CEO, Run this place
"Buildings must bow to the inevitable and increase their interaction with their environment, which includes both users and the surrounding district. Run this place is driving this development, while our user focus and technology are creating added value and synergy effects."

Strategic alliances and partnerships
Real estate is more than concrete, steel and glass – it shapes our environment and affects our lives in a multitude of ways. We are working with our partner Bosch to create a new kind of connection between buildings and their users. When it comes to sustainability, security and building automation, we have made it our mission to adapt real estate and entire districts to human requirements. In this respect, technology helps us just as much as expertise.
Our technology partnership with Wirelane, a forward-looking full service provider in the field of charging infrastructure, makes us a force to be reckoned with when it comes to promoting e-charging in office properties. Thanks to this cooperation within our “e-charging” feature, we can react quickly to requests for charging stations and install them without having to wait a long time for materials.
