Members of the Rotary Club, a world-wide organisation uniting leading personalities from business and professional circles, accepted Radim Passer's invitation for an exclusive meeting connected with a debate on the construction development of office centres and an introduction to his life story. They discussed Radim Passer's experiences with the construction of office buildings, which he acquired while building the Nová Karolina Park office centre and, primarily, during the creation and continuing development of the unique multifunctional BB Centrum complex in Prague - Michle, and about trends in construction and ethics in business.

During the subsequent guided tour the members of the Rotary Clubs got a detailed look at the spaces of the Nová Karolina Park building and joined into a professional discussion concerning the suitability of the location, the easy traffic accessibility and the excellent offer of additional services and the emphasis on the extensive greenery throughout the project. "I am pleased that the members of the Rotary Clubs accepted our invitation to the Nová Karolina Park building that, thanks to its open and accessible atrium, is seen as a gateway from the historic city centre to the newly-urbanised Karolina area," stated Radim Passer, the Chairman of the Board of PASSERINVEST GROUP, a. s., adding, "I was very happy to answer the guests' questions concerning the current concept of a modern office space, with its high efficiency, and to discuss the advantages that these spaces bring in comparison to the past."

ABOUT THE NOVÁ KAROLINA PARK PROJECT

The Nová Karolina Park office building is sensitively located in a newly-urbanised area of Ostrava near Masarykovo náměstí and it forms a "gateway" from the historic core of the city. The developer of the project is a joint venture between PASSERINVEST GROUP and GEMO OLOMOUC. The project's architectural design comes from the drawing boards of Vít Máslo and David R. Chisholm of CMC architects. The entire project is spread out over 32 hectares of space on six storeys and it offers almost 24,600 m2 of prime office space. This is supplemented on the ground floor with 3700 m2 of space suitable for shops, services and restaurants. There are 279 underground parking spaces meant for the users of the building. Nová Karolina Park is certified as a green building according to BREEAM (BRE Environmental Assessment Method). The British BREEAM certificate is a prestigious methodology for the certification of green buildings in Europe.

PASSERINVEST GROUP, a. s., is a purely Czech development company, whose name is primarily connected with the construction of the multifunctional BB Centrum complex in Prague 4 - Michle. The company, founded in 1991 by Radim Passer, built a very good name on both a domestic and international level with this, the most successful and extensive Czech project of its kind. This is not only due to the quality of the implemented projects and the high level of provided services, but also to a sense of fair play, an accommodating relationship with the tenants/users of the buildings and the responsibility towards society and the environment. PASSERINVEST GROUP also has other interesting development projects in its portfolio.
