“CREATING VIBRANT LIVING SPACES”: TURNING KING CROSS ZAGREB INTO CROATIA’S MOST MODERN SHOPPING DESTINATION

Renovating existing buildings and reducing new construction is the order of the day. Christoph Andexlinger, CEO of SES, uses the example of KING CROSS Zagreb to explain how the company is developing the established, aging center into a state-of-the-art mall with a high quality-of-stay via a complete refurbishment, thereby elevating it to the next level of success.

As the first center to introduce non-touch screen directories, Citycon Lippulaiva has paved the way for the replacement of conventional paper and plastic posters. /// Jean Carlos Delgado is the Marketing and Brand Director at HyperIn.

“Look at tomorrow’s opportunities instead of today’s problems.”

While the mood in Central and Western Europe’s retail sector is dominated by “gray clouds”, center developers and operators from the SEE and CEE regions are in a completely different situation. In an interview with ACROSS Publisher Reinhard Winiwarter, Rüdiger Dany, CEO of NEPI Rockcastle, explains his 700 million development pipeline, how NEPI is profiting from ESG, and in which regard the West can learn something from the East.
