Global Real Estate Run: Global event for innovation and sustainability in the real estate industry

Schweiz, April 2021

It's time to add variety to everyday home office life: On April 30, 2021, the Global Real Estate Run initiative is calling for a corona-compliant run. Anyone can easily register for the 6 kilometers to be completed via online registration. The participant then receives access to a geotagged app. The route can be chosen freely. The initiators plant a tree for each participant.

In the home office, slowly but surely, the ceiling is falling on the head of some people. Even if Corona continues to require you to keep your distance from one another, it is time for a sense of community. For this reason, the Global Real Estate Run initiative is launching a run for everyone.

On April 30, 2021, 6 kilometers must be completed in a time window of 24 hours: every participant is free to run, run or walk. Anyone can take part – anywhere in the world. The run is of course 100 percent corona-compliant: the 6 kilometers are completed on a route of your choice, regardless of location. Registration on the Globalrealestaterun.com website is required to participate. Each participant then has access to a geotagged app that is compatible with other running apps.

In addition to the community feeling and the health aspect, the initiators would like to draw attention to innovation and sustainability in the real estate industry. The real estate industry is currently responsible for around 30 percent of all CO2 emissions. This proportion must be reduced quickly and efficiently. And everyone can contribute something. Because sustainability is not a local but a global issue. Just like the Global Real Estate Run.

Of course, the initiators have also made sustainability a priority: thanks to the commitment of the main sponsors Homegate, SPG Intercity Zurich AG and PropTechMarket, a tree can be planted for each participant. This is done in cooperation with qualified organizations in suitable regions and under fair conditions. The goal: to get as many people as possible to complete the 6 kilometers on April 30th – and thus to plant as many trees as possible.

Individuals, families, teams and entire companies can take part. Employees and customers can thus be offered variety and distraction. There are therefore special event packages for companies and teams. Participation is free for private individuals – a voluntary amount can be added at your own discretion.

In order to shorten the time until April 30th, the initiators continuously publish exciting and informative articles on the topics of innovation and sustainability in the real estate industry on Globalrealestaterun.com. This includes, for example, a checklist on how private individuals can save energy.
