2020 was different, as we spent this time caring for complete strangers. We learned a lesson from the challenges, which reminded us to cherish what we have. Considering current events, doing kindness, showing social responsibility is of high importance. Thus, we have carried a number of charity events during recent months and we are planning on continuing in future. 2021 was started by taking care of others. On behalf of our employees, partners, and residents, we brought happiness to the Tabatadzeebi family with 9 children. We gifted them with a 130 sq.m. apartment in the m² project "m²&nbsp;Chkondideli". Miracles happen when we care for each other. The main message of New Year is to care for each other inside and outside as well.

We will spare no effort, actions, and experience to complete all projects successfully to allow all affected citizens to receive their own apartments within the agreed timeframe.

The development company "m² real estate" has moved to a new phase of service culture and quality in sales. The company has opened the new sales office for loyal and future customers that are fully innovative in functional, technological and service terms, responding to all the demands of the modern person and tailored to his/her lifestyle. The space located at 118, Tsereteli Avenue is a kind of gateway to future development that breaks down hitherto existing ideas and presents the latest real estate sales opportunities. The innovative content of the new sales office is felt from the outside, where you will find the most compact, a 27 sq.m. fully furnished apartment of the company. The construction is allegedly put there with a decorative crane, which can be seen as a symbol of the fact that&nbsp;m²&nbsp;will deliver the apartment to you with a wave of their hand – without extra turmoil and time-wasting. We follow the path and enter the central sales office adapted for any visitor. The interior design and the mood exactly replicate “m²”'s philosophy: it is modern, functionally convenient and equipped with innovative technologies. However, the main thing here is the mood, the attitude towards potential customers, taking care of their comfort and time. Visiting it just once makes it possible for you to own a new apartment within an hour. You will not even have to think much about it, because with the innovative technologies used in the showroom you will accurately create an idea of ​​m²'s latest ambitious plans. In the lobby there stands a model of m³, it is placed on the so-called video wall that lets you track cars and people moving between complexes, players in stadiums or playgrounds. The model will create a mood to see better and to feel where your home is. The new gallery of m², generally in the field of sales, is an example of a revolution that completely breaks old standards and brings a new culture to life thanks to modern technology. Just imagine that you have family, children, which means you need more than one bedroom, a separate kitchen, and other extra space. Also, you prefer a specific floor, entrance, and view. In this case, you will apply the filtering method and only select the apartment that suits your needs. This is where the real magic begins - as soon as you confirm your choice, the windows of your future apartment will illuminate on the model of the complexes placed in the lobby. Then you will be able to determine what view opens up from your apartment, what is the sun's trajectory, and so on. You will pass through a central lobby and you will find yourself on a sort of "floor" where you will find not only natural size models of the apartments but also fully equipped ones. You only have to choose whether at this point you need a 27-square-meter apartment or you are ready to move into a 90-square-meter apartment with your family; here you will also find five types of the renovation made by&nbsp;m²: designers: Muscat, Cinnamon, Vanilla, Ginger or Pistachio. You are not satisfied with the menu listed? Then you have to move to the second floor and enjoy the services of the company's experienced designers, who will show you a great choice of interior materials and in the shortest possible time, they will create a completely new apartment tailored to your needs. After selecting the size and the type of renovation, it is time to purchase it. You will not have to spend too much time and energy on this, as you will get banking and all kinds of legal services on the ground. After that, you may not even think about the apartment for a while, because when the time comes,&nbsp;m² will hand you the keys to the ready-made apartment and you will open the door to a new phase of your life. This is unavoidable, as the impression received in the&nbsp;m² gallery will create you an irrevocable wish to travel till the end of this journey.

During her visit to Georgia, Ms. Katarina Mathernova, Deputy Director-General, DG NEAR, European Commission, visited a large-scale energy efficiency project implemented by the real estate developer m². The project was financed by the International Finance Corporation and the Green for Growth Fund, and supported by the EU. It is one of many EU-supported energy efficiency initiatives in Georgia. The visit examined the measures&nbsp;m²&nbsp;is able to implement in the buildings due to the support, which include improved building insulation, modern boilers and appliances, and better insulated windows and doors. For the apartments constructed as part of this initiative, the total expected annual savings of CO2 are equal to planting 210,000 trees each year. Speaking on behalf of the EU, Ms Mathernova noted: “The cheapest energy is the one you do not consume. As Georgia’s economy continues to grow, it is imperative to cut down energy use and harmful emissions, brining concrete financial benefits to the peoples, increasing their quality of life and climate protection. This is exactly what the EU, together with partners from International Financial Institutions, is helping to achieve in Georgia. We were here a year ago to launch discussions with the Government and other stakeholders on how to advance reforms enabling investment boost in energy efficiency. I am glad to be back to map out concrete steps with the government and development partner on this, but also to see that we are already on track in delivering benefits of energy efficiency to the citizens, as this project shows.” m²’s Deputy General Director, Shorena Darchiashvili stated: "Since 2014,&nbsp;m²&nbsp;has been setting the standards for building energy-efficient complexes in Georgia. Caring for the environment is a key part of our corporate social responsibility. By constructing energy-efficient complexes, our company is saving a significant amount of resources.” Green For Growth Director Olaf Zymelka, who accompanied Mrs Mathernova on the visit, stated: “The GGF has supported energy efficient buildings in Georgia since 2014 and the&nbsp;m²&nbsp; project is a prime example of the fund’s commitment to energy savings and CO2 reductions in the country. We are very pleased that the European Commission, a long-standing partner of the fund, is on site to visit this project and further show their support of the fund’s work to enhance energy efficiency and foster renewable energy.” In order to benefit from the GGF and EU support,&nbsp;m² was required to develop apartment buildings at least 20% more efficient than those built to standard Georgian construction practices. In return they received a USD 11.5 million loan, which took first risks for the investment, making it easier to raise capital from other lenders. The GGF also provided technical assistance to conduct energy audits and identify the most efficient manner to meet high energy standards.

It is the first step from the side of the state to create a new, family type of care service for children with severe disabilities who currently reside in the Nutsubidze Children’s home for children with disabilities, which means they still live in a large residential care institution. This activity fully complies with the social child care policy of the country, which is oriented on closing large residential care institutions and creating care services which are maximally close to the family environment. "The new service will allow the children with disabilities receive the care service which is based on their individual needs, in terms of health and education. This will create more opportunities for children to develop and to become fully-fledged persons’’, declares Zaza Sopromadze, the deputy Ministry of Labour, Health and Social Affairs,
