Urban Partners unifies real estate strategies under one brand
As we celebrate our 20th anniversary, we are completing the rebrand process we began in 2022. Two years after introducing Urban Partners to reflect our urban vision, our real estate brands Nrep and Velo Capital will gradually phase out and be brought together under the single identity of Urban Partners in 2026.

Investing for a resilient future of cities
Sustainability remains fundamental to our investment strategies, not just as a value driver but as sound business logic. Energy consumption and production, as well as risks associated with future regulations and physical climate risks make decarbonization an integral part of our investment decisions across real estate and technology - necessary for both short-term results and long-term value creation.
No one can move the needle alone
Mission-aligned partnership is in our DNA. In order to make a lasting, real impact, we partner up with like-minded organizations to unleash our collective strengths and resources to tackle complex challenges for all stakeholders.
