Miami’s largest landowner. “This requires a broader expertise from proven
professionals that share our vision for what a Miami neighborhood can be.”

France’s mandate is to support MANA Group’s
development goals using real estate to nurture fashion, technology and the arts
in Miami.
Michelle Abbs joins MANA as Director
of Mana Tech. Abbs has more than a decade of experience working with tech
startups in the Miami area and is an expert in technical education.
Prior to joining MANA, Abbs was Director of
Babson College’s WIN Lab where she led the program’s goals to develop South
Florida’s tech entrepreneurship and innovation landscape.
Her
expertise is expected to be critical as MANA Tech seeks to attract unicorn
technology companies to Downtown Miami and establish a global hub for the tech
sector.
The first project is the renovation of
a 40-year-old 13-story, 166,000-square foot building located at 155 S. Miami
Ave., which previously housed the federal immigration offices.
The
building is being entirely reimagined with the help of Zyscovich
Architects, which helped create MANA’s master redevelopment plan.
Construction is scheduled to begin by Q3.
