    Zurich airport region – digitization and development

    [smartslider3 slider=”9″]

    The event was moderated by Monika Schärer, who confidently guided the guests through the afternoon. After a brief welcome, Arun Banovi, owner of immo!nvest/immoTable, and Christoph Lang, managing director of FRZ Flughafenregion Zürich, were briefly asked about the economic region and the connection with immo!nvest.

    In addition, Fabian Streiff from the Zurich Business Development Agency gave the first presentation and presented the region in more detail. From this it emerged that the canton of Zurich is a globally significant hub for artificial intelligence (AI). He also introduced us to the innovation hubs in the Zurich airport region, including the Digital Health Center (Bülach), The Circle (Kloten) and the Zurich Innovation Park (Dübenorf).

    As the second speaker, Hans Egloff, President of HEV Switzerland, brought us closer to the topic of digitization in the real estate industry. Using various examples, he explained the opportunities and risks of digitization. For example, the AHV number serves as a personal identifier in the electronic land register and this entails a large group of authorized users and thus a large potential for misuse.

    Before the break, Tindaro Milone, Head of Large Plants, presented the EKZ and explained what is currently happening in the energy sector. For example, the scarcity of resources, climate change, politics and customer needs. He then presented the future of energy, it is mainly about decarbonization, digitization and decentralization. Of course, sustainability is also a topic that is very topical and will continue to occupy you in the future. He completed his presentation on the subject of electricity storage.

    After the first part of the program there was a break that was used for the first talks. There were also cool drinks, refreshing fruits and delicious cakes.

    This was followed by Dadvan Yousuf, who introduced us to his platform “Dohrnii”, where everyone can easily learn about cryptocurrencies in a playful way. The presentation also included the Dohrnii Markplace, the DHN Token and the Dohrnii DAO. Finally, he made the connection and opportunities between cryptocurrencies and the real estate industry.

    Then Christoph Axmann, Chartered Surveyor MRICS at Wüest Partner, came on stage. With overviews of the population and employment development, he showed the demand in the Glattal-Furttal region. Then he showed which offer can be used to cover inquiries. Below that are investments, quantities, supply in relation to inventory and prices. Finally, he showed the development potential in the airport region.

    The last speaker was René Götz from the business development department of the city of Bülach. He introduced the business location Bülach, showed the positioning, spoke about the goals and available development areas. The key sectors of the region, the space requirements of companies and the Digital Health Center Bülach were also included in the presentation.

    The crowning glory was the exciting panel discussion with Doris Meier (Mayor of Bassersdorf), Christoph Lang (Managing Director of the FRZ Zurich Airport Region), Fabian Streiff (Local Promotion Canton of Zurich) and Heinz Eberhard (Eberhard companies).

    During the aperitif with delicious appetizers and ice cream, there was a lot of networking. The atmosphere was very good and relaxed. Especially when the draw for the competition was due. You could win a trip to the Top of Europe – Jungfrau Joch with overnight stay and dinner for 2 people. This great prize was sponsored by eSMart, which celebrated its 10th anniversary last year. Monika Schärer made it exciting and presented the award to the delighted winner Markus Nussbaum.

    We would like to take this opportunity to thank all guests and speakers for the exciting afternoon. A big thank you also goes to the Eventalm for the great and flexible organization, the friendly service and the delicious treats. But we don’t want to forget our partners either, without you such an event would not have been possible! Thanks to EKZ, eternit, eSMART, Seitzmeir, Sunrise, SVIT Zurich, Rigips, PropTechMarket, Woonig and FRZ.

    We hope to see some of you in Lausanne on October 6th and in Basel on November 24th. Until then, we wish you a nice summer!

  • A whole ship for the real estate industry

    A whole ship for the real estate industry

    Where does this saxophone come from? –Mr. G-Sax, one of the most renowned saxophonists in Switzerland, shortens the waiting time at the entrance control. “This is my 10th time here,” he says during a break in play. «The Immo-Boat was a hit right from the start. The whole real estate scene meets here in an almost familiar setting. You know each other, talk about the respective business situation and look forward to seeing you again. ” It is also clever that the Immo-Boat has always taken place on a Monday, which Marnie Baldessari from SVIT Zurich confirms: “We always plan the Immo-Boat on the last Monday of August. Because of Corona, it was September this year. But on Monday, unlike other days of the week, people have time. “

    After previous speakers such as Thomas Borer (2011), Valentin NJ Landmann (2013), Jean-Claude Biver (2016), Bertrand Piccard (2017) or Ottmar Hitzfeld (2018), this year Mario Gyr, Olympic champion, rowing world champion and European champion in the lightweight foursome without a helmsman as well as Olympic diploma holder from London 2012, the honor. In his presentation, he chatted freshly and freely from the sewing box of a top athlete and repeatedly drew parallels to today’s working life, and not only in the real estate industry. With his thoroughly sympathetic manner, he conquered the audience in no time and thanked him by handing around his gold medal, which feels much heavier than expected in terms of weight.

    Once again, the Lake Zurich tour on the MS Panta Rhei felt like a vacation: an idyllic ambience and wonderful landscapes, entertaining conversation partners and a cheerful after-work atmosphere among all guests are essential success factors. At the end of the evening there was not only fine wines and a generous aperitif, but also a cigar lounge on the sun deck. “Even people who normally don’t indulge in cigars come here to a Stump”, said one guest, almost cynically. Even the lighting glitch did not detract from the leisurely philosophizing. But on the contrary. Many a lady bobbed to the cool Mr. G-Sax beat almost like in the disco.

    True to the motto “Never Change a Winning Team”, along with SVIT CEO Pascal Stutz, Marnie Baldessari and Christoph M. Steiner, SRF presenter Monika Schärer was also present for the tenth time. No question: Both the Swiss Real Estate Association (SVIT) Zurich and the hosts ImmoScout24, Quooker, Raifeisen, Siemens Hausgeräte, Sunrise UPC and immo! Nvest can be satisfied. The tenth edition of the networking event for executives from the real estate industry will also be fondly remembered by all those involved. For Marnie Baldessari, every issue of Immo-Boat is a highlight: “We have many returning guests and we even have a waiting list. But because of Corona this has become shorter than it was before. ” Ship ahoy: See you again in 2022!
