What FRAUEN !N FÜHRUNG (F!F) e.V. does

FRAUEN !N FÜHRUNG (F!F) e.V. is a German non-profit association (eingetragener Verein) founded in 2019 and headquartered in Frankfurt am Main, with its physical office at Impact Hub Munich. Its stated mission is to drive cultural change in the German real estate industry by increasing the share of women and diverse perspectives in leadership positions. The organization serves female professionals across the German real estate sector at all career stages, alongside corporate members seeking diversity initiatives and male professionals participating as allies, operating a Germany-wide footprint that spans at least nine cities including Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Frankfurt, Cologne, Düsseldorf, Stuttgart, Leipzig, and Hanover.

F!F delivers its mission through an interconnected set of programs: a SpeakerInnen directory cataloging female experts by topic (cities, management, people & culture, investment, sustainability, etc.); a Male Ally Program engaging male supporters; recurring events including the Female Leaders Close-Up format, networking meetings, and masterclasses; published Studien (studies) and Interviews featuring female leaders; the F!F Academy for continuing education; and a regular F!F Newsletter. Legal representatives are Anne Tischer and Ingeborg Maria Lang (Deputy Chairwoman), with Lang additionally serving as Head of Digital Research at Immobilien Zeitung, establishing a strategic media connection.

The business model is membership-based: companies and individuals join directly through the association's website, with membership fees, event revenue, and likely corporate sponsorships funding operations. There are no publicly disclosed pricing details, revenue figures, or funding rounds. The technology footprint is limited to standard website tooling (Google reCAPTCHA, Creator Statistiken analytics); F!F is not a technology company, and the value proposition rests on community, programming, content, and brand within a tightly defined industry vertical.

Broad incumbents

• FIABCI International Real Estate Federation: Global real estate industry federation with national chapters. Broad incumbent that operates industry networking, events, and education across multiple countries; comparable as an international industry association where F!F's niche (women in leadership) sits as a sub-program that could either complement or be replicated at chapter level.
• Urban Land Institute (ULI) Germany: Global real estate and land use research and education organization with an active Germany presence and dedicated diversity, equity, and inclusion programming. Comparable as a broad incumbent that runs industry research, events, and DEI initiatives in the same German real estate ecosystem F!F operates in.
• ZIA Zentraler Immobilien Ausschuss e.V. Germany's leading umbrella association for the real estate industry, representing the full sector to policymakers. A broad incumbent in the same German real estate ecosystem; while not women-focused, it represents the most credible potential sponsor or competitive incumbent that could absorb the DEI niche F!F occupies.
• BFW Bundesverband Freier Immobilien- und Wohnungsunternehmen e.V. Federal association of German private real estate and housing companies. A broad industry incumbent with the same domestic footprint and member base F!F targets, making it both a natural corporate member and a potential competitor if it launches its own DEI vertical.
• DV Deutscher Verband für Wohnungswesen, Städtebau und Raumordnung e.V. German association for housing, urban development, and spatial planning. Comparable as a broad German real estate/housing industry body whose membership overlaps with F!F's and which could credibly launch competing women-in-leadership programming.
• gif Gesellschaft für Immobilienwirtschaftliche Forschung e.V. German real estate industry research and education association. Comparable because it sits at the intersection of real estate industry and applied research/education — overlapping directly with F!F's Studien and F!F Academy workstreams and serving the same German real estate professional audience.

Direct peers

• CREW Network: Global commercial real estate women's network with chapters in multiple countries. Most directly comparable peer: industry-specific association driving women into commercial real estate leadership via networking, education, and research, serving the same target audience (female real estate professionals) with the same program mix F!F uses (events, mentorship, research).
• AllBright Stiftung: German non-profit foundation that publicly ranks DAX and MDAX companies by female leadership share and runs DEI programming. Comparable as a German non-profit operating in the gender-equality-in-leadership space with similar awareness, research, and corporate-engagement activities, though broader (cross-sector) than F!F's real-estate focus.

Emerging players

• WIR-Frauen im Immobilienbereich: Austrian women's network for the real estate sector. Direct functional peer — same women-in-real-estate niche — but operating in a neighboring (Austrian) market rather than competing head-on in Germany, making it a natural expansion reference and DACH-region peer.
• European Women in Real Estate (EWIRE): European network for women in real estate, focused on networking and events across European markets. Comparable emerging player operating in the same women-in-real-estate niche but at a pan-European rather than single-country scale, representing both a peer and a potential partner for F!F's DACH expansion.
