Development Partnership

Over the next ten years, Aeropolis Ljubljana, a city in its own right, will be built on 80 ha next to Slovenia’s central airport. Located at the strategically important intersection of two European transport corridors, this is one of the most ambitious development projects of national importance. Aeropolis Ljubljana is the key development project of Aerodrom Ljubljana, d.d., the company, which manages and develops the Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport. Its proposal is to develop the airport’s commercial infrastructure and meet the needs for hotel accommodation, office space, commercial premises and logistics services, not currently available at the airport.

Aeropolis aggregates all the characteristics of a promising real estate development project: •

Strategic Location

Advantageously located at the intersection of two transport corridors which connect central and SE Europe. •

Accessibility

Located next to the A2 motorway, the approach road to the capital city of Ljubljana; the proximity of the Port of Koper; only a few hours drive away from major business centres in neighbouring countries; and lastly, an air link to European commercial and industrial hubs, make Aeropolis an excellent starting point for successful international business. •

Profitability

The exceptional location, flexible design concept and the current lack of facilities available at the airport, make Aeropolis a prime, relatively low risk investment opportunity. •

Contemporary Design

Buildings in Aeropolis will be designed according to the most modern principles of profitability, cost-efficiency and sustainability. •

Adaptability

Planned on the principles of modular architecture, buildings in Aeropolis will allow occupiers to develop and shape space according to their needs. Developed in partnership between the property owner, Aerodrom Ljubljana d.d., and the consulting group Ržišnik Perc, experts in real estate development, Aeropolis the master plan for Aeropolis is at a point, where potential investors can be invited to join in on the project. If necessary, plans can still be adjusted to suit the interests of prospective investors. Opened to all forms of business partnership - from granting of building rights to joint ventures, Aerodrom Ljubljana, d.d., will provide you with all the necessary investment support along with straightforward information about doing business in Slovenia. Aerodrom Ljubljana, d.d., is committed to putting Aeropolis Ljubljana on the map of most innovative and vibrant European airports.

Slovenia - the European Crossroads Europe is a vibrant market and Slovenia is ideally located in its centre, at the crossroads of 5th and 10th Pan-European corridors.

The country lies between the eastern Alps and the northern tip of Adriatic sea, which extends almost into the middle of the continent, thus providing the cheapest naval route from Far eastern markets to Central Europe. The well developed traffic infrastructure, Port of Koper and Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport form a per-

Ljubljana Joźe Pućnik Airport Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport offers a scheduled direct connection to more than 30 destinations in Europe.

The number of passengers and cargo doubled within the last decade and the airport is in a process of continuous transformation, becoming an important regional distribution and logistics centre. Significant numbers of passengers and goods from Western Europe pass through the airport on their way to the south-east of the continent and onwards to their destinations in the Far East. The first stage of airside expansion comprised a new terminal I, the construction of terminal II is just about to begin. Once completed, the airport will meet the forecast increase in passenger demand but not all the expectations in terms of commercial services the modern airport users expect. It is essential that beside modern airside operations, airport provides facilities, which shorten routes, save time, and offer space for different commercial activities. A commercial centre that would fill this gap is therefore vital for airport’s success.

Aeropolis - the Crossroads of Opportunities Welcome to the year 2021. Aeropolis bustles with business life, travellers and freight traffic. In Aeropolis, all is close at hand: excellent travel connections, hotel accommodation, conference halls, offices, a variety of services and a modern logistics infrastructure. In the business district Aeropolis pulses under the entrepreneurship of the next generation. Efficiency, adaptability, profitability. The flexible office concepts can be arranged to meet your specific needs. You rent a meeting room today, an office with a secretary tomorrow. After work relaxation is also provided for; awaiting you is a shopping mall with a street-level services, interesting restaurants and speciality shops. The surrounding countryside with beautiful mountains offers a variety of outdoor activities including golf, trekking and cycling.

More about the project: www.aeropolis.si

Proximity to the airport, the number of passengers with substantial purchasing power and its metropolitan atmosphere will make Aeropolis a premium location for doing business, especially for: •

hotel and catering services,

•

logistics and distribution,

•

high-tech companies,

•

banks and insurance companies,

•

offices and agencies,

•

congresses and fairs,

•

regional branches of airline companies,

•

small businesses and start-ups,

•

retail and entertainment,

•

leisure, fitness and recreation (golf ),

•

other street-level services (drugstore, hairdresser, etc.).

Once the number of companies starts to increase, it will cause a chain reaction by attracting more consumers which will encourage new tenants to move in... a trend, which might potentially influence the price of properties in the years to come.

Time Plan The implemintation of the four key projects in Aeropolis is about to begin.

Aeropolis will radically change the appearance of the current airport. The pace of development will follow the market situation, hence the construction phases may also overlap. The traffic infrastructure will take place alongside the development of the main sections of the project. The construction of Terminal II is just about to begin; also forecast is a new access road, a railway connection, the rail and bus communication centre and several parking lots.

