Vision
Real estate is entering a new phase.
Value creation increasingly relies on the transformation of existing assets, new uses and the integration of multiple areas of expertise.
Based in France, IDN Capital develops real estate projects through an entrepreneurial ecosystem.
The most sustainable building is the one that already exists
We believe in the city already built. A building that has stood for forty years, sometimes a century, has proven what new construction has yet to demonstrate: it is standing, its material is amortised, the neighbourhood has grown around it. Thick walls that naturally temper heat and cold, generous ceiling heights, locations secured at a time when people built where people live: existing buildings offer qualities new construction no longer can.
Tearing down to rebuild is often a poor calculation. Requalifying is slower, more technical, less spectacular, and it is almost always the right move: for the owner, for the occupant, for the neighbourhood.
Value lies in use
An asset is not worth its location and floor area alone: it is worth what it makes possible. A vacant ground floor that becomes a place of care again, an old building that becomes a place of learning or shared living: this transformation of use creates the value we seek.
