1/4 When will the hearings take place? The hearings start on Monday (November 4th) and run until Tuesday the following week (November 12th). They start either at 9am, 2.30pm or 6.30pm and last 180 minutes . With two parallel hearings, a maximum of six Commissioners will be heard on one day. The hearings will take place in Brussels in rooms 2Q2 and 4Q2 in the ANTALL building of the EU Parliament - but there will also be a live stream on the Parliament website. The supposedly most important hearings will take place on the last day: Parliament will examine the six designated Executive Vice-Presidents of the Commission. How do the hearings take place? The candidates will be heard by one or more of the relevant committees. Depending on the technical relevance, other committees may be invited to ask oral questions, but they will not have the right to vote. The first 15 minutes are for the designated commissioners to make an opening statement , followed by the question and answer session. Each group is given a certain amount of time for questions, which it divides among its members. The designated commissioners have twice as much time to answer as the MEPs have for their questions. At the end, the candidates can make another statement. How are the hearings evaluated? The evaluation of the designated commissioners takes place directly after the hearings. The committee coordinators of the groups in the relevant committee or committees assess in a closed session whether the candidates are suitable for the tasks assigned to them . A two-thirds majority of the committee members represented by the coordinators is required to approve or reject a candidate. Within 24 hours of the completion of the evaluation, the coordinators submit a confidential letter of recommendation. This is first reviewed by the Conference of Committee Chairs and then forwarded to the Conference of Presidents (COP) for further action. Once the COP has processed all hearings, the evaluation letters are published. What happens if there is no majority for a candidate? If a two-thirds majority of the committee members represented by the coordinators is not achieved, further written questions may be submitted or a further 90-minute hearing may be scheduled. Both options require a simple majority of the committee members represented by the coordinators. If a simple majority of coordinators cannot be achieved either, the appointment of the commissioner is voted on in a secret ballot among all committee members . A simple majority is sufficient. However, there are also agreements not to go into extra time if there is no two-thirds majority, but to jump to the end of the procedure immediately after the 180-minute hearing and let the committees vote. According to information from Table.Briefings, these considerations have already been legally examined. Source: Europe.Table

For the elections in the USA on November 5th, we have highlighted what we believe to be the qualitative differences between the candidates - which the EU should also prepare for. Depending on who wins these elections, significant changes can be expected in the economic sphere, and this will result in new requirements and challenges for logistics and thus also for Logistics Properties. We recommend being prepared for both scenarios and, at least in theory, evaluating the effects of both scenarios in order to have appropriate approaches in the drawer.

The annual meeting BVL Supply Chain CX - for the 41th time since 1984 - is the location, where new development in the logistics are discussed. What types of properties are logistics companies looking for? What requirements do they have from an operational perspective, what sustainability requirements do they need for their customers and what rent can they pay for it. Let's also discuss the future of logistics properties - the idea of OFFICETWENTYFIVE ARCHITECTURE LLP is one way to grow acceptance as well as reflect the new geopolitical situation and the enviromental implications. What role can rainwater and its storage play, what potential do autonomous trucks offer - and last but not least, what role do Logistics Properties play in the context of the Draghi report's call for increasing the EU's competitiveness?

Warmest congrats to Stéphane Séjourné for the new position as Executive Vice-President for Europe with responsibility for prosperity and industrial strategy. As association for international logistrial real estate, we need your support to strengthening European competitiveness: this also means being able to react much more quickly to changes. Here we need an initiative to speed up all approval procedures: for example, we believe that a building permit must be issued within a maximum of 6 months, but you will know that this period is significantly longer in France. Who can predict what will happen in 4 years' time, if the building permit applied for today is granted in France? This does not only apply to France, of course, but to many other EU countries. This is the key to competitiveness, particularly in the area of logistics and industrial real estate: without a real estate basis, the industry cannot achieve anything.

