Global firm CallisonRTKL has launched its new office in Berlin, serving as a platform for growth in Europe and as a new entry point into Eastern European and Scandinavian markets.
CallisonRTKL selected Berlin for its high concentration of creative business and talent in the city, while also expanding its existing network. Partnering with parent company, Arcadis, the Berlin office team includes Paul Anstatt, Ramiro Forné, and Maren Striker.
“Having an official base in Berlin gives us the opportunity to build on our solid portfolio in Europe,” says Ramiro Forné, director of the Berlin office. “As a tech hub and deeply creative city, Berlin is the ideal place for CallisonRTKL to provide our global perspective and strong, local knowledge of the continent.” “This office will initially focus on commercial markets, especially residential and hospitality, but will eventually expand to opportunities in workplace and planning and urban design,” adds CallisonRTKL executive director Todd Lundgren.
