Groupe Cardinal

Groupe Cardinal, founded in 2001 and headquartered in France, is a renowned player in the real estate industry, focusing on promotion, real estate investment, and property management. The company stands out for its commitment to innovation and avant-garde architecture, collaborating with distinguished architects and designers such as Jean Nouvel, Rudy Ricciotti, Philippe Starck, Jakob+MacFarlane. Noteworthy projects include the construction of headquarters for major French and international companies such as the world headquarters of Euronews, the regional headquarters of Véolia, and the headquarters of AKKA Technologies. Apart from its impressive real estate portfolio, Groupe Cardinal places a high emphasis on user experience and environmental benevolence. The company has ventured into eco-friendly designs, including the pioneering Bjorg, Bonneterre et Cie headquarters, the first WELL-certified building in France, and eco-districts like the Docks de Lyon at Confluence. Furthermore, the company has diversified its offerings, including the development of hotels such as Mama Shelter in collaboration with the Trigano family and innovative urban motels like MOB HOTEL. Groupe Cardinal also manages and animates over 4,700 units in the student housing, coliving, coworking, and para-hotel sectors. In 2022, a significant development occurred as Groupe Cardinal became part of the Eaglestone Group, a leading European player in real estate development and investment, active in Belgium, Luxembourg, and France. Eaglestone's focus on strong environmental initiatives aligns with Cardinal's values, aiming for carbon neutrality and occupant well-being, obtaining international certifications. The brands under the Groupe Cardinal umbrella include Cardinal, Cardinal Campus, and Cardinal Workside, reflecting the company's ethos of "Un peu de béton, beaucoup d'imagination" (#Promotion #Gestion #Investissement #EnsemblierUrbain #ResistTheUsual). This union with Eaglestone signifies a strategic move towards broader European market potential and a continued commitment to innovative, sustainable real estate endeavors.
