This area encompasses alternative real estate assets, including health and education facilities, as well as parking lots, photovoltaic parks, and life sciences ventures. Ana Gomes, a Partner at Cushman & Wakefield since 2020, will lead this business area.
The Alternatives division is part of Cushman & Wakefield Portugal’s Investment / Capital Markets department, complementing the six other major areas of expertise within the consultancy: Offices, Retail, Industrial & Logistics, Hospitality, Development, and Living.
Ana Gomes, Partner and Head of New Business and Alternatives, emphasizes “the growing demand for private education and healthcare services. The rising number of students, particularly international ones, drives this trend, while public offerings remain limited. Similarly, healthcare services face challenges due to an aging population. Cushman & Wakefield anticipates significant growth in the private sector and is well-prepared to address the associated real estate needs. Although parking lots, photovoltaic parks, and life sciences are not as prominent yet, they hold substantial potential, and the company aims to closely monitor their development.”
Ana Gomes, the current Head of New Business and Alternatives at Cushman & Wakefield, previously held responsibility for the entire industrial and logistics sector of the company in Portugal for 18 years. In 2018, she transitioned to the Investment department, where she led the urban rehabilitation, promotion, and living area. In 2020, she has been promoted to Partner.
Earlier this year, Cushman & Wakefield announced changes to its investment team, promoting Tiago Pereira (to Head of Retail Investment) and Cristina Machado (to Head of Office Investment). These promotions reflect the positive performance and growth of the consultancy in Portugal.
