Sustainable Design – Building Values that Stand the Test of Time
DKG Development participated in the panel discussion “Sustainable Design – Building Values that Stand the Test of Time” during Real Expo 2026, organised by SBC Greece. Representing the company, Dr. Angela Michalopoulou, Deputy CEO of DKG Development, joined leading industry experts and institutional representatives to discuss the future of sustainable urban development, climate resilience, and the evolving role of the real estate sector in creating long-term value for cities and communities.
During the discussion, DKG Development shared its perspective on sustainable urban regeneration through the example of Piraeus Gate, highlighting the importance of Whole Life Carbon (WLC), Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), and resilient development strategies in shaping the next generation of real estate projects. The conversation reinforced the growing importance of sustainability not only as a design principle, but as a core investment and urban transformation strategy that will define the future of the built environment in Greece and beyond.
