History
COIMA’s stated roots in the Italian real-estate sector go back to 1974. The official company profile identifies COIMA REM as founded in that year by the Catella family together with Domo Media. It describes COIMA REM as a real-estate development and management company that works for institutional investors and can participate across the process, from due diligence and investment to project delivery and management. A later institutional milestone for the group’s investment-management activity came in 2007, when COIMA SGR was authorized by the Bank of Italy to provide collective investment management services. COIMA SGR operates in investment and asset management. The company profile describes it as managing real-estate alternative investment funds and gives a snapshot of its portfolio and fund activity, including 35 real-estate investment funds, more than €13 billion in stabilized investments, over 220 tenants and 170 managed properties. These figures are company-reported snapshots, rather than a statement of permanent or independently verified totals. COIMA developed and continues to manage Porta Nuova in Milan, which its company profile presents as one of Europe’s prominent urban-regeneration plans. This project illustrates the group’s combination of development and ongoing management rather than a business limited to property acquisition or construction. COIMA’s activities also include offices, residences and public spaces. The group describes product innovation as involving coordination across investment, asset, development and property management, with sustainability and product innovation functions supporting that work. Its stated innovation priorities include environmental performance, the needs of tenants, building materials and methods, and the integration of technology. The group profile describes a structure of companies controlled by COIMA Holding. Alongside COIMA SGR and COIMA REM, it lists COIMA HT, which supports urban regeneration and the digital transformation of physical spaces, and COIMA Image, which works in space planning and interior design. The group’s public-facing project and news materials include Scalo Romana and the conversion of the Olympic Village into student accommodation, as well as restoration work at Hotel des Bains. Manfredi Catella is identified on the company’s leadership page as founder and CEO of COIMA SGR, its majority shareholder, and president of COIMA REM. The available company material therefore presents COIMA as an active, multi-company Italian real-estate group combining investment management, development, property operations and related design and technology capabilities. The supplied evidence does not establish a precise founding date for the COIMA group as a whole beyond its stated activity in the sector since 1974, nor does it specify a group headquarters or a stock-market listing.
