The 50% pre-booked 9000+ seat centre will be operational in the final quarter of 2022.

Vaishnavi Tech Park, a Grade A multi-functional IT and Business Park, is strategically located next to the IT corridor- Outer Ring Road (ORR), has excellent connectivity and is close to well-known and reputable MNCs. The state-of-the-art managed office space, which is split into two office blocks: North and South, offers several appealing amenities, including a sizable cafeteria, plenty of parking, a food court, manicured gardens, a sports arena, and recreation facilities.

VTP is Smartworks’ third location in the ORR region and ninth overall in Bengaluru.

These workspaces feature cutting-edge amenities, services, and industry-leading collaborations in a campus-like setting.

On the announcement, Neetish Sarda, Founder, Smartworks, said, “In keeping with our mission to provide the greatest workspaces and experiences in large-format, fully managed spaces, VTP represents a new milestone for us. We broke our record for leasing large independent flex spaces to enable a holistic office experience, increasing from 6.4 lakh square feet last year in Pune to this newest centre in one of the largest office markets in India. As part of the return-to-work plan, enterprises are introducing new work patterns and looking to other markets for talent, which has led to a significant increase in demand for our product. Given our large office spaces, we are well-positioned to meet the scalability requirements of clients quickly across markets,” he added.
