We dive into a new Lebensraum magazine entitled "NUR MUT ("BE BRAVE!”). Here, Germany´s most successful freediver Anna von Boetticher and Reinhold Knodel, owner of PANDION AG and passionate sportsman and private pilot, meet and talk about risk, courage and fear in their lives. We learn how they keep calm in extreme situations and overcome their own fears.

Promoting art and culture as well as the artistic education and development of young people is a matter close to our hearts at PANDION. As a long-standing sponsor of the Cologne Children´s Opera, we are committed to providing young people with low-threshold access to the world of art.

The high level of public interest in our major development on the Max Becker site in Cologne was once again demonstrated on 18 March in the Pattenhalle in Ehrenfeld: many members of the public accepted the invitation to find out about the current planning status of the project. The masterplan for our PĀN project was presented together with the City of Cologne, the architecture firm CITYFÖRSTER and the landscape architects from urbanegestalt. Afterwards, there was the opportunity to familiarise oneself with the urban planning concept in detail at various themed tables and to talk to the experts about the building construction, the various uses, mobility & development, open space and the environment. We collected the valuable suggestions from the public so that they can be evaluated in the next step and taken into account in the further planning process. Many thanks to all participants and all representatives of the City of Cologne!

The PANDION management team around CEO Reinhold Knodel has returned from this year´s Quo Vadis in Berlin with many insights. Our highlight of the two-day congress: the panel on "What does good architecture cost for attractive, beautiful cities that are socially just and achieve climate targets?" Together with the renowned climate researcher Prof. Dr. Joachim Schellnhuber and Petra Wesseler, President of the Federal Office for Building and Spatial Research, Reinhold Knodel was invited as a man from the field to discuss ideas and visions for the future of our cities.
