What Obiekty does

Operated by the sole proprietorship GROND MEDIA KRZYSZTOF KOGUT and headquartered in Poznań, Poland, the platform publishes the bimonthly Magazyn Obiekty, the daily-updated website obiekty.org, and an email newsletter covering property types spanning offices, warehouses, retail, hotels, residential, data centers, and industrial facilities. Editorial content is organized into thematic sections including asset/property/facility management, workplace, energy, ESG, proptech, and architecture/design, supported by a network of contributing experts from firms such as Klüh, Merck Sharp & Dohme, and PZN.

The platform monetizes through four revenue streams: ticketed industry events (Kongres Obiektów annual congress, Navigator energy management conference, Immersive Workplace), magazine subscriptions, advertising and sponsored-content placements, and RFI Book vendor directories segmented by category (Fit-out, Energy, Facility Management, Landlord and Tenant Services, CRE Technologies). It also runs recurring paid training academies (Akademia Workplace Managera, Akademia Energy Managera). Distribution is digital-first via the website and newsletter, supplemented by print magazine distribution and in-person event attendance at Warsaw venues such as the Warsaw Trade Tower and Cambridge Innovation Center.

The business has 16 employees, no disclosed external funding, and no parent company. The founder, Krzysztof Kogut, serves as Editor-in-Chief (Redaktor naczelny) and owner of the operating entity. The platform operates exclusively in Poland and positions itself as the leading dedicated B2B media brand for the Polish CRE and FM market.
