Turning old into new: Real estate projects in the Ruhr region
At EXPO REAL, we showcase particularly innovative real estate projects from the Ruhr Metropolis. For years, the Ruhr region has succeeded time and again in filling old, previously closed sites with new life. New quarters for living and working are growing on former industrial sites.
Best practices for sustainable urban development and real estate projects in the Ruhr region will be presented at the trade fair. In particular, the projects that demonstrate the Ruhr region's transformation into a technology and knowledge location are seen here by decision-makers from all over the world.
