CapitaLand’s Bridge+ at the Central Business District (CBD) caters to the needs of the finance and technology (fintech) sector by offering “purpose driven” workspace solutions aimed at enhancing “connectivity and productivity”.
Occupying three levels and 56,000 sq ft space at 79 Robinson Road – which is a 29-storey Grade A office building jointly developed by CapitaLand, Tokyo Tatemono Co., Ltd. and Mitsui & Co., Ltd. – the Bridge+ will also facilitate collaborations via knowledge sharing events and networking activities to support the growth of fintech players, reported Singapore Business Review (SBR).
It follows the Bridge+ flagship co-working centre within the Ascent building at Singapore Science Park 1.
Bridge+ had partnered with key ecosystem players in Singapore like the Singapore FinTech Association, the Asian Institute of Digital Finance and ASEAN Financial Innovation Network.
“We envision 79 Robinson Road to be a destination in the Singapore Central Business District (CBD), where leading members of the international finance and technology communities can gather regularly to confer and collaborate as a community,” said Chew Peet Mun, CapitaLand Singapore Managing Director of Workspace and Residential.
“Our flexible workspace solutions and amenities by Bridge+ 79 Robinson Road provided the apt infrastructure and services to accommodate such needs,” he added as quoted by SBR.
Specifically, its event spaces can host activities for 30 to 200 persons as well as 25 meeting rooms. These spaces also come with social areas and a lounge.
The event spaces on Level 2 offers the infrastructure for organisers holding hybrid events, like technology solutions and equipment to engage both remote and in-person attendees.
To ensure the “safety and wellbeing” of its occupiers, safety measures have been introduced at the workspace, such as coating high contact areas with anti-microbial disinfectant and offering contactless access to reduce unnecessary touchpoints via facial recognition as well as mobile-app activated access to building access points.
Chew noted that the international community could also tap into the Bridge+ network as a platform to collaborate and connect with members of the CapitaLand workspace communities and local partners via hackathons, seminars, industry gatherings, lab crawls and exhibitions at the centre’s event spaces.
“CapitaLand will use Bridge+ as a platform to provide customer-centric workplace solutions and to enhance the building amenities we provide in Singapore, China, and India as we recognise that the global workforce becomes more mobile and demand for flexible workspace services,” said Chew.
