Strathclyde’s Citibase SME incubator hub expands to meet ‘phenomenal demand’

In a boost to the Strathclyde economy, a fully serviced business centre in the heart of Scotland’s Central Belt has nearly doubled in size just over ten months after it first opened.

Citibase Strathclyde Business Park welcomed its first customers at in New Alderston House near Bellshill last summer and rapidly filled up with businesses ranging from those specialising in renewable energy, telecoms, video production, construction and travel management, to an occupational therapist and even a private detective amongst others.

The hib now says that due to the “phenomenal demand”, the centre is expanding onto the first floor which is being fully refurbished to provide additional space as a state-of-the-art and cost-effective base for entrepreneurs, start-ups and businesses both small and large.



Fully furnished suites will be available to move in from early July, with various sizes from one person to much larger spaces making it ideal for businesses at every level of their development.

Centre Manager Euan Stuart said: “We’re delighted that we’ve quickly established ourselves as a vibrant part of the Strathclyde business community. Our success in providing what the local economy needs – cost effective and flexible fully serviced office space – has enabled us to have the confidence to significantly expand to meet the demand. By offering a welcoming and hassle-free home to over 100 extra entrepreneurs and businesses, it will also greatly benefit other established firms in the locality and the area’s economy.”

As with Citibase’s other business centres throughout the UK, the newly refurbished Citibase Strathclyde Business Park offers flexible short term and affordable contracts, which will appeal to those who are often deterred by long term office leases.
