Berlin-based property developer KOIMO Development GmbH is strengthening its team with Nina Weber. The experienced manager joined the company in October as Senior Project Manager. Decisive for her appointment was her many years of experience at the intersection of academic research, industry, and commercial implementation.
Prior to joining KOIMO, Weber served as Managing Director of the Mobility2Grid research campus from 2020. In this role, she steered cooperation between commercial and academic partners with differing working methods, oversaw communications, supported members of Mobility2Grid e.V., and engaged with stakeholder groups. KOIMO itself is a partner in this research campus, where stakeholders collaboratively develop solutions for sustainable urban energy and mobility systems.
Transfer site for urban energy and mobility concepts
Nina Weber's expertise is set to feed significantly into the further development of the model campus ringberlin. The site functions as a transfer location for the Mobility2Grid research campus to test and apply innovative concepts under real-world operating conditions. Matthias Menger, Managing Director of KOIMO Development GmbH, emphasised that Weber's understanding of the stakeholders and the transfer processes from research into practical application is of central value to the venture. The objective is a location where new solutions can be validated in practice.
Commenting on her move, Weber explained that Mobility2Grid impressively demonstrates the potential of collaborative approaches between academia and business. At KOIMO, she can now bring this experience directly to the delivery of a built location and deepen the transfer of innovations by purposefully connecting relevant partners.
