Our expertise to study and manage your urban regeneration projects

Do you have a collaboration idea with other entities and organisations that you would like to turn into a sustainable and innovative project?

Do you have a property or an unused area that you would like to enhance, generating a positive impact for the local community?

Do you want to promote high-impact social initiatives by catalysing resources in your local area?

The stakeholders we have supported

We build partnerships among different stakeholders: local public authorities, private sector entities, and third-sector organisations who can share challenges and cooperate.

SPACES

The spaces we have reactivated

We bring so-called “urban voids” back into use: abandoned spaces, underutilised buildings, and disused areas, that can host new functions and new activities.

OPPORTUNITIES

The funding programmes we have managed

We work to secure the resources needed for projects by applying for funding opportunities and managing available public funds in an integrated manner across different sectors.