Current Situation

2009

More about the project: www.aeropolis.si

Construction Phase 1 (7 ha)

Phase 1

2012

The first phase of the Aeropolis development incorporates the buildings that can be linked to the existing access road. At the moment, what the airport lacks most is a business-congress centre and nighttime facilities, which is why construction of the hotel and congress centre is taking priority. In addition to constructing buildings that fall within the framework of airside activities, further enlargement of the logistics park is anticipated.

Construction Phase 2 (7 ha + 17 ha)

Phase 2

2015

The relocation of the existing access road and the completion of Terminal II will dictate the pace of the expansion in this phase. Along with the increased road traffic capacity a further expansion of the logistics centre is foreseen. The new bus station and a parking garage will be built and initial works in the business park will take off.

15

Construction Phase 3 (7 ha + 17 ha + 11 ha) Further development of Aeropolis will take place in accordance with the anticipated growth of air traffic due to the increase in the volume of transported passengers and cargo. The need for increased capacities on all levels will also dictate the expansion of projects which have already been started; a possible upgrading of the Business Centre, the Business Park will take its final form, and the Logistics Park may also expand significantly.

Phase 3

2018

16

More about the project: www.aeropolis.si

Construction Phase 4 (7 ha + 17 ha + 11 ha + 7 ha) A railway connection will round off the new Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport. Public transport will be organised within the framework of the new communications centre, increased traffic throughput and the accessibility of the airport will be mostly reflected in a further enlargement of the logistics centre.

Phase 4

More Than a Hotel Within an architecturally impressive hotel-conference complex, you’ll find a small city, complete with a myriad of attractive services. The flexible interior concept allows the tenant to phase the construction as business grows and to develop various complementary services. A modularly conceived three-wing building with five above ground floors is planned for the 30 000 m2, plot, covering more than 25 000 m2 of gross floor area. Two of the wings will be realized by 2011, the third to be built later in accordance with the development and needs of the airport. The complex will contain, along with a 168 bed hotel, a conference centre and an area with a wide range of short-term ready-to-use office spaces. Do you need an executive office suite or a meeting room for an appointment with a business partner who only has a few hours until departure? At the Aeropolis hotel you’ll be able to rent one. The above suggestions for the hotel are just to show prospective investors the myriad of possibilities the

Accomodation facilities and conference areas are currently lacking the most at the airport hence construction of the hotel is a top priority. Aerodrom Ljubljana, d.d., is already preparing the necessary documentation required to start with the construction works. SHOPS

Business Park Are you planning on constructing your own representative office building? May we suggest a building plot in a first-class location in a distinguished neighbourhood with an international business flavour? Aeropolis Business Park is for companies who value excellent links to international traffic. Especially, if they want to build their reputation along with their representative office. A 50 000 m2 of land next to the new access road is designated a low rise area with 60 % green spaces, hence the name Business Park. The construction of threestorey buildings is anticipated on individual building plots of about 2 500 to 4 000 m2, with the parking spaces on the basement floor. The contemporary architecture, an international atmosphere and excellent traffic links will be of interest to successful small and middle sized enterprises, and some larger corporations. Retail and entertainment activities will take place in the eastern part of the Park.

Business Centre The pulse of modern working life is mirrored in the glass façades of the Aeropolis business centre.

Floor Plan

The Business Centre building plot comprises 22 000 m2. According to urban spatial planning requirements up to 26 000 m2 of gross floor area can erect in the quarter. The Business Centre complex will be made up of three buildings. Each consists of three to five above the ground storeys, arranged around a central courtyard that may include roof cover. Since each building stands on its own plot (from 2 500 to 4 000 m2 in size), construction of separate, individual properties can be developed in phases. The initial phase anticipates the construction of two buildings with some 17 700 m2 gross floor area. Of the 1000 anticipated car parks, the majority are located in the belowthe-ground storey. The construction of multi-storey basement is also possible. The Business Centre is a perfect place for all kinds of business services, offices and high-tech companies. On the ground floor you’ll find restaurants, speciality shops, bars and other streetlevel services.

Logistics Park The demand for comprehensive logistics services by far surpasses what is on offer in Slovenia. There is a lack of a suitable logistics and distribution facilities from the Port of Koper to the Austrian frontier, which makes Aeropolis Logistics Park essentially a commercial opportunity. This was first felt by the company DHL, which is why their distribution centre already operates at Aeropolis. There is considerable interest on the part of logistics companies to follow the example. Moreover, the large area of about 86 000 m2 enables tenants to carry out a wide range of logistics concepts. Investors can acquire individual building plots from 2 500 to 4 000 m2 to build their own logistics facilities. The construction of multifunctional, rentable storage areas for the market is also possible. In Aeropolis logistics activities are planned over a gross floor area of 27 000 m2 in one- to two storey buildings. It is expected that an additional gross floor area of 80 000 m2 will be spread across the rest of the airport.
