Launched in September 2020, Le Booster du Réemploi already brings together more than thirty major project owners and decision-makers of the real estate sector. The Boosters want to change the building and real estate habits to pave the way for new practices by increasing the material reuse. Operating as a hub, Le Booster du Réemploi helps project owners to express their demand and  connect it to offer players by making it visible and clear. The Boosters family is determined to grow and quickly transform the sector! Laetitia George and Cédric Borel initiated the project. They answer our questions.

One year after the onset of the health crisis, between hotels closures and historic fall in tourism, this  round-table gives the opportunity to analyze real estate investor strategies in this asset class in the current context.

On January 29th, Business Immo receives hotel investment experts as Johanna Capoani, MRICS of SwissLife Asset Management, Jean-Marc Palhon, Chairman of EXTENDAM and Vanguelis Panayotis, CEO of MKG Consulting, to jointly answer this essential question for the sector.

In 2015, more than 6 billion tonnes of plastic waste were lying in landfills, in the wilderness or in the ocean. For Le Pavé®, current solutions for sorting and recycling plastic are only postponing the problem without offering a sustainable response.

This is why they have developed Le Pavé® in Pantin. Both polyvalent and with infinite creative potential, the materials are created in their workshop and are entirely made up from collected and  locally transformed plastic waste. Le Pavé® offers innovative designs with varied applications: furniture, worktops, consoles… whiche are 100% made in France in a definitely circular economy!

The 19th EXTENDAM barometer brings good news! The month of October consolidated the recovery of the tourism industry, particularly in the Paris region. Driven by a return of international and business customers, Île-de-France region saw its activity increase by 12 points, with an occupancy rate of 65%.

The recovery is also confirmed in Europe, with an occupancy rate constantly increasing, going from 21% in April to 61% at the end of October 2021.

The barometer also reports an extension of the reservation window, which reaches now 6 days whereas it has long been confined to a trend of last minutes due to the uncertain sanitary context. Encouraging trends for the French hotel industry!

Creating a rich ecosystem, a green oasis in Nanterre – La Défense, Nouvelle Vague exemplary housing programme designed by Maud Caubet has just been delivered. Inclusive and focused on the living, the program features high environmental performances and guarantees outdoor space for 70% of its housing units. A milestone for tomorrow’s projects?

“In my opinion, architectural gesture without quality of life and uses serves no purpose. This everyday comfort is largely due to the care taken in designing outdoor spaces for each of the residents, whatever shape they may have. The relationship with nature and living things is crucial! “explains Maud Caubet.

So many objects we possess are used only once a year, bought for a specific occasion (work, event, a sudden and fleeting passion…). Sharing instead of consuming is the alternative offered by objects libraries such as Manivelle in Switzerland or La Boutique du Partage in Nantes. A whole range of everyday life items are available for loan, just like books. Great initiatives to fight over-consumption and to put people and mutual help back at the centre of our lives while saving money and supporting circular economy.

We wish this movement to spread throughout Europe!
