The countdown starts for the launch of Bristol’s new £2.3million business centre

Responding to the demand from small businesses looking for space in the city, BizSpace, the largest provider of flexible workspace with offices and workshops across the UK, is due to open its first ever site in Bristol.

Located at Equinox South, Great Park Road, the building has been fully refurbished to include a range of first-class facilities and services specifically for small businesses.

Attendees to the launch event on Wednesday 17th January will be able to preview the site and network with other like-minded individuals. Food and drinks will be provided and BizSpace will also hold a ‘business card draw’ allowing the lucky winner to win a £100 Red Letter Day experience.

The site comprises 55 offices ranging from 140 – 400 sq. ft., offering 24-hour access, parking facilities and telecoms packages. It is situated next to the M4/M5 interchange and is a 10-minute drive from Bristol Parkway railway station, which runs services to London Paddington. The Mall at Cribbs Causeway is five minutes’ away and Bristol city centre is 20 minutes.

BizSpace’s Commercial Director, Emma Long, commented: “We’re excited to announce the opening of our second new site in the South West after acquiring Discovery Court in Poole, and are looking forward to welcoming a diverse host of the region’s businesses as our new customers.

“Bristol is home to almost 20,000 businesses and ranked 2nd in the Start-up Cities Index 2017. We are thrilled to be providing new flexible workspaces for the growing small business community in and around the city.

“Our focus is very much about making life easier for small businesses and start-ups, and we’ve done everything we can to make the process of taking on that important first business space as easy and fuss-free as possible.

“Equinox South will offer even more companies the opportunity to launch, develop and succeed.”

BizSpace has also announced David Crowley as the site’s new Business Centre Manager.

Nick Smith, BizSpace’s Development Director commented: “A born and bred Bristolian, David has excellent previous experience within the business centre industry. With his positive outgoing approach and strong customer service skills, we are confident that David will ensure the running of Equinox South is a huge success.”
