A Guide to Opening an Office in Shoreditch

Compare the whole flexible workspace market in Shoreditch here

Shoreditch has had an interesting past; once known as an area of vice and poverty, it also provided a theatre and entertainment scene that rivalled that of the West End.

During the Industrial Revolution, many of its buildings were built for the purpose of the textile industry; however, the whole area went into decline following the collapse of that industry, the Blitz and the Second World War.

Opening an Office in Shoreditch

Since the mid-1990s, though, Shoreditch and the areas of Old Street, Hackney, Hoxton and Spitalfields have seen a real resurgence. The area is popular, fashionable and lively, and particularly associated with the cultural and creative industries.

The energetic area has a plethora of galleries, artisanal coffee shops, cafes, food markets, restaurants as well as a bar and club scene that, once again, is rivalling that of the West End.

The area is popular with tech companies, too, with a concentration of high-tech occupiers around Old Street Roundabout which has now been dubbed, ‘Silicon Roundabout.’

There is a wide range of serviced offices to rent in Shoreditch in both converted industrial buildings as well as modern purpose-built options. There is also a wide range of coworking options for startups and managed office spaces or larger occupiers.
