The Imagine office complex has been recognized with the global WiredScore certification, awarded to the world’s best-in-class technologically advanced buildings in terms of digital connectivity, quality of telecommunications solutions as well as contingency planning. The Łódź-based office building, which was developed and is managed by Avestus Real Estate, has been awarded this prestigious certificate at the Gold level.
WiredScore certification is awarded by an international organization of the same name; the organization defines and certifies the quality of digital connectivity and smart technologies in office and residential buildings. WiredScore was founded in 2013 with an endorsement from New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg to improve the city’s broadband infrastructure. Since its inception, over 75 million sqm of commercial and residential space has committed to WiredScore certification, impacting 8 million people all over the globe.
“When we started developing Imagine, already at the design stage we assumed a high level of digital connectivity, including technology which meets the ever-evolving demands of the occupiers. That is why our assets can grow sustainably, keeping the highest standards at all times. We are proud of being awarded the prestigious WiredScore Gold certificate. We are thus confident that choosing advanced technological solutions was the right move. Our tenants, who use our infrastructure daily, are the best confirmation of the high quality of digital connectivity offered by our complex. They include blue-chip tech and IT companies relying on impeccable solutions,” said Andrzej Borówka, Head of Property Management at Avestus Real Estate in Poland.
