The businesses are Raise the Roof, an independent television company, and Digirati, a digital enterprise consultancy. Each has new offices at The Hub development at Pacific Quay in the Clyde district. The Hub was built to attract creative industry operators to the relevant parts of Glasgow.
The property consultancy firm CB Richard Ellis (CBRE) acted on behalf of the landlord in the case of Raise the Roof, agreeing to take up 1,373 sq ft of space at the site and Digirati signing up for 1,747 sq ft of serviced offices.
“The Hub is a great space to base your business. We appreciated the flexibility offered when expanding our operation with everything possible done to facilitate a quick and easy move within the building,” said Jane Muirhead, managing director of Raise the Roof.
“The accommodation is light, airy and spacious, and the 24/7 access and security is an added bonus for a company that works within the TV production sector,” she added.
John Baker, managing director at Digirati, meanwhile said: “As we have started to expand our Scottish operations, we wanted to move to a new working environment that was conducive to the innovation and creativity that Digirati has become well known for; The Hub fitted that requirement very well.”
Local CBRE surveyor Alastair Urquhart talked up the potential of The Hub as a space for companies in similar sectors to work closely in quality and well-located serviced offices in Glasgow.
Editor’s notes: As of July 2024, both Raise the Roof and Digirati were still in occupation at The Hub at Pacific Quay.
