The JCV & Associates Headquarters (JCVA) in Avire Tower, Quezon City, Philippines, has achieved IMMUNE Building Standard™ - 4 stars - Powerful. 

“Being IMMUNE Powerful means being resilient against the challenges of the future. At JCVA, we seek to be at the forefront of the growing IMMUNE-certified community in the Philippines", said Jason C. Valderrama, President & CEO, JCV & Associates Project Management and Development Inc.

Menarco Tower, a multi-awarded boutique office development situated in Bonifacio Global City, Metro Manila, managed and owned by one of the most innovative real estate developers in the country, Menarco Development, obtained a 5-star IMMUNE Building Standard™ certification for Shell & Core.

The IMMUNE Building Standard™ now also covers educational institutions buildings.

St. Catherine's British School, an international school located in northern Athens, Greece, obtained the highest certification level of the IMMUNE Building Standard™, becoming the first certified educational institution in the world.

At the invitation of Philippine Association for Building Administration, Healthy by Design Building Institute will join their Monthly General Membership Meeting to discuss the IMMUNE Building Standard™. Creating an IMMUNE™ building brings tremendous benefits for anyone owning, occupying or designing healthy buildings. There has never been a better time than today to show vision and leadership in driving change. 

First in the region, two office buildings of one of the largest real-estate developers in the Philippines, MREIT Inc., a Megaworld company operating as a Real Estate Investment Trust, received the IMMUNE^TM certification for Shell & Core, achieving the label Powerful - 4 stars.

Even though Romania ended the state of alert, the health of indoor spaces remains an important concern for employees. Nearly 92% of respondents say additional measures are needed in offices to better protect employees' health, the survey also shows.

This confirms the need for long-term solutions that turn offices into platforms that truly support collaboration and real interaction, but also limit health risks.

We would like to extend our congratulations to Navana Property Group, as they have been shortlisted for the 'Health & Wellbeing Initiative - Residential' for the 2022 RESI Awards, following their contribution to the IMMUNE Building Standard™ and obtaining first-in-the-world residential certification for 1 Palace Place.

The RESI Awards recognise the residential property sector and its successes.

Nearly 60% of Romanian employees say their company's policy is to work only from the office or in a hybrid system with mainly physical presence, while another nearly 30% go to the office only when they need to interact with colleagues or feel the need to socialize. More than 70% want to work from the office in 2022 or at least in a hybrid system.

Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors developed IBOS - International Building Operation Standard, a new approach to measure and manage how buildings perform for people, through data.​

​IMMUNE™ has been listed as an existing tool that can be applied, alongside with other emerging global standards and certifications that address the quality of sustainability, communications technology and support for the well-being of users.​
