Coming up to the big three-zero

Eurobuild Awards

Outstanding Contribution to Real Estate 2023

Tomasz Lubowiecki founded 7R from humble beginnings, but in just 15 years has created a strong and well-known brand. Since then, and without the support of foreign capital, the warehouse developer has grown to become one of the leaders of the sector, successfully competing with international players. This year, he signed one of the largest M&A deals on the European real estate market by partnering with Nrep

Events

That was the night that was!

Christmas Feature

Gingerbread men and women

A few days before the evening of the Eurobuild Awards Gala, a less spectacular but equally important charity event also organised by us took place.

Stock market report

Warsaw bullish after the elections

Contech in context

As the construction industry around the world finally wakes up to the need to embrace digitalisation, former managers from the sector are forming IT startups to provide them with the tools they require. But convincing the sector that it needs this is still easier said than done

Endpiece

Postcards from home

You may or may not know this, but the inhabitants of my adopted city of Poznań have had a lot to put up with recently.
