• Katowice, Chorzów, Gliwice, Tychy and Zabrze – these are among the Silesian cities where residential facilities will be built as part of the Mieszkanie Plus (‘Housing Plus’) Programme. How to utilise it effectively and adjust it to local needs?
• Is and will the programme be the driving force behind new investment projects tailored to the pockets of the inhabitants of Silesia?

Revitalisation is a difficult and costly business that will prove profitable only in the longer term. In this case, major roles are played by social diagnosis and improvement in the quality of life of the inhabitants, and not by the financial result

Katowice has bravely fought its way into the circle of main players competing for investors from the SSC/BPO sector. In terms of the amount of modern office space, Katowice has outstripped Poznań, thus becoming the fourth regional market in Poland in this regard. However, the rivalry for lessees is becoming fiercer. Will office buildings in Katowice keep attracting lessees effectively with more and more interesting designs and facilities/incentives? Do the support from local authorities and investment comfort still constitute the greatest assets of investing in that location?

Smart technologies are not reserved exclusively for luxury villas. Today even a small flat can be equipped with functional solutions and devices that can be controlled using a mobile phone. How to equip home interiors with smart installations? What to recommend to the customers?
