Scott opens new headquarters
After a construction period of three years, Scott recently opened its new headquarters in Givisiez, Fribourg. The new global headquarters will be home to all Scott departments, including the Bike, Winter, Moto and Running divisions. It will also serve as an organizational hub for Scott's other brands: Syncros, Bergamont, Bold Cycles, Avanti, Malvern Star, Dolomite, Powderhorn, Bach, Lizard and Outdoor Research.
Thanks to the collaboration with companies such as Kvadrat DK and Price Industries, Scott's new head office is the first in Europe to use a system for the simultaneous control of heating, ventilation and acoustics. Sustainable energy supply and resource-saving heating through geothermal energy, solar technology and district heating underline the sustainable character of the overall concept. This concept is framed by clear architecture and a combination of timeless materials such as wood, concrete, glass and metal. The new headquarters will provide the perfect platform for Scott's product portfolio and offer space for further growth over the next ten years.
The new Scott headquarters offers space for up to 600 people on seven floors and includes 50 state-of-the-art meeting rooms. The building is also equipped with bicycle garages, fitness rooms and lockers for sporty employees and, according to Scott, represents a pioneering investment in the future growth of the company and its employees. The office space is located on the four upper floors. The open office landscape encourages a lively exchange and development of ideas, while closed areas are intended to promote a more concentrated working atmosphere.Beat Zaugg, CEO Scott Sports, says: "Work culture and today's workplace needs are important to us, we have a strong team culture and projects are driven forward by several departments at the same time. Having all employees in the same building again enables fast, seamless communication and collaboration, a real alternative to working from home."
