Rogvian – a High-end Technology Partner at a New Premium Co-working

/in /by

In June 2021, Rogvian completed the delivery of its technological services to one of the newest elite co-working spaces in the heart of the Bulgarian capital. The “Entract 127” project stood out with its specifics stemming from the fitting of the latest state-of-the-art technologies into the cultural value of the building. Several prestigious media have recognized the new shared offices as one of the first “post-COVID” generation business projects.

COVID-19 capsized the class A office space market by sharpening the competition for investors and tenants. It further set new design requirements and defined new quality performance standards. Novel projects from the “post-COVID generation” emerged, among which the premium co-working space “Entract 127“. It brought into light one of the latest metropolitan architectural jewels located at 127, Rakovski Str, Sofia.

Shared Office Spaces

The new premium co-working features a completely renovated and modern interior located at a self-contained wing of The Slavyanska Beseda Hotel. It combines the cultural heritage of the capital with the latest architectural, design and technological trends. One of the project’s most challenging requirements was preserving the building status as a monument of culture. This was attained by its entire reconstruction, original interior design and high-end technologies.

Since July 2021, the new multifunctional office spaces of “Entract 127” have been already welcoming visitors. They present completely renovated shared business spaces located on six floors with a total area of over 2 000 sq. m. On the first floor one can find a chic and cozy reception room (on the picture below), accompanied by an open co-working space for 55 people. The latter is additionally arranged with soundproofed booths, ready-to-use kitchen spaces, comfortable relax zones, etc. Finally, the new visitors can benefit from additional three floors of 34 fully-furbished business offices, 9 meeting rooms, as well as a dedicated event space.

2020 REVIEW HIGHLIGHTS

2019 saw a total income of BGN 5.76 million generated by the companies included in the survey. This represents an increase of over 3.8% in comparison to 2018. Although showing a slight decrease, the system integrators contribute 15.7% to the total income. This ranks them third as a subsector.
