People and communities

The COIMA platform has placed the skills of its employees as a cornerstone of its growth strategy: a team of motivated and prepared professionals, who contribute to the achievement of the company’s objectives.

COIMA RES directly oversees, through its employees, the key functions of financial management, investment, investor relations, planning and management control, thanks to the contribution of six professionals who deal with the development of relations with all stakeholders of the Company.

The functions relating to Asset & Investment Management and Property & Development Management are, however, entrusted respectively to COIMA SGR and COIMA REM.

COIMA RES believes in the personal and professional growth of its employees and promotes it through the structuring of personalized training plans, also linked to the individual assessment activity aimed at enhancing the objectives achieved and focusing on areas for improvement.

In 2019, the “Knowledge Sharing Program”, an initiative involving the entire COIMA platform through the presentation of internal staff or external guests, continued and allowed to deepen the evolution of the main market trends and sector best practices.

Activities promoted by the Fondazione Riccardo Catella

The Fondazione Riccardo Catella is the main body through which the social and cultural activities of the COIMA platform are channelled. The Fondazione Riccardo Catella was created in 2005 by Manfredi Catella, founder and CEO of COIMA RES and President of the Foundation itself, with the mission of spreading the culture of sustainability in land & district development and actively contributing to improving the quality of urban life through projects aimed at enhancing public spaces and green areas. For over ten years, the Riccardo Catella Foundation has been carrying out civic-cultural projects to involve and increase the sensitiveness of citizens about the importance of urban greenery, to enhance the public areas of the city and to promote the social inclusion of all its inhabitants. Leading the Fondazione Riccardo Catella is a Board of Directors, assisted by a Scientific Committee with specialised skills.

The main project realised by the Fondazione Riccardo Catella in the last few years are the following:

BAM – BIBLIOTECA DEGLI ALBERI MILANO (since 2018)

  • BAM is a project promoted by the Fondazione Riccardo Catella. Thanks to an innovative publicprivate partnership between the Municipality of Milan and COIMA, the Fondazione Riccardo Catella is responsible for the management, safety, maintenance and cultural program of the public park Biblioteca degli Alberi. BAM is more than a park: it is a contemporary botanical garden in the heart of Milan where you can live cultural experiences in contact with nature. The Parco Biblioteca degli Alberi, landmark and green heart of the innovative skyline of Milan, with its 10 hectares of extension and its extraordinary botanical collection, is a unique example in Italy. The park, designed by the Inside Outside studio of Petra Blaisse (Amsterdam), was created by the COIMA platform which, in June 2015, took over from the Municipality of Milan as part of the great urban project of Porta Nuova

PORTA NUOVA SMART CAMP
(since 2018)

  • It is an inclusive and innovative project that brings together children with disabilities or serious and chronic diseases and healthy children in a common experience. Nature, sustainable architecture and technological innovation are the central themes of the Camp's activities, in conjunction with the values of the Fondazione Riccardo Catella and the Porta Nuova district. In July 2019, the second edition took place which involved over 45 children in a week of creative, expressive, fun and exciting activities structured on the model of recreational therapy of Dynamo Camp, coordinated by a team of professionals and volunteers

MICOLTIVO, ORTO A SCUOLA
(since 2012)

  • Since 2012, the Fondazione Riccardo Catella, in collaboration with the Municipality of Milan and with the scientific support of the Department of Education Sciences of the University of Milan-Bicocca, has been promoting the MiColtivo program, Orto a Scuola, with the aim of encouraging young generations to endorse a correct and healthy diet through the concrete experience of educational gardens installed in the courtyards of public city schools, providing for the redevelopment of these green spaces
