EuroCis 2024 Highlights Part 3 – Go beyond today!

The EuroCIS trade fair in Düsseldorf is the leading trade fair for retail technology in Europe. A large number of international exhibitors showcase the latest IT solutions and innovations tailored specifically to the retail sector.

2024 Will Mark the Gradual Resurgence of Transaction Markets

For investors, the entry price is not the only thing that matters – the ability to invest in sustainable properties does as well.

Level Of Demand: The Level Of Excellence We Should Strive For Today And Tomorrow

Originally developed solely to meet the daily needs of consumers, shopping centers quickly became an asset class. The model worked very well for a long time, but as consumer behavior has changed, so have the requirements of tenants, operators and investors. The obvious task to satisfy customers, business partners and stakeholders is: Get your customers to return to your locations. Clear differentiation and positioning as well as a clear focus on people are crucial.
