http://e3.marco.ch/publish/sps/15171a1e/the_crisis_as_an_opportunity.1532-42-88-0-5.html

The year 2020 will be written in the history books. In spring the world came to a sudden standstill. Thanks to its prime property portfolio and good relations with its tenants, the Swiss Prime Site Group coped well with the extraordinary situation. In the interview, CEO René Zahnd looks back on the last few months and describes the future opportunities and challenges for the real estate industry.

Our high-quality properties in prime locations are also convincing through their architecture. Recently, our two new buildings YOND in Zurich and Schönburg in Berne were honored with international architecture awards. The topic of sustainability – despite, or precisely because of, current challenges – has once again gained in significance and has strengthened us in our plans. Furthermore, our group company Swiss Prime Site Solutions is developing a new living space called «Riverside». Read more about this in our stories!

We wish you an interesting read.
