The share of renegotiations of lease contracts on the Czech office market is increasing, currently hovering at around 50% of all concluded transactions. A growing number of companies are preferably extending their existing lease rather than moving to new premises after their lease expiry, reports Colliers. 

The international automotive supplier Brose has leased the entire Hall D of the Ostrava Airport Multimodal Park (OAMP) near Leoš Janáček Airport in Mošnov in the ongoing Phase II construction developed by Concens Investments.

Based on the valid building permit, the developer Concens Investments has commenced construction of Phase III of the Ostrava Airport Multimodal Park at Leoš Janáček Airport in Ostrava Mošnov. The BMW Group will use these buildings as an overseas logistics centre. 

Companies in regional cities in the Czech Republic have been facing an increasing challenge in finding quality office space, reports the Regional Research Forum. H2 2024 data for Brno and Ostrava shows that a shortage of office space is thus creating pressure on the market and tenants.

The Czech office market is facing historically low supply, especially in premium locations where new office construction has slowed down significantly. CTP is responding to these needs through its Clubco network of coworking centres. 

The development group Antracit, part of the investment holding Purposia Group, is starting construction of the mixed-use project Václav in the historic centre of Ostrava. 

CTP is launching a new project at its T-Park technology campus in Ostrava, Czech Republic. The mixed-use T6 building will create a space that connects the scientific community, innovative start-ups, established companies and students.

The Kampus Palace student housing project in the former Palace Hotel in the centre of Ostrava is being taken over by Purposia Group, an investment group with Czech roots, through its subsidiary development company Antracit, which is co-managed by former Ostrava mayor Tomáš Macura, reports E15.cz.
