Innovation as part of our corporate DNA

As a market and innovation leader, our innovations and new business models have been setting standards for over 50 years – for our clients, ourselves, and for the construction and real estate industry.

Creators – the innovation ecosystem for the construction and real estate industry

Focusing solely on one’s own business activities may bring short-term success, but we will all have to take a new approach in the longer term. Cooperation – rather than loose networking – is the name of the game, because that’s the only way to create pioneering innovations and shape the future effectively.
[Translate to English:] Startup-Netzwerk

Startup Network

Startups develop new technologies and disruptive business models, and are digitization drivers. In the past, several industries have learned the hard way how important it is to address future trends in a timely manner. Few companies are able to master this challenge alone.
