eOffice - Revolutionary design-led offices offer new dimension to flexible working in the City

A new name in innovative design-led serviced offices is being launched next week (7 June) in Central Birmingham. With its prime city location on Smallbrook Queensway and a stone’s throw away from New Street Station, eOffice Birmingham is set to new standards in flexible working environments.
Founded by entrepreneur, Pier Paolo Mucelli, eOffice offers contemporary offices, meeting and conference spaces, equipped with state-of-the-art technology; all available on flexible terms. The unique 10,000 sq ft workspace is modelled around the three key elements of design, technology and people, and is targeted towards entrepreneurial individuals, start-ups and SMEs as well as national or even international companies requiring a Birmingham presence, without the usual overheads associated with grade A commercial property.
The innovative workplaces will have a profound effect on organisational culture and individual performance. Design is strongly connected to business success, with clear evidence that Britain's most successful companies are using design to fuel growth; a Design Council study found a group of companies recognised as effective users of design outperformed key FTSE indices by 200%. The same research showed that 90% of businesses which are growing rapidly say design is integral, whereas, only 26% of static companies say the same.
eOffice has collaborated with leading IT, furniture and interior design specialists to create a stimulating, attractive and sociable working environment which result in mini 'business districts' under one roof. The space consists of a number of self-contained small offices, as well as a spacious open plan area. 'Breakout' spaces are available and members can enjoy a coffee while connecting to the WiFi network, or simply browse through the selection of lifestyle magazines and design books. Indeed, the eOffice reception area looks more like a boutique hotel lobby than an office.
Growth in technology has dramatically changed the way that business is done in the 21st century with the internet as the obvious example of technology enablement. The current emerging technologies associated with wireless and mobile communications means that a swathe of products and services will become web enabled, and now that workers are increasingly mobile, high speed internet access, video conferencing and IT support are essential.
eOffice has selected a solution from the hotel industry, enabling members to instantly 'plug and work' offering wireless connectivity throughout and even wireless printing. There's a choice of meeting rooms - all with plasma screens - ranging from those suitable for a one-to-one interview, to an 88 seat theatre-style conference facility with the latest audio-visual system.
The eOffice open plan workspace allows for vital interaction, creating both valuable business and social contacts - not possible for either homeworkers or those occupying conventional office space - and a dedicated monthly member event 'Net Thursday' and community portal myoffice.net provide further opportunities for networking, sharing of information and ideas.
Apart from full-time serviced office space the business centre offers hot-desking facilities and virtual office – which provides a prestigious B5 postal address, mail handling and dedicated telephone answering and message forwarding service - allowing professional back up even whilst on the road.
Founder and CEO Pier Paolo Mucelli commented: “The Birmingham eOffice concept is innovative, adaptive and forward thinking, appealing to the diverse SME market - particularly the creative and high-tech industries. The City was the obvious place to launch the eOffice concept in light of the substantial and positive shift in the cultural ground influencing how workspace is designed. Offices of the future will be entirely different to the places where we work today and we want to be part of the fast growth service industry.”
