DLE Group is Now Periskop Partners
9.12.2024

DLE Group AG, an international investment advisor specializing in real estate with €2.2 billion in assets under management, has unveiled a new corporate identity and will now operate as Periskop Partners AG. Its subsidiaries will also adopt new names: Periskop Development GmbH, Periskop Living GmbH, Periskop Logistics GmbH, Periskop Capital AG, and Periskop Poland Sp. z o.o.
This rebranding reflects a more diversified business focus, with a continued emphasis on the German real estate market while also pursuing opportunities in neighboring European countries. It marks the beginning of a new chapter centered on innovation, forward-thinking, and partnership.
The name “Periskop” symbolizes foresight, perspective, and the ability to act proactively. It embodies the company's mission to not only understand current market dynamics but also anticipate emerging trends to uncover market potential for the benefit of both investors and society. The term “Partners” highlights the collaborative philosophy within the company, emphasizing strong partnerships with equity partners across its subsidiaries and its investors, built on integrity, transparency, and authenticity.
Lars Meisinger, CEO of DLE Group AG, explains:
“The name Periskop Partners reflects our expanded range of investment expertise. The former name, DLE, which stood for ‘Deutsche Landentwicklung,’ was too narrow and outdated. Over the years, we have evolved, investing through specialized teams in land development as well as in senior living, logistics, and mezzanine capital. With Periskop Partners as our new umbrella brand, we aim to underscore our partnership-driven approach with investors and the entrepreneurial involvement of our investment teams.”
With its core business areas in Land Development (Germany and Poland), Mezzanine Capital, Senior Living, and Logistics, the company is strategically positioned to address long-term megatrends such as land scarcity, age-appropriate housing, supply chain security, and the disintermediation of banks in the real estate sector. Its growth strategy is designed to create value for both investors and society.
Julien Höfer, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of DLE Group AG, adds
“The rebranding aligns with our vision for ambitious and internationally focused growth. With Periskop Partners, we are opening a new chapter for the future of the company.”
As part of the comprehensive rebranding effort, Periskop Partners is launching a new logo, corporate design, and website. This updated visual identity underscores the company’s future-focused ethos and strengthens its brand presence.
The legal rebranding from DLE Group AG to Periskop Partners AG is planned for Q2 2025, while the subsidiaries will complete their rebranding by December. The new website, www.periskop.ag, is now accessible as part of a soft launch.
