Surely you have noticed, if you follow our activities, that for years we have been consistently expanding the offer of functions friendly to the employees of our center, residents of the Tri-City and tourists. We regularly introduce new services to make your life and work much better. On the premises of Olivia there is a public botanical garden – Olivia Garden, a very popular observation deck (at a height of 130 meters above the ground), 8 restaurants, a medical center and a pharmacy. We also have a kindergarten and a school. There is a beauty salon, an Energa customer service point and a Talent Development Centre. There are also a car wash and a grocery store. Now, our non-business character will also be emphasized in the name, which from May 2022 is Olivia Centre, and it is complemented by the slogan “More than business”.

Olivia Centre, with all its amenities, is increasingly becoming an important part of Gdansk. Over the years of development, 12,000 jobs have been created in our area, to which should be added the employees of co-operating companies. Olivia is home to the offices of over 200 companies, including the world’s largest corporations, such as Amazon, Bayer, Nike and EPAM; medium-sized companies from over a dozen industries, but also small and micro-enterprises, mainly concentrated in the O4 co-working. Olivia’s development policy includes the gradual introduction of new amenities, which make this place an increasingly fashionable location, where it is pleasant to spend time with family and friends not only during the week, but also on weekends. Importantly, the consistently implemented plan of diversifying the functions available in our area allows us to define Olivia Centre as a place not only for business and work, but also for recreation, entertainment and integration.

In 2020, the opening of the observation deck on the 32nd floor of Olivia Star was awarded by the Marshal of the Pomeranian Voivodeship as the event of the year. The status of a place for meetings and non-professional interactions is also confirmed by concerts in the event center, located on the 34th floor of this building. Such stars as Krzysztof Zalewski and Daria Zawiałow, have already performed on Olivia Star’s stage. In Olivia, there are also active clubs for the development of passions (sailing, volleyball, photography, running) and a choir, bringing together employees of companies with offices here and residents of the Tri-City, who are not professionally related to Olivia.

“From the very beginning, Olivia has focused on integration with the city and the development of a lively and active community ,” says Bogusław Wieczorek, Plenipotentiary of the Management Board of Olivia Centre for Urban Development. public relations. We want everyone to feel welcome here. Certainly, the commissioning of Olivia Garden, the observation deck and the restaurant on the top floors of Olivia Star was a milestone in making our space more attractive, but we can assure you that many people will find interesting proposals here on a daily basis, allowing them to feel at home. The slogan “More than business” also emphasizes that the community of employees of companies from Olivia is a collection of wonderful people who combine their strengths and competences to develop their interests. It is also a group of social activists who are actively involved in a number of noble and useful initiatives. During the pandemic, they themselves initiated a collection of computers for children at risk of digital exclusion during the period of remote learning. For years, they have been organizing the Kropelka Energii campaign, which took place last month for the 47th time. They also actively participated in the collection of gifts for Ukrainians in Olivia. During the season, our patio is alive with active events: concerts, chillout zones and other numerous attractions are organized.

Olivia Centre is also an active and engaged neighbour. For 3 years we have been organizing, for example: The Oliwa Neighbourhood Budget, under which we support and finance initiatives that are important to the residents of the Gdańsk Oliwa district (where we operate). We also cooperate with the neighbouring Primary School No. 35 in the organisation of many events and initiatives. During the Covid-19 pandemic, we financed food for hospital employees, medical equipment and protective clothing, as well as two diagnostic centres, which were set up at the hospital in Gdańsk’s Zaspa district and at the campus of the University of Gdańsk.
