FURTHER SPACES OCCUPIED IN NOVÁ KAROLINA PARK

The Nová Karolina Park office project in Ostrava has expanded its portfolio of tenants to include The IT centres Stora Enso - SDCC Ostrava (Software Development Competence Center) and Y Soft Corporation, a.s., which provides solutions for the management of printing and digitalisation. Stora Enso placed its service centre for the development and maintenance of IT systems for all of its company’s branches worldwide in more than 2500 m2 on the entire fifth storey of the southern part of the building. Y Soft Corporation occupied 690 m2 of office space, where it set up its development centre and customer support centre. Moreover, UniCredit Bank and ABB both expanded their offices here this year.

Nová Karolina Park office building went up on a site that has its genius loci and every civic amenity and excellent parking opportunities. Both its location on Ostrava’s busy 28. října Street with a tram stop right by the building’s north reception and its atrium leading to the Forum Nová Karolina shopping centre increase its attractiveness.

“The project has always interested us, we were able to see it from the old offices right from the beginning, and when the decision about the new spaces for further expansion was made. It was the preferred option, both from the employees’ perspective, being in the centre with good traffic accessibility, and for the company, with its environmental certification, prestigious location, placement of all the employees on one floor, the adaptation of the spaces to fit our needs and the opportunity for further expansion,” stated Marián Drozd, the Site Manager of Stora Enso.
