  • Sustainable office space for global headquarters in Baden

    Sustainable office space for global headquarters in Baden

    Colliers Switzerland has leased 1530 square metres of office space on the fifth floor of Konnex Baden to the Harting Technology Group. According to a press release, the new global headquarters of the provider of industrial connection technology is to be built there and will start operations in October 2025.

    Harting has its headquarters in Eskelkamp in North Rhine-Westphalia and its Swiss headquarters in Volketswil ZH. Harting connection technology is used in the transmission of data and electricity in areas such as transport, electromobility, renewable energy generation, automation and mechanical engineering, according to the press release. From the new central office, top managers with supra-regional operations will take over the global management of the company. Harting’s decision to move to Konnex was influenced by the high sustainability standards at Konnex, among other factors.

    An innovative city-within-a-city concept is to be realised in Konnex, with a range of services and amenities, including restaurants, shops for everyday needs, fitness, childcare and co-working. The Konnex building is located in the city centre, just a five-minute walk from Baden railway station and 20 minutes from Zurich.

    Colliers Switzerland, based in Zollikon, previously traded as SPGI Zurich AG. The property management company is a subsidiary of the Intercity Group.

  • Further development of the YOND Campus on the Albis site

    Further development of the YOND Campus on the Albis site

    The planned expansion of the YOND Campus to include the YOND.02/03 buildings with a total usable area of around 31,000 m2 takes up the concept of YOND.01 and adapts it more specifically to the requirements of manufacturing companies. The focus is on providing robust and efficient buildings, flexibility through large, divisible areas and optimised logistics. These adaptations include efficient delivery, loading ramps, a logistics-friendly basement and advanced vertical access to the building. In addition, mezzanine floors made of wood enable flexible use of space that can be adapted to the individual needs of the companies.

    At the same time, the historic laboratory and workshop building at 203 Albisriederstrasse is being converted into a centre for small and creative businesses. The planned renovation and extension of one floor are aimed at preserving the history of the site and creating a workspace for the creative industries. The transformation of the boiler house into a vertical garden and the establishment of a bistro on the ground floor emphasise the ambition to create a campus that harmoniously combines quality of life and the world of work.

    The publicly accessible catering facilities along Albisriederstrasse and in the adjacent park will establish the site as an attractive location for businesses and visitors. The use of the ground floor will position the YOND Campus as a place for socialising and contribute to the activation of the space. This extension will create a forward-looking space that supports both the dynamic requirements of modern companies and the need for social interaction and creativity.
