The delivery is scheduled for march 2020.

We offer our tenants a high degree of flexibility to respond to all work approaches. Our aim is to expand opportunities in a dedicated environment enhanced by the opportunities of an internationally renowned business district, “said Sharon Raingold, Executive Director of GCI.
