AI is one of the hot topics in real estate today, but how can it be used to help judge the value of future developments? What quality checks should be put in place? And how can AI boost investment management processes?
Your host is Andrew Belt and answering these questions and more is PATRIZIA Head of Investment Strategy & Data Intelligence, PD Dr Marcelo Cajias. In PAT Cast #29, Marcelo explains the advantages of using AI in investment management, details PATRIZIA’s own usage of the technology and gives an example of how AI alerted the company to the otherwise-hidden potential of a development it has managed in Berlin.

While the attractiveness of the living sector in real estate investing remains ever-present, the rules of the game are changing. A ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach no longer works, and the subsector focuses are changing, as is the ESG consideration, not to mention the bespoke approaches needed at a national level to match the many nuances required in different countries.
Dr Marcus Cieleback seeks to unpack this investment environment in his latest research report entitled The PATRIZIA Playbook of Residential Investing: Navigating the ever more diversifying residential sector.
In the latest episode of PAT Perspectives - the podcast where we ask our guests five key questions on one topic or trend shaping the real assets sector – we speak to Marcus, asking him about the inspiration behind the research, the main takeaways from the report and where the greatest opportunities within the living sector are for investors right now.

With US President Donald Trump back in office and an outspoken critic of environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles, the start of his second term has triggered a renewed wave of anti-ESG sentiment across sectors and industries. But what does this mean for real assets investors? Is this political shift changing how capital is deployed? Or is ESG still firmly embedded in investment strategy?
In PAT Cast #28, we examine whether the anti-ESG backlash is gaining traction in the world of real assets, or whether it’s simply business as usual, with commentary on the role of sustainability in the real assets ecosystem and discussions focused on government policy and targets in different jurisdictions.

Halfway through 2025 and the European real assets sector is returning to a position of strength for investment, despite the ongoing geopolitical headwinds.
Six months on from our 2025 Outlook episode where we saw promise for the sector at the start of a new economic cycle, there continues to be reasons for optimism. Core sectors in Europe are well balanced, with lower interest rates and significant fiscal stimulus packages on offer.
In this mid-year report, we hear how the digital, urban, energy and living transition megatrends - what PATRIZIA refers to as the DUEL megatrends - are shaping the future of real assets. We discuss the impact of economic uncertainty, brought on by US tariffs and ongoing trade wars. We discover where the opportunities might be from a sectoral and market perspective. And we explore why investment fundamentals, such as income growth, have become more positive for Europe.

The news in March that Germany would create a EUR 500 billion fund for investment into infrastructure and defence was warmly received by investors. The package offers stimulus to boost the country’s infrastructure and, wider than that, its economy.

In the latest episode of PAT Perspectives - the podcast where we ask our guests five key questions on one topic or trend shaping the real assets sector – we hear from Graham Matthews, PATRIZIA Head of Fund Management Infrastructure.

According to the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis, there is the potential for USD 395 billion of investment into solar photovoltaic power projects in Asia-Pacific (APAC) through to 2050.
The region is blessed with sunshine, while already challenged by the consequences of a rise in temperature attributed to carbon emissions, making renewable energy solutions seemingly a no-brainer. But is the picture as straightforward as that? And where does private investment fit in?
In PAT Cast #26, we explore the evolving renewables landscape in APAC and which parts of the region offer the greatest opportunities for scaling up solar power. And we focus on the Philippines and PATRIZIA’s recent investment in Buskowitz Energy Inc. - a leading rooftop solar energy provider in the country - which fits into PATRIZIA’s ‘RE-Infra’ strategic growth area.

