Insights from the EPRA Sustainability Summit 2024 in London Last Thursday, the EPRA (European Public Real Estate Association) Sustainability Summit offered valuable insights into the future of sustainable practices in the listed real estate sector. ๐ก Simon Carter, CEO of British Land, highlighted that the listed real estate sector is leading the sustainable transformation, positioning it with a competitive advantage. Effectively executed green renovations โ optimizing carbon savings per invested euro โ are proving to be financially rewarding, especially with the strong demand for sustainable building from potential tenants. ๐ก Chris Kane stressed the importance of rethinking traditional models, especially in times of uncertainty. He emphasized tracking technological shifts, understanding their impact on the work environment, and prioritizing customer and user needs. The summit featured several engaging panel discussions, with topics on: โก๏ธ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ถ๐บ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐๐๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ถ๐น๐ถ๐๐ ๐ผ๐ป ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐น๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป: Exploring the โgreen premiumโ vs. the โbrown discountโ, and the financial risks of inaction. โก๏ธ ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐บ๐ผ๐ป๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ณ๐ถ๐ป๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐: Moving beyond the environmental dimension to include biodiversity, social impacts, and the influence of residential developments on communities.

EPRA Sustainability Summit 2024 โคต๏ธ It was a day filled with sharp insights and big ideas from speakers like Simon Carter and Chris Kane, followed by panel discussions on climate risk, ESG reporting, regulatory impacts, and integrating nature into the listed real estate sector. Here are some quotes I noted during the summit that resonated with me and align with our vision at Montea: โก๏ธ "Data without context is just noise." We donโt collect data just to have it. At Montea, itโs all about actionable insightsโdata that helps us truly understand tenant needs and implement real improvements. For each building, we assess which sustainable solutions fit best, ensuring tailored, effective changes. โก๏ธ "Focus on embodied carbon is growing." Weโve been tackling this head-on at Montea with low-carbon concrete and sustainable building materials. Itโs great to see the industry catching up on this crucial topic. โก๏ธ "The cost of inaction is higher than action." This belief drives our strategy. Instead of standing still, weโre investing nowโtransforming brownfield sites into future-proof, sustainable assets that deliver long-term value. โก๏ธ "The big impact comes from turning โbrownโ assets green." This has been our focus all along. We believe the biggest wins come from upgrading existing sites rather than only pursuing new developments. The shift from voluntary reporting to regulatory standards like CSRD and ISSB brings challenges, but itโs a necessary step towards clearer, more transparent benchmarks for the industry. A day full of inspiration and a reminder of why we at Montea continue to push boundaries in sustainable real estate. Thanks to all speakers for their insights.#Montea #sustainability #ESG #EPRA #CSRD #ISSB - EPRA (European Public Real Estate Association) reposted this
