Olivia is conducive to the development of many companies in the IT sector. Earlier this year, companies such as Softserve, Acaisoft and Sentila opened their offices in Olivia. The first is one of the most dynamically developing companies in the industry, with headquarters in Austin, Texas, and Lviv, Ukraine. They have been operating on the Polish market since 2014, currently employing about 1,000 people, and their development is associated with new contracts, including from the FinTech industry operating in Southeast Asia. Acaisoft has been on the market since 2015, has offices in two locations in Poland and the United States. It specializes in programming cloud solutions for Sentila BV software, while it is a company specializing in unique programming solutions for financial markets and blockchain technology.
In Olivia's newest building, at Olivia Prime, the office with a spectacular roof terrace will be taken over by Just Join IT, the fastest growing recruitment company in the IT industry. The portal she created is visited by over 0.5 million Polish programmers every month. The same group also includes the RocketJobs.pl and HelloHR.pl portals, focusing their recruitment activities in the marketing, sales, finance, engineering, HR, BI & Data and many other industries.
New tenants are also companies from the food industry: Polish Agro (a member of an international group of 80 companies, operating in 80 countries with a turnover of over EUR 4.4 billion) and the company MIK Food, specializing in the export, trade and import of fish and seafood from such countries such as Iceland, Norway, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Indonesia, Vietnam and Chile.
Importantly, among the signed contracts, more than half were extensions of contracts or the selection of space by the current residents of Olivia. This confirms the high attractiveness of this office center on the northern Polish market. O4 Coworking, operating in Olivia, also breaks records of popularity. The shared space reservation rate is 100% in each of the 4 buildings in which O4 has its offices. Only in the first half of this year, 32 companies joined O4 - traditionally, most of them represent new technologies and software, but among the new Residents there are also businesses related to interior finishing, rental of clothing and hygiene equipment, or energy production.
- We are pleased with the number of new O4ians, and the fact that the existing customers not only stay with us, but often grow and develop - says Marta Moksa , director of O4 Coworking. Thanks to the strong synergy with Olivia Center, we can always find a much larger space for them - if they are ready for it. We also derive great satisfaction from the results of recent surveys carried out among our residents, which clearly show that being at O4 is much more than an office.
- The first half of the year allows us to be optimistic about the entire year 2022 - says Maciej Kotarski, commercialization director at Olivia Center. The Tri-City has recently been on everyone's lips, and our partners in conversations often emphasize that their employees very often think about moving to the Tri-City. The most frequently mentioned advantages are access to the sea and the beach, high-quality air, the extensive Tri-City Landscape Park and extensive infrastructure, which makes it easy to live in the Tri-City: the moraine hills surrounding the agglomeration allow you to develop sports passions. The sea is a great stimulus for practicing all kinds of water sports, and the extensive network of bicycle paths allows you to choose an ecological way of commuting to work. We also draw from all of this and run passion development clubs, perfectly integrating the Olivia community.