Ever since PATRIZIA’s formation in 1984, the company has had a focus on the European living sector. This evergreen focus is reflected in the company’s new strategy, which is targeting growth to EUR 100 billion AUM by 2030, with the living sector one of the five growth areas central to this ambition. One of the most eye-catching sub-sectors in this growth area is student housing, or purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA). But what makes PBSA such a compelling investment proposition in Europe?
PAT Perspectives is the podcast where we ask our guests five key questions on one topic or trend shaping the real assets sector and in this episode, we meet Antonio Marin-Bataller - PATRIZIA’s Head of Investment Management Living. Antonio shares his views on where the student housing market in Europe is strongest, how the sector fits into the real estate risk spectrum and PATRIZIA’s active role in unearthing excellent student housing investment opportunities on behalf of its clients.

With rising populations and increasing demand for housing, affordability has become a critical challenge across Europe. Millions struggle to find homes within their budget, and the situation isn’t improving.
A new report from global real estate services firm JLL estimates that 23 million new homes are needed in key European markets to ease the crisis - an ambitious goal that would require EUR 5.3 trillion euros in investment. In this episode of the PAT Cast, we explore what affordable housing really means, the role of private capital in helping to address the crisis, and how investment managers, including PATRIZIA, are already facilitating an improved and growing flow of capital into the sector on behalf of clients.

As we enter a new economic cycle, the first PAT Cast of 2025 explores the outlook for global real assets. With early signs of stabilisation in the real estate market and an evolving infrastructure landscape, we outline where the most compelling opportunities lie for investors in the year ahead.
In the first part of the PAT Cast, we take a look at the opportunities and challenges for the real estate industry in 2025, including the enduring strength of the residential and industrial sectors, the rising appeal of alternative asset classes such as data centres and co-living, and the impact geopolitical factors may have on the industry.
In the second part of the episode, we assess the continued attractiveness of infrastructure as an investment asset class, with a focus on the decarbonisation and digitalisation megatrends, and identify the sectors and markets which we see bearing fruit, as well as opportunities where greater caution is advisable.

PATRIZIA’s flagship living sector development is the Havelufer Quarter in Berlin, comprising more than 1,500 units which house around 4,000 residents. The development caters for a variety of tenant needs, with options for families, senior residents and single residents, and is firmly focused on building a community through the inclusion of amenities such as co-working spaces, a kindergarten and yoga rooms.
So, where does the Havelufer fit into the wider picture of Germany’s living sector?

Around 80% of the buildings that will be standing in 2050 have already been built. So how can we make these existing structures more sustainable, energy-efficient and suitable for modern-day tenants?
That's where the concept of ‘brown to green’ comes in. Transforming outdated, inefficient buildings into environmentally friendly, energy-efficient structures that meet the demands of today and the future.
In this PAT Cast episode, we explore why companies should be pursuing brown-to-green strategies, the steps involved in decarbonising existing buildings, and how brown to green stacks up when it comes to return on investment.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the way businesses operate. From automating routine tasks and processes to increased productivity, AI can free human workers to focus on creativity and problem-solving.
Research by Amazon Web Services suggests more than one in three European firms adopted AI in 2023 - bringing the continent closer to the 2030 Digital Decade vision presented by the European Commission in 2021. But where does the real estate industry sit in this landscape? And how can businesses within real estate ensure that they don’t fall behind competitors in the sector?
In this episode, we explore how AI could help boost the real estate industry and why companies need to seriously consider adopting AI into their workforce sooner rather than later. We also hear how the Data Intelligence team at PATRIZIA has been using AI to support the company, as well as some of the challenges that come with these new technologies, and learn more about a genAI company supporting real estate firms.

So far, 2024 has been the year of transition. European countries and the UK are slowly recovering from unprecedented shocks in the previous years – a global pandemic, economic crisis, foreign wars linked to supply issues, a record number of elections. As we have reached the midpoint of 2024, it’s time to take a closer look at the current economic and financial situation, and try to understand what lies ahead.
In this episode, we examine what impact these shocks have had on the Euro zone and UK economies, and what the political responses have led to. We look at the state of key segments of the real estate market, from residential sectors to offices, and what markets remain great investments for the rest of the year and beyond. And hear how we can future proof allocations and portfolios.

