PLEASE SAY WHY YOUR TEAM SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FOR THE AWARD
What sets us apart is not what we do, but how we do it. Our people are passionate, take personal responsibility and always do what’s right for our Clients (maximizing the value of properties, cooperation with start-ups, opening new service lines and offices), people (2x Best Employer Title) and communities (numerous charity actions). We attract and develop industry leaders, empowering them to think and act differently to drive exceptional results (e.g. we advised in the first transaction on the student housing market in Poland representing Kajima and Griffin and in the largest lease transaction in the history of the Polish office market – 45,000 m2 in Mennica Legacy Tower). What’s more, our global reach maximizes the potential of property, wherever our Clients do business (we advised in the largest investment transaction in CEE in 2019 – the sale of 11 Cash & Carry shops in Poland, Hungary and Czechia). We invest in relationships – company’s NPS score is as high as 87%.
