Login Business Park in the north of Budapest, owned by Wing, is set to expand with a new hall offering more than 5,000 sqm in floor space. The project responds to distinct market needs reflecting increasing demand and increasing interest in the park.

The development is scheduled to be completed in late summer 2021.

The B&B Hotels Group secured its financial situation by acquiring €180 million, of which €100 million are funds from the launched bank loan, and €80 million is the result of a capital increase.

Additional funds will be allocated to the continuation of acquisitions and construction of new hotels in the next 5 to 10 years, also in Poland.

The authorities of Gdynia state that the maximum amount of useable residential floor space that the city needs by 2045 could be as high as 11.29 million sqm. With this much space around 266,000 people could live in the city – currently, there are around 246,000. For the city's further development both public and private investment is needed. The restrictions imposed because of the pandemic have harmed both sectors. The city of Gdynia has announced that most of the planned investments will be completed, some will be delayed, and others are to be developed as PPP projects.