"The previous global paradigm is fading. The era of rapid world trade growth looks to have passed, with EU companies facing both greater competition from abroad and lower access to overseas markets. Europe has abruptly lost its most important supplier of energy, Russia. All the while, geopolitical stability is waning, and our dependencies have turned out to be vulnerabilities. Technological change is accelerating rapidly. Europe largely missed out on the digital revolution led by the internet and the productivity gains it brought: in fact, the productivity gap between the EU and the US is largely explained by the tech sector. The EU is weak in the emerging technologies that will drive future growth. Only four of the world’s top 50 tech companies are European. Yet, Europe’s need for growth is rising. The EU is entering the first period in its recent history in which growth will not be supported by rising populations. By 2040, the workforce is projected to shrink by close to 2 million workers each year. We will have to lean more on productivity to drive growth. If the EU were to maintain its average productivity growth rate since 2015, it would only be enough to keep GDP constant until 2050 – at a time when the EU is facing a series of new investment needs that will have to be financed through higher growth. To digitalise and decarbonise the economy and increase our defence capacity, the investment share in Europe will have to rise by around 5 percentage points of GDP to levels last seen in the 1960s and 70s. This is unprecedented: for comparison, the additional investments provided by the Marshall Plan between 1948-51 amounted to around 1-2% of GDP annually. If Europe cannot become more productive, we will be forced to choose. We will not be able to become, at once, a leader in new technologies, a beacon of climate responsibility and an independent player on the world stage. We will not be able to finance our social model. We will have to scale back some, if not all, of our ambitions. This is an existential challenge. Europe’s fundamental values are prosperity, equity, freedom, peace and democracy in a sustainable environment. The EU exists to ensure that Europeans can always benefit from these fundamental rights. If Europe can no longer provide them to its people – or has to trade off one against the other – it will have lost its reason for being. The only way to meet this challenge is to grow and become more productive, preserving our values of equity and social inclusion. And the only way to become more productive is for Europe to radically change." Mario Draghi Claude SAMSON Diana Diziain Thomas S. Warehouse4Economy warehouse4defense Warehouse4Data

We would particularly like to highlight the contribution of Bert Hesselink, Group Client Relationship Director at CTP, because it highlights an important shift for our industry: "The shift from cost-centric strategies to risk management is reshaping supply chain priorities. Companies are increasingly focused on minimising risk rather than just cutting costs, making location and reliability key factors in their decision-making." Claude SAMSON Diana Diziain Thomas S.
📰 In this article, Institutional Real Estate, Inc. hears from seven experts who are at the forefront of Europe's industrial real estate sector about key trends and how manufacturing companies are rethinking their supply chains and business models. Here is one key take-away insight from each expert: 🔹 ESG Demands Ramping Up 🔹 Charles Allen, Head of European Real Estate at Fiera Capital: The focus on ESG credentials is intensifying and largely due to investors pushing for decarbonised operations. This represents a huge opportunity for investors to target EPC A+, BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ and net-zero carbon construction 🔹 Reordering Priorities 🔹 Bert Hesselink, Group Client Relationship Director at CTP: The shift from cost-centric strategies to risk management is reshaping supply chain priorities. Companies are increasingly focused on minimising risk rather than just cutting costs, making location and reliability key factors in their decision-making. 🔹 More Local Hubs 🔹 Theo Soeters, Head of Fund Management at Edmond de Rothschild: The move towards decentralisation is evident as companies explore smaller, local hubs. This trend is creating high demand for space in urban locations, which offer reduced vacancy rates. 🔹 Catching Up With Demand for Green Space 🔹 Rosie Hunt, Real Estate Research Analyst at DWS Group: The enthusiasm for green spaces that office tenants have shown is now starting to influence logistics and manufacturing tenants as well. Although this trend has been slower to reach the logistics sector, it's clearly beginning to gain traction and this is shaping how and where they choose to set up their locations. 🔹 Moving Away From Traditional Manuffacuring Models 🔹 Jaromir Cernik, CTP Business Development Director, for Asia: The traditional model of producing in China and shipping to Europe is shifting. There's a growing demand for industrial spaces in Europe, driven by both local and Asian companies looking to establish or expand their presence closer to key markets. 🔹 Dynamic Regional Solutions Across Europe 🔹 Simon Durkin, Global Head of Real Estate Research at BlackRock: The rise of across Europe is dynamic, with different regions experiencing varying levels of demand. Eastern Europe is gaining traction due to lower rents and strategic advantages, but opportunities exist across the continent, including in the Netherlands and the UK. 🔹 Industrial Real Estate: Not Simple Boxes 🔹 Jean-François Tremblay, CEO of Mouve & Company: The real estate solutions needed for manufacturing are very complex; they are by no means just warehouses and this is especially true for EV manufacturing.
