Giancarlo Nicastro (CEO SiiLA), Leonardo Schneider (Vice-president of Secovi Rio) and Alex Veiga (CEO of Grupo Patrimar) were invited as speakers.

Giancarlo Nicastro from SiiLA delivered an overview of the Rio de Janeiro office market, covering asset distribution, vacancy rates, and takeovers in the city. The director also took SiiLA's data and analysis to provide an overview of the sector and post-pandemic, bringing together perspectives for the coming periods.

"One of the issues we consider is the issue of New Stock. The market hasn't had any new ventures since 2018, and only one is planned for 2023. The consequence of this absence of new developments should be a decline in the vacancy rate, still shy, as of 2023/2024," commented Nicastro.

During the presentation, the executive also spoke about the role Barra da Tijuca has assumed in the corporate market in Rio. "Unlike the Centro today, Barra has a lot of services, access to large shopping centres, restaurants, banks, etc.,". In the first half of 2022, the region had more than 35 thousand sq metres leased, especially by companies in the health, telecommunications and construction and real estate services sectors.

"Barra stands out a lot by comparing the quality of the surrounding regions, such as Cidade Nova, Porto and Centro. If this trend of decentralization of offices strengthens, Barra will become the great outlet for this market.".

In addition to Giancarlo, Leonardo Schneider spoke about trends in Barra's residential and commercial real estate, and Alex Veiga brought real estate perspectives to the market in the region.
