Who we are

Our DNA is entrepreneurial and curious at its core

Since 2021, Flying Point has been focussing on urban regeneration on behalf of its institutional clients. Our edge lies in combining entrepreneurial agility with decades of institutional investment experience, a carefully cultivated network of business partnerships, and deep local market knowledge.

Our DNA is entrepreneurial and curious at its core. We are drawn to situations that require unconventional thinking and decisive action. Combining creativity with discipline, local insight with an international perspective, and analytical rigour with commercial instinct, we thrive where others hesitate.

We strive to be a preferred partner for all stakeholders involved such as local neighbourhoods and associations, municipalities and other public actors, planning and design consultants as well as industrial groups and operating tenants.
