TIPS
GRI discussions are NOT panels. They are like after-dinner
conversations in one’s own living room with a few good friends
under the guidance of the moderating Chair.
Everyone participates equally, not just the Discussion
(co-)Chairs. The job of the moderating Chair is to make
EVERYBODY talk and engage. Discussion co-Chairs sit
scattered about the room and participate no more, no less
than anyone else in the room.
If connecting with new partners can be useful, we encourage you
to ENGAGE as vocally and actively as you might enjoy. This will
enable others to get to know you and you to get to know them.
The Moderating Chair will be addressing questions DIRECTLY
to particular participants, by name or by pointing at them, not
just to anyone unspecified in the room at-large, as that is usually
greeted with pregnant silence. Even so, you are encouraged to
comment, question, dissent or otherwise interject.
As no one will prompt you, please join the discussion room
of your choice in time. Rooms only fill in AFTER a discussion
starts and you need not be alarmed by a near empty room. It
will quickly get crowded.
Some participants speak so softly as to be unheard by most.
SPEAK UP and remind others to do so if you can’t hear them.
AVOID monopolizing conversation, self-promotion or
commercial pitches as the Moderating Chair has been urged to
cut them off.
The GRI format was designed to enable senior industry
leaders to share, learn and make friends in as natural,
spontaneous and collegial a setting as possible. We
welcome your suggestions as to how we can do better.
Here are a few tips that may be helpful in getting the most
out of the GRI.

Asset manager. Investor. Lender. Developer. Property manager.
The Real Estate Group at the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec combines all of the above. It owns and manages two portfolios of equity and debt investments made by companies in its network. Each company contributes to the deal flow, offering underwriting and management solutions. Professionals are divided into independent teams that specialize in a particular investment niche, region, sector, product or management style.
The Group’s strategy is based on three key parameters that have played a fundamental role in the success of many major transactions and delivered optimal financial performance, with core equity investments (stable income, premium assets), opportunistic equity investments (high return, value creation) and debt products (senior and subordinated loans and securities):
• Active management to create value through asset turnover and arbitrage between markets, holdings and products, according to the real estate cycle;• A partnership approach to share risks and expertise on local markets and act effectively on opportunities;• Rigorous risk management.
The Real Estate Group’s success also stems from its ability to carry out complex, large-scale transactions and to make efficient, advantageous use of leverage.
Two main subsidiaries, a division and about 10 member companies with business offices in various locations in the Americas, Europe and Asia serve as the Group’s operational frontline. Investment partners around the world round the network.

PENINSULA LAND, CREATING INTERNATIONAL LANDMARKS, MUMBAI, INDIA At Peninsula, we believe in building a reputation - a reputation for trust and innovation; for value addition, seeking new opportunities and always going that extra mile, for creating international landmarks. Peninsula is one of the leading and fastest growing real estate developers in Western India, now expanding into other parts of the country. Innovative international standard projects are reputed for planning, functionality, amenities and aesthetics.
As a part of the Ashok Piramal Group, we have emerged as a significant player within a remarkably short span of time with international landmarks. Since our inception in 1997, we continue to bring real value and expertise to the real estate industry.
Our contemporary designs are the result of collaborations with distinguished Indian architects, as well as with international firms of the highest repute. High quality construction by India’s leading contractors and complete customer satisfaction keep us ahead of our contemporaries.
Peninsula projects are unique and many are large layout complexes exceeding one million square feet. One such development is “Peninsula Corporate Park”, a development which uplifted an entire area and created a new commercial micro-market. Peninsula has also pioneered concepts such as ‘shoppertainment’ at “Crossroads” and recreational facilities at office complexes. Our clients are leading corporate clients and brands, both Indian and multinational. Development expertise also includes modernizing and refurbishing existing structures.
Peninsula has steadily being laying the foundations for future growth and has developed the confidence to venture out into new location across the country. With Peninsula’s nurtured teams, our systems and processes, and institutional investors’ empowerment, we have expanded our presence beyond Mumbai to other growing cities. Peninsula is now present in Nasik, Nagpur, Goa, Hyderabad and Pune, with solid efforts underway to increase presence in other cities.

For large-scale projects, Building Information Modeling (BIM) represents immense opportunity for firms to gain a much-desired competitive advantage. But full competency in BIM doesn’t happen overnight; every organization is at various stages of adoption, and each requires different levels of support at different moments in time. Satellier’s BIM management services can help you take immediate advantage of BIM no matter where you are in your adoption of the technology, accelerating schedules, improving efficiencies, and helping profit margins rise.
