Friends Bram Verhoeven and Ali Nassiri are to launch their own company after more than a decade each with the US logistics and industrial giant.
The Prologis veterans have been at the US company together for 10 years and have decided to branch out on their own.
Verhoeven is regional head of Northern Europe at Prologis based in Amsterdam, while Nassiri is head of fund management Europe responsible for the gargantuan Prologis European Logistics Fund (PELF), a €12 bn open ended logistics property vehicle boasting around 11.3 m 2 of assets across 12 countries in which Prologis owns a 24% stake.
Nassiri said, 'After more than a decade with Prologis, I've decided to embark on a new chapter in my professional life. I'll be pursuing a dream of mine of starting my own company together with a friend, Bram Verhoeven.'
'I am grateful to Prologis for nearly 11 years of wonderful experiences and memories. Very proud of what I have accomplished with so many awesome and talented people. We've built an amazing legacy together and I had a lot of fun too! I am leaving a very strong portfolio and fund management business behind with PELF as the undisputed €12 bn industry-leading logistics open-end property fund in Europe.'
