History and Development
IRSA was founded in 1943 in Argentina and later came under the leadership of Eduardo S. Elsztain, who played a central role in transforming the company into one of the country’s leading real estate investment firms.
Over time, the company expanded its focus from traditional real estate holdings to large commercial developments, including shopping centers and high-profile office properties in major Argentine cities.
As the company grew, it gained access to international capital markets through its listing on the Nasdaq, which strengthened its ability to finance new projects and expand its real estate portfolio.
Today, IRSA operates a portfolio of premium commercial properties and development projects, maintaining a strategy focused on long-term asset management, retail real estate, and large urban developments in Latin America.
