smart city project at Expo Real in Munich, Germany, Europe’s largest B2B trade fair for real estate and investment. The Lithuanian capital was invited to present at the fair as this year’s city guest.
"Vilnius is the capital of open data. Although the topic is often discussed across the continent, no other European city has implemented such a radical open data policy. Three years ago, we turned our idea of having Europe’s boldest open data policy into a reality. Today, it is a non-negotiable standard. We see it as a prerequisite for developing innovative solutions for private businesses,”says Vilnius Mayor Remigijus Šimašius.
Representatives from Vilnius also participated in various panel discussions of the fair’s Intelligent Urbanization Forum, which explores the challenges and possibilities that the real estate industry and cities face with the rapid trend towards urbanisation. With one of every three people expected to live in big cities by 2050, it is particularly important for them to become smarter at collecting and reacting to data, making full use of technology in order to improve living conditions and mobility for its residents.
Eglė Radvilė, Chief Advisor for Strategy and Digital Initiatives, was in charge of presenting Vilnius’ progress to date and future vision as a smart city, in which a progressive policy of open source data plays a central role. According to Radvilė, the vision of the city is to create efficiencies that will save time and make life more comfortable for residents and guests, at the same time facilitating the ability of businesses to settle and operate in the city. This vision goes hand in hand with the World Economic Forum’s Digital Transformation Initiative, launched in 2015 to offer insight into unlocking the benefits of digitalisation in business and the wider society.
Vilnius has a radical open data policy that gives anyone access to critical data in real time. This has facilitated a clearer view of traffic and transportation options, promoting car sharing and public transport and decreasing the likelihood of traffic jams. At the same time, the city has given citizens the medium to give relevant feedback about city issues. With the mobile app Tvarkau Miesta, residents can report overflowing bins or objects blocking public roads, among other things.
“The citizens of Vilnius are bold, ambitious and want rapid changes. Vilnius is not only open with its data, but also open to feedback and new ideas that can lead to problem-solving for city issues. The city has opened a three-way conversation between governance, business and the citizens, but feedback from visitors is also considered greatly important. City guests are becoming increasingly aware of the modern, digitised solutions and open approach to governance. A lot of them make use of the available tools during their visits, for instance to pay for parking with their phones," said Inga Romanovskienė, Director of Vilnius’ Tourism and Business Development Agency.

Aedas-designed Lè Architecture in Taipei, Taiwan, received the most public votes for Commercial-Office - High Rise (16+ Floors) and won Architizer A+ Popular Choice Awards 2018. This year the highly publicised campaign received over 400,000 public votes from more than 100 countries and territories.
Designed by Global Design Principal Dr Andy Wen, Lè Architecture in the Nangang district of Taipei is set to redefine Taipei’s rapidly developing skyline. Its design drew inspiration from the shape of the river pebbles along the Keelung River, developing a unique aesthetic concept that conveys the idea of roundness and elegance, as well as strength and character. The building's egg-like shape implies it is an incubator of knowledge and a metaphor of intellectual revival, which integrates well with the local context and marks an important milestone in the revitalisation of the fast-emerging Nangang district. The 60-metre tall office building employs multiple strategies to add greenery to the façade and is focused on minimising energy demands which enabled it to achieve a LEED Gold certification.

The Architizer A+ Awards promote and celebrate the year’s best architecture and products, with a mission to nurture the appreciation of meaningful architecture in the world and champion its potential for a positive impact on everyday life.

