Parking management and green roofs score in ULI proptech competition

The Urban Land Institute (ULI) Europe has announced the France and Switzerland regional winners for its PropTech Innovation Challenge.

Switzerland’s winner ShareP is a platform dedicated to promoting sustainable urban mobility. It optimises parking for businesses, residential buildings, sports arenas, and events and enables cities to better organise and plan urban parking. 

French winner Roofscapes seeks to adapt unused roof space into accessible green places to mitigate the effects of climate change and provide new outdoor areas in cities.

Sabine Georgi, executive director of ULI in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, said: “Our urban living spaces are facing immense challenges, and we need innovative solutions to be able to make cities liveable in the future. This competition has shown that the market not only has great ideas, but that there are also young people who have the courage to implement them.”

The first phase of the competition comprises six regional competitions, for France, Germany, Iberia, the Nordics, Switzerland, and the UK. Winners will participate in the second phase and the overall winner will be announced during the ULI Europe C Change Summit in Copenhagen on 11 October 2023.
