Hochschule Ruhr West is extending its financial support for start-ups strategically

In the bustling city of Bottrop, Germany, several significant events are unfolding.

The local police department is actively investigating a robbery at a perfumery within the city, but the exact location remains undisclosed. Witnesses are sought to aid in the investigation. Simultaneously, authorities are also dealing with a drug seizure during a raid, although the nature of the drugs and details about the raid itself are yet to be disclosed.

Away from these investigations, Bottrop is making strides in digitalization, particularly in property management. The city is aiming for increased transparency through advanced technologies such as digital mapping, virtual tours, and digital service platforms.

Drone-based GIS Mapping is one such technology being employed. By providing accurate geographic data and property insights, this technology is improving the efficiency and transparency of property tax collection, reducing errors, and increasing public trust in tax assessments.

Interactive virtual tours of properties are another tool being used to create a transparent view into real estate assets. These tours allow potential tenants or buyers to see authentic, detailed representations online, building trust and facilitating informed decision-making.

Digital service platforms are also being utilised to manage real estate services focused on energy efficiency and sustainability. Companies like Techem are using digital solutions to contribute to clearer reporting and transparency on building performance and environmental impact.

Adherence to transparency standards, such as the EPRA standards, is another aspect that some real estate firms in the region are embracing. This adherence enhances stakeholder confidence through consistent, accessible disclosures about property portfolios and financial health.

These digital tools and standards are enabling property management in Bottrop to be more open, verifiable, and trustworthy for property owners, tenants, and public entities. This ongoing digital transformation fosters a transparent environment where information is readily available and verified by technology.

In other positive news for the city, a new interactive playground called (R)etime has been engaging children and parents. This engaging space provides a fun and educational environment for families in Bottrop.

As Bottrop continues to evolve, it remains a city where investigations, digital advancements, and community initiatives coexist, shaping its vibrant landscape.

  1. Bottrop's ongoing digital transformation extends beyond property management, as it also focuses on education-and-self-development, with online-education platforms being introduced to create accessible learning opportunities for residents of all ages.
  2. Recognizing the importance of continuous learning in this digital era, Bottrop has embraced online education as a means to provide a diverse range of courses, bridging the gap between formal education and self-driven learning, thereby promoting personal development and community growth.