With tenants increasingly desiring sustainable buildings, governments adopting legally binding net-zero carbon targets, and rising concerns around embodied carbon, decarbonising our building stock is essential - and the risks of not taking action are immense.
In this episode, we explore how decarbonisation programmes can protect or enhance the future value of an asset, how adopting a sustainable approach can help avoid stranding risks or erosions in value known as ‘brown discounts’, and why, ultimately, this is the right thing to do. We discuss the best ways of decarbonising an asset, including the benefits of retrofitting versus demolition. And we hear real world examples of both successful decarbonisation projects, and those that have failed to keep pace.

As we enter a new economic cycle that is resetting markets across the world, the first PAT Cast of 2024 examines the outlook for global real assets and where PATRIZIA expects the most attractive investment opportunities to be this year.
In this conversation, we explore both the challenges and opportunities for investors in global markets this year and examine how low investment volumes and declining values in 2023 will make 2024 a buyer's market. We also discuss the major debt and decarbonisation funding gaps and how investors can leverage these opportunities to drive value in the medium term. And our guests offer a dose of optimism, particularly when it comes to investing in sectors underpinned by the long-term megatrends of decarbonisation, urbanisation, digitalisation and demographic changes.

Solar is leading the charge in the transition away from fossil fuels and towards greater use of renewable and cleaner energy sources. And one way it can be adopted at scale in real estate is by installing solar panels on unused roof space, which generates clean energy without the need for new infrastructure.
In episode 18 of the PAT Cast - the first of a two-parter on solar investment - we hear how PATRIZIA is utilising solarfication on its logistics assets to create renewable energy, with reference to its large Maasvlakte development on the port of Rotterdam, where solar panels have been added across much of the asset’s 210,000 square metres of available roof space. We learn how solarfication is a win-win for both landlords and tenants alike. And we explore why the use of solar panels is continuing to grow in popularity and how solar developers like Sunrock are exploring how this energy can be used to better serve end users.

In this episode, we learn about this concept of urban planning that reimagines the way we build cities to enrich people's lives. We also discuss what is needed to keep pace with urbanisation amid the expected rapid growth of city populations. And we find out how data intelligence is helping us to create smarter, more connected cities.

During the pandemic, many of us will have experienced the value of last mile logistics as we relied on the seamless delivery of various packages to our doorstep. But as fundamental as these urban warehouses and storage facilities are to enriching our lives, people often associate the sector with polluting lorries and inefficient buildings, which place a major hurdle in the race against climate change. But is this image the reality?
In this episode, we find out how ultra-sustainable logistics developments actually play an integral role in the road to net zero and how the newly created GLi platform is leading the charge. We find out whether there’s a trade-off between achieving sustainability and ensuring your asset is profitable. And we find out how the logistics sector is reacting to macro trends like rising inflation and interest rates.
This conversation was recorded in a historical travelling post office at The Postal Museum in London, the venue for the LAST MILE Conference where industry stakeholders gathered to discuss the logistics sector’s challenges and future opportunities.

We cannot slow climate change without decarbonising the built environment. Globally, buildings are responsible for a significant portion of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions - that’s why this sector of the economy needs to ‘go green’. So how do we tackle one of the biggest challenges real assets have ever faced? In this episode of the PAT Cast, we explore the multitude of steps needed to decarbonise real assets, from quick wins to longer-term strategic changes. We learn about the importance of collective action in getting to the goal of ‘net-zero’ by 2050 at the latest. And we find out how institutional investors are driving forward positive change.

The pandemic has ripped up the rulebook of what ‘work’ means, empowering people to create their own definition. As employees seek more purpose and meaning in their roles, it's up to organisations to align themselves with what matters most to their people. So with such a seismic shift in the employee-employer power balance, how do organisations ensure they continue offering authenticity and value to their people? In this episode of the PAT Cast we explore how the very concept of work is changing and discuss the ways in which employers can better connect with the post-pandemic talent community. We learn about the culture and mindset needed to create an effective hybrid work strategy.
