This summer, I had the opportunity to work with Veles Construction Ltd., a company dedicated to creating sustainable living spaces through innovative and practical solutions. The company operates through two primary verticals: construction, which delivers high-quality residential projects with minimal environmental impact, and research, which focuses on developing cutting-edge sustainable construction practices.

During my internship, I was involved in key projects across Strategy, Business Development, Research, and Communications. I helped shape Veles’ sustainability strategy, explored advanced technologies like energy modeling, and supported the development of net-zero emission buildings (NZEBs). My role also included analyzing market trends, managing grant applications, and refining the company’s external communications to better align with its sustainability mission.
