Posted on by Katarzyna Halicka


Bayer Global Business Services Gdańsk
 occupies 4 floors of the Olivia Tower building and is one of the longest-residing companies in Olivia. Current lease agreement of 4200 sq. m. has been extended for a further 5 years. As a result, rearrangement works have also begun, for which the architectural office,
Design Anatomy
, is responsible.

 

Olivia’s award-winning architectural studio announces that the renovated space of Bayer will meet the latest standards of office design, and there will be several pleasant surprises waiting for employees in the interiors.

 

“Following new trends in the office industry, Bayer GBS is rearranging its office in order to create a friendly and multifunctional space for its employees ,” says Barbara Wasilewska from Design Anatomy. – The hybrid work model allows for the reduction of standard workstations in favor of zones for informal meetings and relaxation. The offices will be dedicated to functions such as: game room, chillout, relax, mothers room. The new office will feature a variety of workplaces, both in the form of hot desks and separate rooms with treadmills and exercise bikes specially adapted for work. The décor of the office will also be changed. Following the idea of zero waste, we will use as many existing elements as possible. The space will be complemented by telephone booths, soft furniture of various forms and functions, and greenery.

 

“Our presence in Olivia Centre is based not only on favourable office conditions ,” says Remigiusz Wojciechowski, Head of Bayer Global Business Services Gdańsk. – We feel a part of Olivia’s community, we take part in numerous social projects, and together we develop the initiatives initiated at Bayer GBS Gdańsk by inviting employees of other companies to cooperate. Olivia Centre is a unique space that is appreciated by both our employees and guests, not only because of its convenient location. Also, the extensive possibilities offered by Olivia Garden, the observation deck and numerous services make Olivia meet our expectations. We have been in Olivia Centre for 11 years now and we will be happy to stay for many years to come.

“Bayer GBS is an exceptionally strong resident of Olivia Employees often take part in joint projects, including being represented in the Olivia Choir. Not everyone knows, but the Choir itself also has its roots in Bayer. – says Bogusław Wieczorek from Olivia Centre. – This year, the Bayer GBS team in Gdańsk won the statuette in the Olivia Prize competition in the category Olivia Pro Bono for the Border Angels project, UA support hotline. It was a well-deserved award, which was awarded by a jury consisting of managers of Olivia’s resident companies. Within just a few days of the outbreak of the war, Bayer employees around the world organized themselves from the bottom up, creating a list of so-called “Bayer Workers”. shelters, i.e. flats or rooms (often in their private homes), which they were ready to make available to their colleagues from Ukraine. The result of the work of the entire group was the provision of care and support for over 550 people, 200 beds, which were used by a total of 430 people. 130 employees of the Gdańsk branch of Bayer were involved in the project. We are proud that Bayer GBS is one of the companies with offices in Olivia.

Olivia Centre with Tork PaperCircle certificate: we close the loop!

Posted on by Bogusław Wieczorek

As the first business center in Poland, we have officially joined the program Tork PaperCircle – an innovative project that completely recycles paper towels. From 1 May 2022, all towels used in Olivia Centre’s buildings are recycled and turned into new paper products to be used again. Now we have the certificate to prove it!

 

The scale of this project is impressive – over 7 tonnes of towels used in Olivia Centre were recycled over eight months, from 1 May to 31 December 2022. The waste is regularly collected and processed at the local Essity factory into new paper products. Thanks to the implementation of the program, we have reduced our carbon dioxide emissions by 3,040 kg! This exorbitant amount ofCO2 is equivalent to the amount that about 140 mature trees absorb in a year.

 

We are happy to implement all innovations that are conducive to environmental protection. Tork PaperCircle is our next eco-friendly project. A sense of responsibility for the environment has always been with us: at the initial design stage, each building is subject to a strict assessment as part of BREEAM certification. All our buildings have received ratings from very good to excellent. In addition to technologically advanced pro-environmental solutions, we also use other, much simpler ones, such as biological protection of our center using the falconry method.

Sii with a lease agreement for 5 floors in Olivia Centre

Posted on by Katarzyna Halicka

Sii has had its offices in Olivia Centre since 2010. It is therefore one of the longest-standing companies here. Sii has currently signed a lease agreement for 5 floors in Olivia Prime – the newest building of our center. The contract amounts to a total area of 10 thousand euros. m.kw. At the same time, arrangement works have begun, which will raise Sii’s offices to an even higher level than before.

