What Ronesans Holding does

Rönesans Holding Anonim Şirketi is a privately held Turkish project development and construction group founded in 1993 by Dr. Erman Ilıcak and headquartered in Ankara. The company operates across five sectors — construction, real estate, healthcare, energy, and petrochemicals — as both main contractor and long-duration investor, serving government, enterprise, and consumer end markets in 40 countries through 40,000 employees of 64 nationalities. Rönesans is ranked 50th globally on the ENR Top 250 International Contractors list and has invested more than €8 billion in pioneering projects with its financial partners.

The group's core technology and physical footprint span EPC contracting with seismic isolation engineering (notably the Başakşehir Çam and Sakura City Hospital with 2,068 seismic isolators, the world's largest seismically isolated building), 577 MW of installed renewable energy capacity across wind, solar, and hydroelectric assets, 9,156 hospital beds across 3,152,000 m² of city hospital facilities under 25-year PPP concessions, 762,000 m² of commercial real estate via the publicly listed Rönesans Gayrimenkul Yatırım (RGYAS), and a $2 billion Ceyhan Polypropylene production facility with 472,500 metric tons annual capacity inside the 2,750-hectare DAPEK Industrial Zone. The group holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 certifications and 15 projects certified BREEAM Outstanding.

Rönesans's business model blends one-time EPC contracting revenue with multi-decade managed services revenue through 25-year PPP healthcare concessions, hardware-and-commodity sales from petrochemical production and renewable energy generation, and recurring rental income from commercial real estate. Its institutional shareholders include GIC (Singapore sovereign wealth fund), Meridiam Infrastructure (France), IFC ($215 million investment, 2016), TotalEnergies (50% of Rönesans Enerji), and EBRD, with additional operational partners Sojitz, Samsung C&T, and Port of Rotterdam. Capital markets access is evidenced by a $350 million sustainable Eurobond issued in October 2024 and a $1.3 billion project financing facility for the Ceyhan petrochemical complex in April 2025.
