CBRE Investment Management

Following the 80% acquisition of Geonova Oy by funds managed by our Private Infrastructure division earlier this month, fast-growing Finnish geothermal energy business Geonova has now acquired a portfolio of operational heating assets from One1 Oy. This strategic acquisition aligns with Geonova's growth strategy and marks a significant step forward in its rollout of EaaS projects in the #Finnish market. Funded by our capital injection, this investment forms a core part of our strategy to invest in #infrastructure assets and technologies that support the #decarbonisation of the #builtenvironment. We can support that strategy by bringing to bear the capabilities of our entire CBRE platform. Find out more here: https://cbreim.co/3BZB3AD Andreas Köttering Kerron Lezama Michael Chi Thomas Hicks

We recently hosted a series of community events across our recently acquired #residential properties in Berlin, Munich, and Frankfurt. Our goal was to create a welcoming atmosphere, foster a sense of belonging, and introduce ourselves as the new landlords.

We're thrilled to have been a part of these memorable events and hope our residents enjoyed the opportunity to build a stronger #community together. A special thanks to Christina Schwabauer, Felix Boehmer and Lucía Vázquez Echeveste for organising and to our party planners for making these days such a success.