 


Sii
 is the most dynamically developing provider of consulting, IT and engineering services in Poland. The company employs 8,000 people in 15 branches in the largest cities in the country, continuously obtaining the “Great Place to Work” status since 2015. This term is reflected not only in the company’s mission, but also in the amenities that Sii offers to employees. Innovative solutions open to their needs have been noticed by the jury of numerous competitions in which Sii’s office in Olivia Centre has won awards. Among them was the SuperStar distinction in a competition organized by CBRE, the status of the best office in the Tri-City awarded by the local media and a nomination for the international Property Design Awards.

 

Design Anatomy

studio was responsible for the award-winning project, which was also entrusted with the work on the new interior design.

 

– 5 years ago, when designing Sii’s office, we put a lot of emphasis on common spaces – says Justyna Biłat, architect from Design Anatomy. – There are zones for integration, casual meetings, relaxation and sport. Once again, the bar has been set very high, but after 5 years, we know that Sii’s investment in spaces where employees can work, meet, relax or have fun more freely was the right thing to do, and despite the passage of time and radically changing trends at work, it still has a positive impact on the users of the space and remains fully functional. After this time, we are richer with the experience of the users of the existing space and we also know how their needs have changed. This is a great opportunity and chance to raise the standard of the office to an even higher level in the area of caring for the well-being of employees and creating a space tailored to their requirements by designing new spaces. We continue to focus on spaces that are accessible to all. The aim of the project is to ensure the physical and mental comfort of employees. We will offer the latest ergonomic solutions, we want to take care of the climate in the office, not only in terms of visuals, but also air quality and acoustics. The goal of our joint activities is to be an office supporting the well-being of employees, which will maintain its friendliness for the next 5 years, and maybe even longer.

 

Among the areas identified by Design Anatomy and agreed with Sii, on which the architects will focus are acoustic comfort and greenery.

 

“In the modern world, we are constantly surrounded by noise,” emphasizes Justyna Biłat. At work, too, we have to deal with sounds coming from all directions. The office is not only what we see, but also what we hear. In the office, the needs of people with very different characteristics and different types of work are mixed. For many people, noise interferes with their ability to concentrate on work, while others cannot imagine effective activities without music. Excessive noise has a negative impact on well-being, often becomes the cause of chronic stress and reduces productivity. Thinking about improving Sii’s workspace, we want to create an acoustically pleasing environment that will provide high comfort to all people in the office. Therefore, in all the zones in which we are going to interfere, there will be as many elements as possible to improve sound absorption and disperse it. There is a wide range of solutions on the market, from acoustic panels made of wood wool, PET or felt, through acoustic lamps, curtains and furniture. All these elements will help us in our efforts to improve the comfort of office users.

 

Design Anatomy, by designing an employee-friendly, green space, can benefit from its extensive interior design experience, which has gained m.in. at
Olivia Garden
. It is also an award-winning project that has become the green heart of Olivia Centre.

 

Contact with nature has a beneficial effect on human well-being. This is where the well-known trend of biophilic design comes in. Designing spaces in this spirit helps to reduce stress, maintain emotional balance, supports regeneration, increases creativity and productivity, and even reduces absenteeism at work.

 

– Plants in the office increase the humidity level in the air. In the interiors of Sii’s office, we want to use species that purify the air, acting as natural filters that absorb harmful substances. We know which species purify the air from fungi and bacteria, and we focus our attention on them, thinking about a work environment that has a positive effect on humans. – adds Justyna Biłat.

 

“We are very optimistic about the future and the continuation of our cooperation with Olivia Centre. We are glad that we can be a part of a space that provides extremely comfortable and attractive working conditions for our employees and business partners – says Izabela Sobolew, Office Manager at Sii Poland. – An interesting and comfortable space, an excellent location of the office in the heart of the Tri-City, as well as the highest safety standards of the entire facility are just some of the advantages of Olivia, which give us confidence that our employees will come to work with satisfaction.

 

– Sii has been our business partner for 13 years and we are very pleased to receive such a great commitment of the company in the Tri-City – says Bogusław Wieczorek, Plenipotentiary of the Management Board of Olivia Centre. – Her unconventional approach to employees and the unique amenities that await them in the office make their presence in Olivia a great value for the community. Sii is a conscious and perceived resident. This year, their project EVAA – Ecological Vertical Agriculture Assistant – a concept that uses artificial intelligence to solve the problem of hunger in the world won the main prize in the Olivia Eco category as part of the Olivia Prize competition. It is an initiative in which representatives of residents select the most interesting projects with the greatest development potential from among the projects they implement. As part of the Sii project, plants develop without the use of soil, and all the substances they need to develop come from water and are dosed by an algorithm responsible for monitoring the proper development of the plant. The project has already been noticed around the world and shows how interesting and versatile Sii is.

