01 — The brief
Cham Swiss Properties brought together colleagues from development, construction, property management and finance for a three-day learning journey in Copenhagen. The aim was to learn directly from planners, architects and urban-development experts, with insights that could be relevant back in Switzerland.
02 — The challenge
The brief went beyond architectural sightseeing. The programme needed to make space for honest exchange on the realities behind urban development: affordability, sustainable energy, mobility, placemaking, challenges and the solutions that follow.
03 — The thinking
Betreat shaped the trip as a sequence of expert encounters and city routes. The programme included DAC and Nordhavn, Copenhagen Inner Harbour, SHL, Carlsberg Byen, Jernbanebyen, Cactus Towers, Copenhagen Snake and Banegaarden — connecting built projects with the people and decisions behind them.
04 — Betreat’s role
The three-day educational journey and programme across architecture, urban development and sustainability — including guided routes, studio visits and expert exchange.
Local architecture and urban-development partners, access to relevant sites and experts, 50 double rooms for single use at 1 Hotel Copenhagen, restaurants and transport coordination.
Participant communications, event app, airport and local transport, on-site delivery, and an optional CopenHill 5-Match activity for a small subgroup.
