Bruntwood SciTech, the property provider behind the Alderley Park life sciences and tech campus, has announced the launch of Nest, a new workspace offer at the Cheshire hub.
Situated within Glasshouse, Nest will house a new coworking space, as well as up to 7,500 sq ft of managed office space specifically designed for tech businesses.
The new space at the £30 million Glasshouse development is expected to welcome businesses across diverse tech sectors including software development, AI, digital health, fintech and app development. Facilities at Nest will offer occupants tech-enabled meeting rooms including table top mics, sensor enabled AV, cloud controlled access and indoor air quality sensors and monitoring as well as Bruntwood SciTech’s sector specialist business support.
Design of Nest has also been carried out with sustainability in mind, with the development achieving the WELL Building Standard, and US green LEED rating. The space is also equipped with wellness suits for yoga, pilates and meditation, and also includes access to classes at Alderley Park’s on-site gym to allow occupiers to support the wellbeing of their workforce.
Josh Whiteley, head of commercial for Bruntwood SciTech, said:
“Glasshouse was launched at the start of the pandemic and since then has proven to be a dedicated home for digital and tech businesses looking to collaborate, network and grow in a like-minded community at Alderley Park. The creation of Nest is an evolution of the existing offering at Glasshouse and will bolster its already thriving innovation cluster by providing a relaxed, creative space where future-facing businesses can incubate, expand their ideas and grow.”
