“We built Building A in 2002 as the third project of BB Centrum. It has served its purpose for 16 years, but technology and trends are changing and now we need to invest in more extensive adjustments. We want to maintain the high standards of BB Centrum permanently, not only through the range of services we offer, but also by maintaining the first-class quality of the previously built office buildings, ” says Radim Passer, founder and CEO of Passerinvest Group .