Paris, 9 November, 2017 - Reed MIDEM, organiser of MIPIM, MIPIM UK, MIPIM Asia Summit and the MIPIM PropTech NYC Summit, today announces the launch of the MIPIM PropTech Europe in June 2018. The new, two-day event will be held in Paris on June 19-20, 2018. Reed MIDEM launched the first MIPIM PropTech NYC Summit in 2016, in partnership with MetaProp NYC – the world’s premier real estate technology nexus. In October 2017, the second edition of the New York Summit welcomed 820 delegates representing 550 firms from 33 countries and was the flagship event of the NYC Real Estate Tech Week. Delegates were drawn from the Tech sector (50%), real estate (40%) and VCs/Investors (10%). MIPIM PropTech Europe will expand the New York concept to include a significant exhibition zone for Tech companies and startups to showcase their latest projects and ideas. MIPIM PropTech Europe will cover real estate’s complete value chain and asset classes including residential, offices, retail, hotel and leisure and industrial property. Tech sectors that will be represented include property analytics and data, investment and crowdfunding, smart cities, building technology, workflow solutions, BIM, 3D/Virtual Reality and blockchain. “New Tech companies are rapidly proving the importance of their ideas within the global real estate industry,” says Filippo Rean, Head of Real Estate Markets, Reed MIDEM. “The growing interest of the real estate industry for the Tech sector that we have been addressing these past years at MIPIM in Cannes, coupled with the success of the first two editions of the PropTech Summit in New York, has encouraged us to bring a dedicated event in Europe.” In 2015, MIPIM in Cannes chose ‘The Digital Revolution’ as its central theme, prompting many real estate companies to comment that this was the first time they had come face-to-face with leading Tech companies and startups within an event. Since then, MIPIM has been host of Tech innovators that have developed solutions devoted to smart cities, to smart offices, to the use of Big Data, the Internet of Things and Virtual Reality. “The real estate industry may have been slow to adopt new technology into its strategic thinking but that is changing fast and the real estate tech industry is maturing quickly. In Paris next year, MIPIM PropTech Europe delegates from a real estate background will discover some of the most innovative Tech solutions coming to market. At the same time, Tech startups and companies will access the legacy property sector to accelerate their development,” comments Filippo Rean, Head of Real Estate Markets, Reed MIDEM.

China World Trade Center Phase 3C by Andrew Bromberg at Aedas makes a double win at MIPIM Awards and The Architectural Review MIPIM Future Project Awards
 China World Trade Center Phase 3C in Beijing, China, designed by Andrew Bromberg at Aedas, made a double win at MIPIM, the world’s leading property market, this year in France – the project was crowned Best Futura Project at MIPIM Awards 2017 and awarded a Commendation in the Retail and Leisure category at The Architectural Review MIPIM Future Project Awards.
Anchoring the new central business district in the capital city is the China World Trade Center development which has grown organically over the past 30 years. Phase 3C is the fifth and final phase for the entire development, and it is set to become a catalyst as a cultural centre to bring people together from within and beyond China World Trade Center by introducing a ‘Civic Green’ to the entire master plan and serving as a front door to the complex. It will also allow a continuous loop which ties the current and future subway lines together to enable and encourage connections over and under Third Ring Road.
The challenge and the motivation of the scheme is to allow the Civic Green, front door and retail loop to complement each other. The Civic Green is designed to be a sloped plan lifted above the ground, dipping down to the main entrance and allowing immediate access and visibility from all levels of the development. The front door, on the other hand, is carved to immediately descend down to the retail loop, extending the basement as part of the ground plane. A large exhibition center becomes the ‘attractor’ at the basement level to invite visitors down to the retail loop, while an Olympic-sized ice-skating rink under the Civic Green is another attractor from above. The programmes are thoughtfully planned to be more civic focused. In additional to traditional retail and food and beverage elements, there will be art studios, large exhibition spaces, an organic farm, cultural and educational facilities to enrich the site.
MUSEUM OF TOMORROW NOMINATED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL MIPIM AWARD AS MOST INNOVATIVE GREEN BUILDING
The building's unique characteristics include the use of solar energy and the recycling of water from Guanabara Bay in the cooling system
The winners will be announced on March 16
Designed by the Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, the museum optimizes natural resources in the region
The Museum of Tomorrow is the first Brazilian museum to be shortlisted for the International MIPIM Awards in the category "Most Innovative Green Building”. A landmark of the revitalization of Rio de Janeiro's Port Region, the museum boasts a number of green features, including special technology to capture solar energy and the use of cold water pumped from the depths of Guanabara Bay to operate the air conditioning system. The winners of the awards’ 2017 edition will be announced at a ceremony on March 16 in Cannes, France.
Created in 1991, the MIPIM Awards is an international competition that selects the most remarkable projects already built or under construction worldwide. The award ceremony takes place during the MIPIM trade fair, the largest event for the real estate market in the world. During the MIPIM trade fair, participants can vote in the Awards Gallery for their favorite project in each category. The participants’ vote represents 50% of the total score, and will be added to the jury’s vote. The award ceremony will be held at the Palais des Festivals (which also hosts the Cannes Film Festival).
