On the occasion of Earth Day, we want to emphasize that sustainability and health are not only values to uphold—but also investments that yield long-term returns. This mindset was front and center at the prestigious WELL Regional Summit 2025, held on April 9 in Warsaw, organized by the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI).

The summit focused on the future of healthy workplaces and living environments, particularly how well-being and sustainability can become integral to investment and development decisions.

Regina Kurucz, external WELL expert and consultant for ConvergenCE, joined the event as a speaker. In her presentation, she highlighted the ACADEMIA office building as a clear example of how environmentally conscious and health-focused solutions can be successfully integrated into economically sustainable real estate development. Zoltán Ligetvári, ConvergenCE’s Investment Director contributed to the presentation as a consultant.

The summit’s key takeaway was clear: WELL certification is no longer just a competitive advantage—it’s fast becoming a standard expectation from tenants, employees, investors, and urban communities alike. Real estate that prioritizes well-being enhances not only productivity and satisfaction but also reinforces corporate culture and shared community values.

ConvergenCE’s mission is clear: to create sustainable, health-conscious spaces that generate long-term value for those who live, work, and invest in the urban environment—an especially timely message as we celebrate Earth Day.