 

 

Olivia with record-breaking interest from bondholders

Posted on by Katarzyna Halicka

On 13 April, series S bonds were issued, issued by Olivia Fin Sp. z o.o. SKA – a company belonging to the Tonsa Group, which is the owner of Olivia Centre. The first issue under the Third Bond Issue Programme, worth PLN 11.5 million, attracted 236 investors, whose subscriptions had to be reduced by more than 55%. This means that the total demand amounted to nearly PLN 26 million. This result confirms the high confidence of investors in the largest mix-used project in Poland, which is being developed in the Tri-City. The issue was carried out with the participation of brokerage houses Noble Securities and Michael Ström.

 

The average value of an order to purchase 3.5-year bonds was nearly 110 thousand. £. Their interest rate is variable and has been set on the basis of a three-month WIBOR + 6% margin. The bondholders were mainly individual investors, clients of brokerage houses that kept subscriptions. On 11 April, the Warsaw Stock Exchange adopted a resolution to introduce this series of bonds to the alternative trading system on Catalyst.

 

This is another reduction in subscriptions for bonds issued by Olivia FIN, but the last issue recorded the highest level so far. During the 13 years of the project’s development, there were as many as 31 issues out of over 560 million. PLN 18, of which PLN 350 million has already been repaid.

 

The success of the next issue and such a high interest in bonds from investors confirm the credibility of the project –
says Bogusław Wieczorek, legal counsel handling the programme on the part of Olivia Centre
. – At the same time, it confirms the trust in the project that has been carried out for 13 years and the investors’ acceptance of the direction of its development. Olivia is moving towards a multifunctional centre that combines additional functions for employees, but remains open to residents and tourists, offering them 12 restaurants, an exotic Olivia Garden, an observation deck with a 360° panorama. for the entire Tri-City and the Bay of Gdansk and a conference and event center. Projects are being prepared that will allow residential apartments for long-term rental and other office buildings to be added to this list.

 

I am glad that Olivia Group has chosen Noble
Securities
 on your partner and that our cooperation has been going on for 13 years. We have been providing the group with financing for the Olivia Centre project practically from the very beginning, observing how more and more buildings are being built, complementing the landscape of the Tri-City and filling the demand for office space in this region. I

am equally pleased and satisfied with the fact that – having a long-standing, exemplary history on the debt securities market – the Olivia

Group has decided to enter the Catalyst

platform. In the recent public offering, Olivia Fin offered the purchase of bonds to a wide range of recipients. The terms offered to investors are a market compromise, which is reflected in the price of the listed Catalyst Bonds. Before the offer, we expected a lot of interest, but I have to admit that the final demand exceeded our expectations. The above confirms that in today’s demanding market, investors crave quality issuers, and we consider Olivia Fin and the group to be one of them Olivia. – said Wojciech Gąsowski, Managing Director, Investment Banking Department at Noble Securities S.A.

 

Olivia Centre is the largest business centre in northern Poland and one of the largest in Central and Eastern Europe. It consists of 9 buildings located in the center of the Tri-City. The area of the Gdańsk centre is currently 175,000. m2, and ultimately it is expected to significantly exceed 200 thousand. m2.

Start in Pomerania – a unique edition of Recruitment Speed Dating at O4 Coworking

Posted on by Katarzyna Halicka

The sixth edition of Recruitment Speed Dating, which they have been organizing for students and employers from Olivia Centre and O4 Coworking for three years, has gained a new version. This time, the event is open to students of all universities from the Pomeranian Voivodeship. Start in Pomerania – the workshops ended with an unusual form of recruitment are a chance for 120 students to find a job.

 

What is the Start in Pomerania project?

Students from universities in Pomerania can choose from three May workshop dates, during which, under the supervision of experts from the HR and management industry, they will receive practical tips on how to strengthen their position on the labor market. In total, about 120 people will be able to take part in the workshops.

 

What’s next? Out of all the workshop participants, the best 20 will be selected and will have a chance to take part in the spring edition of Recruitment Speed Dating.

 

The workshops will be held on three dates to choose from: May 10, 17 and 23 from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and participation is completely free of charge. Students will learn universal rules for writing professional application documents, practical tips on how to make information about yourself more attractive – in your CV, on Linkedin or how to increase the chance of being invited to an interview with your CV. The second part of the training will be devoted to self-presentation. Participants will learn how to talk about themselves in order to attract attention and convey the right content, or learn the secrets of effective pitching.