The MIPIM Awards 2017 has shortlisted projects from 22 countries in 11 categories, with four finalists per category. The Museum of Tomorrow is competing in the category "Most Innovative Green Building” with the Siemens headquarters in Munich; the residential building 119 Ebury Street, in London; and the Värtan Bioenergy CHP-plant in Stockholm.
“The mission of the Museum of Tomorrow is to engage visitors in building a tomorrow based on the ethics of coexistence and sustainability. Therefore, we adopted sustainability measures from the very start of its construction,” explains Hugo Barreto, secretary general of the Roberto Marinho Foundation, the organization responsible for developing the Museum of Tomorrow.
In 2016, the sustainable guidelines of the Museum of Tomorrow were also recognized with the Gold Seal LEED certification (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), awarded by the Green Building Council - the main American institution for certifying green buildings. This was the first museum in Brazil to achieve the second highest level of classification – there are four: certified, silver, gold and platinum.
To obtain the LEED certification, the project and its construction were monitored by the Casa do Futuro (House of the Future), a consulting firm specialized in sustainability and new technologies in buildings.
Water savings of 9.6 million liters per year
The Museum of Tomorrow features sustainable architecture that interacts with its content. Designed by the Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, the museum optimizes the natural resources in the region. Some of the building’s unique green characteristics include special technology to capture solar energy and the recycling of cold water from Guanabara Bay for the air conditioning system. Every year the museum saves an estimated 9.6 million liters of water and 2,400 megawatts/hour (MWh) of electricity, enough to power more than 1,200 homes.
Water from the bay is captured by the museum and used for two purposes: to fill the reflective pools and feed the cooling system, which uses a heat exchange system. After the water is filtered and used to cool the Museum, it is returned to the ocean. The water used in the sinks, toilets, showers and rain water is also treated and reused, including the water generated by the dehumidification of air (the 'drip' from the air conditioning) - which can yield up to 4,000 liters of water per day.
Part of the energy used in the building is generated by solar power: large steel structures (the “wings”) installed on the mobile roof serve as a basis for the solar panels. Throughout the day, the wings move to follow the position of the sun. The museum design also maximizes the entry of natural light. The landscaping project designed by the Burle Marx landscaping firm includes native species that require little water and showcase the typical vegetation of the city's coastal area - the gardens measure over 5,500 square meters.
Waste management during construction
Since the start of the museum’s construction, various measures have been adopted to promote environmental sustainability. Procedures include the reduction and proper recycling of waste – for example, leftovers of the foundation piles were also used in building the sheds used during construction. This saved tons of steel. The selection of construction materials also followed environmental standards, prioritizing materials with recycled components, low toxicity, high durability and produced close to the site, in addition to the use of FSC certified wood.
The construction of the Museum is part of a series of projects of the Municipality of Rio de Janeiro City, carried out by the Consortium Porto Novo, through the largest public-private partnership (PPP) in Brazil.
The Museum of Tomorrow is an initiative of the City of Rio de Janeiro, created and developed in conjunction with the Roberto Marinho Foundation, an institution associated with the Grupo Globo, Master Sponsor Banco Santander and sponsor Shell. Other sponsors include Engie, IBM and IRB Brasil Resseguros and the Grupo Globo is a strategic partner. The museum is also supported by the State Government, through the State Secretary for the Environment, and the Federal Government, through the Finep program and the Federal Law of Cultural Incentive. The institution is part of a network of museums of the Municipal Department of Culture. The Instituto de Desenvolvimento de Gestão is the organization responsible for managing the Museum.
Hungarian
Megaproject: the European Nominee for the MIPIM Grand Prize
The Hungarian capital will be
among the most expected exhibitors of MIPIM 2017, the European property
industry’s main international exhibition and fair. A co-exhibitor of the
Hungarian stand, the Liget Budapest project has already earned the
international recognition of the global real estate community, since it made it
to the ‘MIPIM Awards 2017 Finalists’. The world-class preparation of Liget
Budapest is hallmarked by the fact that Japanese star architect Sou Fujimoto
will represent the Hungarian development at the event. Alongside the most
significant project, over twenty property industry participants will be
represented. Among the exhibitors an unusual and truly spectacular party is
‘FINA Budapest 2017’, the organizer of the Water World Championship taking
place in the Hungarian capital this August. During MIPIM, the design concept of
high-volume sports facilities and other developments related to the World
Championship will be presented, together with already completed phases. The
Municipality of Budapest, the Hungarian Investment Promotion Agency (HIPA), IFK
(the Hungarian Property Developers’ Roundtable Association), and the most
significant consultants, analysts and legal representatives of the industry
will also participate. During the 4 days of the event (14-17 March), over 100
conference programs and lectures will take place, with the participation of
more than 50 cities and more than 2,600 exhibitors.
