In association with Občanské sdružení majitelů domů v ČR, z.s. (OSMD), the International Union of Property Owners (UIPI) is happy to announce that the UIPI Renovation Tour is arriving to Prague in 20 March 2025!

This conference aims to inform Czech property owners and citizens about ongoing discussions around sustainable property development, equipping them to navigate current and emerging challenges. Building on the success of past editions of this tour, this event will bring together property owners, real estate and construction professionals, and local and European policymakers to exchange insights and perspectives.

The specific focus of the Prague edition of the UIPI Renovation Tour is the renovation of historical buildings built in the pre-World War II context, which undoubtably represents a diverse set of challenges.

The day will be divided into two sessions. The morning will be dedicated to political discussions, where representatives from various governance levels (EU and regional/local) will outline existing renovation and decarbonisation policies, initiating an open dialogue on these topics. The afternoon will feature a practical session where innovative solutions, including local and EU-led projects, will be showcased to facilitate building renovation, namely Craft, BuildupSpeed and Condoreno!
