Innovating for a Sustainable Future: The Vision of Koenig and the AVIS Umbrella Group, a pivotal member of the Board of the AVIS Umbrella, has made significant contributions to the realms of design, real estate, and sustainable energy. A pioneer of the "soft line" design aesthetic in Paris, his influence on architectural and urban development has left an indelible mark. In the 1980s, Koenig transitioned his creative talents to the development sector, erecting 2,200 residential units and commercial properties across notable destinations such as Tenerife, Lanzarote, Almeria, and Mallorca. When conventional financial institutions fell short of his ambitious vision, he strategically acquired a stake in Caixa Bank, Portugal, and established a portfolio that includes hotels and commercial centers in Switzerland and France. His journey through the banking sector is just as impressive, having collaborated with premier brokerage firms like KLM in London and working with esteemed financial institutions such as Arab Bank London and CS Zurich.In 2002, Koenig entered in a pivotal contract with Deutsche Bank Zurich as an External Asset Manager, focusing on Arabic clients and specialized bond placements. His entrepreneurial spirit is further reflected in his venture into the energy sector in the Balearic Islands, where he operated as a distributor of heavy crude oil for BP.Recognizing the environmental challenges posed by traditional energy sources, Koenig shifted his focus toward alternative energy solutions. He innovated an electric propulsion system for ships and electric vehicles, paving the way for sustainable maritime and automotive technologies.
