Riverside International School has successfully acquired the Olympus Corporation HQ in Prague 6, marking a significant repurposing of prime administrative space into educational infrastructure.


iO Partners acted as the lead consultancy, managing a multi-disciplinary mandate that integrated investment disposal, leasing, and project management.

The transaction facilitates a strategic transition for Olympus, which is scheduled to relocate to new premises in 2027. Following the handover, Riverside International School intends to undertake a comprehensive reconstruction of the site. The facility will be converted into a dedicated campus for its junior and senior high school departments, providing a modernised environment for its international student body.

iO Partners' investment team secured the buyer and managed the disposal, while the office leasing team identified the future HQ for Olympus to ensure operational continuity. Furthermore, the project development & services division will oversee the design, cost, and project management of the 2027 relocation.
