“During the last 15 years, this unique project has proven to be a place where people enjoy working. Even during these pandemic times, the utilization rate of the buildings remained high, as CA Immo has obtained the internationally COVID-19 Compliant certification granted by Safe Asset Group and the DEKRA Trusted Facility certification for its entire Romanian portfolio, thus confirming the measures implemented to comply with national and international health and hygiene regulations and protocols. For Bucharest Business Park, 2021 is a year of renewals, including Eli Lilly’ lease extension which is confirming our valuable partnership”, stated Marian Roman, Managing Director of CA Immo Real Estate Management Romania.

The project comprises four high quality office buildings, each of 4/5 floors and within an open composition, providing ca. 27,000 sqm of office space.

excellent visibility from DN1 and with a plenty of green spaces. During the last 10-12 years, the Press Square area has developed around Bucharest Business Park, being today one of the most desired office hubs in the city, with a stock of approximatively 164,000 square meters, representing 5% of the modern office stock in Bucharest. We are happy to support Eli Lilly in this record long-term partnership”, declared Vlad Damian, Head of Investor Leasing, Office, CBRE Romania.
