With a team led by Dr. Thorsten Kuthe, Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek advised The Grounds Real Estate Development AG on a reverse IPO by contributing The Grounds Real Estate AG to a shell company. Subsequently, a private placement in Germany was successfully completed with the subscription of 2.2 million shares. The next step will be a dual listing of The Grounds Real Estate Development AG shares in the AltX segment of Johannesburg Stock Exchange. The shares will thus be placed with institutional investors in South Africa.

The group focuses on special properties such as student and senior citizens' residences in metropolitan regions in Germany and at attractive sites as well as in up-and-coming peripheral locations.