Europe’s ‘Best
Futura Mega Project’: Liget Budapest
The Liget Budapest project is a unique development plan of the nearly
200-year-old Városliget, located in the heart of Budapest. Its objective is for
Városliget – the cultural leisure park of Budapest – to become a green,
liveable, modern part of the city, and at the same time to be an attractive
touristic spot. This exceptional development is now among the finalists of the
MIPIM Awards in the ‘Best
Futura Mega Project’ category along with Japanese, a Brazilian and a Russian
fellow competitor awaiting the jury’s decision in March. The current
‘shortlist’ status is already a remarkable recognition, with the project being
the only nominee from the EU recognized among the top four. 214 nominations
from 46 different counties were received in various categories for the renowned
MIPIM Awards prize that is the industry’s equivalent of the Oscars.
The project, once completed, will be a world-class, complex, family
friendly cultural and leisure facility comprised of both restored and new
museums, a theatre built for children and youth, an expanded 150-year-old ZOO,
and a city park that is greener and more attractive than now, providing
numerous new recreational opportunities. The development is realized with the
participation of star architect studios such as SANAA and Sou Fujimoto Architects.
„It is a remarkable success that
the Liget Budapest project is among the world’s four best projects in its
category.” – said
László Baán, the Ministerial Commissioner who is officially in charge of the
investment. He believes that the development, besides its complexity built on
the foundations of the nearly 200-year-old traditions of using the area,
grabbed the attention of the international jury with its individuality, the
quality of the plans, its sustainable features and the financial return of the
investment. This year is a milestone in the history of the project. After six
years of preparatory work, the construction works will start this year, as well
as the rehabilitation of the green areas. According to plans, in 3 years Budapest
residents will have world-class institutions in a greener and more attractive
city park that had been renewed in all aspects.
Sou Fujimoto Japanese star
architect in Budapest
Sou Fujimoto’s name does not need
to be introduced. He is the world-famous Japanese designer that the Wall Street
Journal named ‘the world’s most creative architect in 2014’. The highly
recognized expert will be at MIPIM with the Liget Budapest Project. He will
hold industry presentations and lectures, and participate in panel discussions.
In June 2015 the star architect signed an agreement to design the House of
Hungarian Music, which is also being realized as part of the project, thus his
name became one of the trademarks of the entire development. Sou Fujimoto – who
is only in his early forties – has been the winner of several architectural and
arts installation competitions from Japan through London and Miami. Among Sou
Fujimoto’s most renowned works is the “Eiffel-tower of Asia” in Taiwan. He is
famous and recognized for his light, airy, nature-inspired and inspirational
buildings worldwide.
Breathtaking sports facilities and
event venues of the Water World Championship
Among exhibitors from Budapest, a
real curiosity, ‘FINA Budapest 2017’ (the organizer of the Water World Championship
taking place this August) will be introduced. During the event, they will give
an insight into the concept of the developments to be completed by the World
Championship in August, and also introduce plans already implemented. The
central venue of the sports competition (Duna Aréna) was already completed in
February 2017. It can host 12,000 participants. Besides the central venue, a series
of event and competition venues with breathtaking features will be completed
within the next few months. An enormous diving tower – facing the Hungarian
Parliament building – is being built on a section of the river Danube. The ice
rink of Városliget will transform into the competition venue of synchronized
swimming for FINA 2017. In addition to new developments, construction works are
also carried out to modernize and develop already existing sports facilities,
including the complete rehabilitation of Margaret Island (Margitsziget).
Besides venues in Budapest, other parts of the country will also host competitions,
such as Balatonfüred where the open-water swimming competition will take place.
Visitors of MIPIM will get first-hand information about all the above listed
developments.