What is Recruitment Speed Dating all about?

Speed dating – speed dating, which aims to connect two people with each other, is increasingly being used in business. They have also become an effective form of recruitment in various industries. Around the world, as well as in Poland, such meetings are organized to familiarize employers with job seekers. Labour market giants such as Microsoft, Apple, Google and Airbnb take part in them.

 

O4 Coworking has already organized 5 editions of recruitment dates…

… And there is evidence that it works!

– We are after five editions and we already know that Speed Dating Recruitment has a chance to shorten the distance between the employee and the employer, give the job advertisement a human face, and warm up the image of large and small organizations. At the same time, it allows people with little professional experience to show themselves more fully than through a piece of paper, to experience – a bit relaxed and cheerful – and to build their first business relationships – says Marta Moksa, CEO of O4 Coworking.

 

For the employer, it is also a considerable time saver and an opportunity to get to know the candidate market. Speed dating recruitment is an effective form of hiring. According to O4 Coworking data, 60 per cent. recruitment interviews within the project resulted in employment.

 

Participation in Recruitment Speed Dating is an opportunity for companies and universities to test a new solution, but also to appear in the eyes of potential candidates as a modern place using market tools that are currently in trend.

 

O4 Coworking is the “matchmaker” of this success, but this project would not have been successful if it had not been for universities that want to support their students and help them find their way in the labor market. The partners of the 6th edition are the University of Gdańsk, Gdańsk University of Technology, SWPS University and Merito University.

 

Where did the idea of implementing such a project come from at O4 Coworking?

– O4 Coworking has always been a garden of talents. Both for the Olivia Centre organization (a lot of our wonderful team is now supported by the investor’s team) and for the Olivia Residents. Talents were supposed to come from new technologies and startups, but they were also supposed to come from universities close to us, or in general – from a huge crowd of people using coworking, workshops, conferences. When it came to supporting our powerful corporate neighbors and innovative, agile, flexible O4ians in recruitment, we knew from the beginning that we would not be following the beaten path and, let’s face it, moderately effective. Our strength is building relationships, networking, connecting people in an effective way, in a relaxed atmosphere, with humor. This is how the idea of speed dating preceded – and this is the most important part of this project – by preparatory workshops for students was born. Structured form, professionalism, 1-on-1 conversation, gently stepping out of the comfort zone – it turned out that it works and really builds relationships – says Marta Moksa, CEO of O4 Coworking.

 

A chance for your dream job

This is the first time that the project is aimed at such a wide range of students. Previously, it was implemented in partnership with a specific university. In May, every final year undergraduate and graduate student and graduate student can apply to participate.

 

– Previous editions have allowed us to see that students and graduates entering the job market have a great need to take advantage of workshops that will help them effectively prepare for the recruitment process, and Speed Dating Recruitment allows you to overcome the fear associated with a job interview. We wanted to give this opportunity to as many young people as possible. Hence, Start in Pomerania – a project that allows you to get a good start on the job market – says Martyna Czarnobaj-Borowska, project manager at O4 Coworking.

 

Who are employers?

To participate from employers Companies that are residents of Olivia Centre are invited. The industries are diverse: from IT, through HR, finance and banking, to logistics. Among the employers of the previous editions there were companies such as: Acaisoft, Amazon, AMS, Arrow Electronics, Bayer Sp. z o.o., Develocraft, FUJIFILM Europe, infoShare Academy, Invest in Pomerania, Lyreco Group Polska, ManPowerGroup , Nørd HR, Nordea, Olivia Centre, PKO Bank Polish, PredictX, Randstad, Ricoh Europe, Santander, Sawa Logistics Sp. z o.o., SoftServe, Sii Poland, TELUS International, Thyssenkrupp, Winning Moves Polska, Xceedance Poland, ZR Trade GmbH.

 

– I am very happy that we were able to join the event. It is also a very interesting experience for us as employers. It is great to observe young people who are determined to gain their first professional experience. In such a short time, they are able to build a good impression, make people interested in themselves and their competences. The speed dating itself was organized in a professional way, and the pizza at the end was a great culmination of a busy afternoon – says

Alicja Sawicka

 from Sii Poland.

 

– I wish I had the opportunity to do so 14 years ago, when I was entering the job market. Six minutes multiplied by the number of companies gives a huge dose of information about the market, which sooner or later will turn into a full-time job, and thus the development of each of the participants – adds Kamil Parafiniuk from Develocraft.

