Joining Europe’s housing and hospitality conversation with global experience

We're not exporting an American playbook. We're combining Matthews' development capabilities with European expertise.

Why now

Across Switzerland and Western Europe, housing and hospitality are at the center of public debate. Cities are balancing growth, affordability, and livability, while welcoming record tourism and new investment. It’s a conversation filled with urgency, but also with possibility.

Matthews enters this dialogue not with ready-made answers, but with a track record of building communities that last. From Dallas to Toronto to Dubai, we’ve shown how global expertise, when paired with local insight, can deliver projects that strengthen cities for the long term.

Our approach

Listen first — understanding priorities from the ground up.
Build responsibly — aligning with sustainability, culture, and community values.
Partner deeply — combining Matthews’ platform with local expertise and capital.

Why Switzerland, why now

Our European journey begins in Switzerland, led by Dr. Andreas Steinbauer. His experience and relationships anchor us in local expectations, ensuring that Matthews’ role is to complement, not compete. From this foundation, we’re engaging with partners across Western Europe to explore opportunities that reflect shared vision and long-term commitment.