The most important property
industry players of Hungary will exhibit together
The Municipality of Budapest will
be represented at the stand, as well as the Hungarian Investment Promotion
Agency (HIPA). HIPA is a national investment promotion organisation governed by
the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade of Hungary. The Agency is specialized
in investment promotion activities that have a defining role in the program of
the Hungarian stand this year. Representing 12 property market participants at
the event, HIPA will introduce developments of outstanding quality both from
Budapest and the countryside. ”Beyond promoting the Hungarian investment
environment, our aim is to call the attention of the most significant industrial sectors to
the dynamically expanding Hungarian property market, as well as to the
promising property development investments that have serious realization
potential.” – said István Papp, Vice-President for Business Development at
HIPA, reflecting on the event. IFK – the Hungarian Property Developers’
Roundtable Association representing 19 leading property development companies –
will also co-exhibit at the stand. Atenor, Futureal, Gránit-Pólus, Horizon
Development, Immochan, InfoGroup, Inpark - NIPÜF (National Industrial Park
Operating and Development ), Hungarian National Trading House, Wing and
SymbioLight will showcase their projects at the stand. Further partners and
participants of the event are the International Law Firm Bird & Bird, CBRE,
as well as Lohn.
Introducing the Original Co-Working Space
The City of London Corporation will launch a campaign at MIPIM tomorrow to improve, strengthen and update perceptions of the City. The campaign will show that the Square Mile is one of the world’s most exciting places to work and base a business.
The campaign will be supported by a prospectus presenting the Square Mile, themed: The City of London – the Original Co-Working Space. This plays on the City’s history of ‘coffee houses’ dating back to the 1600s, which gave rise to today’s Lloyd’s Market, alongside the growing sectoral diversity in the district and the current trend of shared workspaces.
The prospectus will be available at MIPIM from 9am on Tuesday 14th March on the City of London Stand, within the London Stand (C 15). Alongside the prospectus delegates are invited to pick up the accompanying Tech X The City report which examines the fast-expanding City tech sector and how to further accelerate it.
The prospectus showcases the true diversity of the City and its unique mix of the ultra contemporary and authentic history. For example, the Square Mile has the highest concentration of Platinum-rated WiredScore buildings and some 1.25 million sq m of new grade A office space under construction. Combined with 600 listed buildings and over 200 gardens, churchyards, parks and piazzas, the City is a truly unique business district.
Well-known personalities and brands based in the City are featured in the prospectus, including:
· Sharon Ament, Director, Museum of London
· Stella Ioannou, Co-Director, Sculpture in the City
· Eugen Miropolski, Managing Director Europe & Israel, WeWork
· Graham Stirk, Senior Partner, Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners
· Shirine Khoury-Haq, Chief Operating Officer, Lloyd’s of London
· Jason Grist, CEO, Booking.com
· Anne Richards, CEO, M&G Investments
The campaign’s key messages include:
· The City has a healthy ‘ecosystem’ of businesses, most of which are not the large corporates you might expect: 98.5 per cent of businesses in the City are small to medium sized businesses (SMEs).
· The City remains a large-scale ‘co-working’ environment, with 60%–70% of its SMEs trading with others in the Square Mile.
· The City of London Corporation is working constantly to further enhance the built environment with measures including:
- Improving the public realm – e.g. traffic restrictions at Bank Junction that will improve safety and enhance the space for pedestrians and cyclists
- Encouraging contemporary workspaces – e.g. supporting the Innovation Warehouse, accommodating co-working hubs such as WeWork and Bathtub2Boardroom.
- Granting planning permission for high-quality, innovative buildings – e.g. in 2016 the City Corporation granted planning for 309,000 sq m of grade A office space at 22 Bishopsgate, 1 Undershaft, 2-3 Finsbury Avenue and 60 London Wall*.
· The City is becoming increasingly diverse in terms of sectors and its new occupiers defy the stereotypical City image: e.g. Lego, Deliveroo, Bloomberg, Booking.com, Skyscanner and Salesforce, as well as tech start-ups.
· The City is one of the best connected global business destinations: The world’s largest centre for financial transactions, Europe’s largest insurance hub, extraordinary transport connectivity (five international airports less than an hour away), world-leading free and unlimited wifi network being installed this year.
· Culture is a huge and vital part of the City’s offer: The City of London Corporation invests £80m every year in heritage and cultural activities of all kinds. It is the fourth largest funder of the arts in the UK and supports the Barbican, the Museum of London and the Guildhall School of Music, among other cultural institutions.
· The City of London Corporation will enhance its cultural offer with its Cultural Hub plan to link the three major cultural assets via public realm development.