Who are the candidates?

Participants of previous editions rated the project as an enriching experience. Many pointed out that participating in it allowed them to tame the stress associated with the job interview and get to know their strengths as a candidate applying for a job.

 

– At first, I wondered if it was worth going to the workshops. Now, I can confidently say that this is the best student event I’ve ever been to. I learned how to write an attractive CV, how to perform well in a job interview and gained my first contacts. However, the most important thing for me was to overcome my fear of talking to my future employer and see that it is not as scary as it seems. Highly recommended – says Kuba Węgrzynek, a student at the University of Gdańsk, a participant of the previous edition of the project.

 

The 6th edition of the project is open to students of the last years of bachelor’s and master’s studies as well as graduates of Pomeranian universities. Applications are made online via the application form and participation is completely free of charge.

Easier to and from Olivia!

Posted on by Katarzyna Halicka

Do you travel by car (but we still encourage you to commute by public transport or bicycle)? We have some useful and good information for you.

 

To make it easier for you to get in and out of Olivia, to reduce car, bicycle and pedestrian congestion during rush hours, and thus save time and fuel as drivers, we have decided on a few practical solutions that will accompany us from May 15th!

 

EASIER TO OLIVIA

  • There is already a roundabout next to Olivia Prime A, thanks to which you will be able to turn around safer , easier and smoother.
  • We have provided two-way traffic at Olivia Prime A – not only will you be able to leave the car parks in Olivia Six and Olivia Prime, but you will also be able to easily reach them.
  • During peak hours, you will save a few minutes, entering the Olivia Centre, the so-called ‘bypass’. Drivers from Gdansk are advised to skip the exit to our city centre (the one with the lights) and turn back at the first permitted place.

 

EASIER WITH OLIVIA

If you leave Olivia at critical hours (3:00 p.m., 4:00 p.m ., 5:00 p.m.), use our “ring road”.

  • You will avoid a “longer stop” at the main exit from Olivia.
  • And you will immediately turn to Gdynia without having to turn back.

 

REMEMBER!

There are special rules of the road in Olivia, which is indicated by the “residential zone” signs . That means m.in. that:

  • the pedestrian has the right of way over the vehicle and does not have to use the sidewalk or pedestrian path,
  • the permissible speed of the vehicle in the residential zone is 20 km/h,
  • a child up to 7 years of age may use the road without the supervision of an elderly person,
  • Leaving the residential zone onto the road is treated as joining the traffic.

THIS WILL BE USEFUL TO YOU

Olivia is always on a roll

Posted on by Katarzyna Halicka

Olivia Centre is an example of a business centre that goes far beyond the traditional approach to the customer. With a strong focus on innovation and flexibility, this dynamic workspace offers not only offices, but also an entire ecosystem that fosters business growth and success. At a time when competition in the job market is increasingly fierce, finding a way to motivate employees and keep them engaged has become extremely important to the success of an organization. Olivia Centre offers a range of sports and artistic activities, in which an increasing number of residents of the centre take part every year. The location of Olivia Centre on the Baltic Sea provides not only a wonderful view, but also a unique offer of cruises on the Bay of Gdańsk, dedicated to all members of the Olivia Centre community.

 

Olivia Yacht Club , as this is the name of the initiative, brings together not only experienced sailors, but also people who want to start their adventure with the sea in this way. You don’t have to be an employee of the Olivia Centre company to take part in the cruise, the organizers have also provided a pool of places for people without resident status. Cruises depart every Wednesday afternoon, usually from Marina Sopot. A place on the boat can be booked in the My Olivia app or on the oliviacentre.com website.

 

Beautiful views from the high floors of my office are not the only benefit of Olivia’s seaside location. All Residents can easily join the cruises on the Bay of Gdansk, individually or even with the whole team, or you can invite a loved one. Taking part in the cruise does not require any complicated preparations, you book a place, pay an attractive price, and then set off on an adventure from the port of Sopot. I recommend it to anyone who likes the sun on their face, wind in their hair and rocking on the sea waves. ­– says Maciej Zielonka, Function developing engineer at Sii Poland.

 

There are more satisfied sailors like Maciej Zielonka. Qualitative research conducted among Residents (employees of companies in Olivia Centre) at the end of 2022 indicates that attendance in offices is increasing on sports activity days. Despite the fact that hybrid work has recently gained in importance, we recorded 45% higher attendance in our buildings than in 2021 and the highest number of events in history organized at the Olivia Centre. This would not have been possible without Olivia’s community.
