If a new office location for your tech company is at the top of your priority list this New Year, Ascot House, which is managed by Belfast’s premier serviced office provider, VenYou, has recently become available for lease.
For this Q&A, we sat down with VenYou Client Services Director, Donna Linehan and asked her why Ascot House would be an ideal home for a tech sector company.
Q. Tell us a bit about the Ascot House building?
Ascot House is a real ‘gem’ in terms of office buildings. It’s an open plan office across three floors, and boasts swathes of space and can accommodate between 40 and 200 members of staff. It is also fully furnished with the latest technology, fitted kitchens, meeting and interview rooms, private booths for making phone calls and is equipped with VenYou’s bespoke security system. And it’s got a great vibe about it.
Situated on Shaftesbury Square, its central location means that it is just minutes from Belfast city centre and is close to cafes, restaurants, car parks and all major transport links.
Q. What can VenYou offer a tech company?
At VenYou, we have always believed that flexibility is key, especially currently, as COVID continues to present challenges and uncertainties. We don’t believe in offering long-term lease contracts i.e five and ten years, and perhaps the best part about VenYou is that companies will only pay for the space they need, which may make the blend between office and remote working that little bit easier.
Ascot House also comes with all the latest technology including high speed WiFi and video conferencing capabilities so companies can connect to virtual calls with ease.
You’ll be able to avail of cleaning services from VenYou’s team of dedicated housekeeping staff that will ensure your office, bathrooms, kitchens and other communal areas are kept clean and tidy. All this means you can get on with the more important things like running a successful company.
Q. What experience does VenYou have when it comes to working with tech companies?
Over the years, VenYou’s serviced offices have been home to many of Northern Ireland’s most successful companies including those from the tech sector.
Our team is knowledgeable and fully understands the landscape of the local business economy which is why we believe so firmly in remaining flexible. It’s the only way to ensure success when the market remains quite uncertain with regards to COVID restrictions.
We have supported hundreds of businesses throughout the years, across many different sectors including tech. We have so much experience and expertise to call upon that any business that decides to make Ascot House their new home, will be in very safe hands with the VenYou team.
Q. What makes Ascot House perfect for a tech company?
Our previous experience has taught us that collaborative working is quite often a huge part of the office environment when it comes to the tech sector and the space available at Ascot House lends itself to that.
We know that as people return to the office in the future – whether that is full time or following a more hybrid model – that staff’s health and safety will be a huge priority. Due to the sheer size of the office building, there is ample space to maintain social distancing and our housekeeping team undertake a regular and robust cleaning schedule.
Not to mention the locality of the building means that you will be close to the heart of the city and can meet and converse with potential clients and industry colleagues. If you need to travel anywhere, ports and airports are also merely a stone’s throw away.
If you are looking for an office space that is central, can accommodate between 40 and 200 members of staff, comes equipped with all the modern technology and amenities you could ever need, all in one flexible monthly payment and managed by one of the best serviced office providers in Belfast, Ascot House could be the one for you!
