Sanezoo, a successful company focused on robotics and visual quality control, has moved its activities from the nearby Bochner Palace to Building D in Vlněna. On an area of ​​451 m², it will create a new facility for its unique technologies that combine cutting-edge hardware with artificial intelligence. “Our expansion in Vlněna will allow us to expand our research and testing capacities and at the same time be part of a dynamic technological environment. Thanks to the spatial flexibility of Vlněna and CTP, we have installed robotic arms in the new premises, which are essential for improving our products,” says Vladimír Horák, a representative of Sanezoo.

Next to them, Avenga, a global technology and consulting company with European roots, has settled in Building B. Their team of hundreds of experts works for clients all over the world, and the new offices, covering an area of ​​987 m², will offer top conditions for further growth. “The decision to go to Vlněna was a logical step given its location, the high standard of the buildings and the opportunities it offers for our employees,” explains Petr Štros, CEO of Avenga Czechia.

Another new addition is Lifeliqe, a company that streamlines education using virtual reality. Their realistic VR simulations are changing the way students and employees are trained around the world. In the AB building, on the 6th floor, they will not only develop new products on 478 m², but also actively cooperate with the Vlněna business community. “Moving to Vlněna will allow us to be at the center of events, organize our own events and test innovations together with other companies. Our corporate culture is built on the principles of open management with a flat management structure that emphasizes cooperation, trust and self-management without unnecessary hierarchy. Therefore, it is absolutely crucial for us to have a modern environment where we can work in offices that are modern and support our team dynamics,” says Renata Pagáčová, COO of Lifeliqe.

The most modern office building in Central Europe, Building I, will be newly revitalized by Futured Apps, a technology company specializing in mobile application development. With experience from more than 70 projects for brands such as ŠKODA Auto and Decathlon, Futured Apps will create a modern headquarters on 590 m², spread over two floors in Vlněna. "The modern environment of Vlněna and the opportunity to be in the center of Brno's technological events were two crucial factors for us, thanks to which we decided to settle in Vlněna," adds Simona Sádecká, Head of HR Futured Apps.

The new tenants have headed to the area, which has become synonymous with a quality working environment in Brno. All office buildings in Vlněna meet the strictest ecological and technological standards: the ABCD buildings are BREEAM Excellent certified, Building I is currently striving for the highest standards in the field of sustainability

and indoor environment quality, including BREEAM Outstanding, WELL Platinum and WiredScore Platinum. Vlněna offers not only modern spaces, but also a strong community environment thanks to the Clubco coworking center, where clients can organize their own events, trainings and networking activities that connect companies across industries.

“More progressive technology companies have chosen Vlněna as their home, which makes us extremely happy. It is a clear signal for us that our strategy – quality spaces, strong client relationships and a vibrant community – is delivering results,” says Tomáš Strýček, Senior Business Developer at CTP Czech.

The four new companies in Vlněna only confirm that Brno is today one of the most attractive locations for technology companies in the Czech Republic – and rightfully holds the nickname “Czech Silicon Valley”.
