SONICA announce plans to redefine a space in Skerries Point; specifically aimed at FDI.

The company has released plans that would see job creation boosted in the vicinity with the creation of a 125 seated Incubator-Style office with adjoining conference & events facility.

Award winning multi-national construction company, SONICA has announced plans to expand their corporate footprint into a 30,000 sq ft space in Skerries Point, Dublin. The ambitious move will see the company head-quartered within the complex while maintaining the adjoining space for an innovative “First Landings” land and expand model for new Clients.

The concept of First Landings is a wholly bespoke incubator space for new Foreign Direct Investment Clients entering the Irish market. It is a location for these Clients to work, interview, hire and grow from.

SONICA will offer rent-free periods for incoming Clients and give them full access to SONICA’s design, agency, legal and construction staff.

A member of the American Chamber of Commerce, SONICA plans to leverage existing and new relationships to ensure businesses arriving in Ireland can avail of a conveniently-located, state-of-the-art hub near Dublin Airport in which to base their operations.

As part of the model, the SONICA Team will work with these businesses to coach them through their growth plans until they are ready to move out of the ‘First Landings’ incubator space and into their own offices.

Donnacha Neary has described the move by saying “it means we can still remain competitive in the traditional fit out landscape, while growing our operation and providing a more comprehensive, end-to-end service for new SONICA clients”.

The “First Landings” service will not only produce industry leading space plans and engineering performance specifications but also the most up-to-date market relevant advice on Building selection, Lease negotiation, CAPEX forecasting, migration management, let strategy derivation, asset registry collation, supply chain selection, supplier framework initiation, Collateral Warranty formulation and maintenance scheduling over the entire Lease Term.

The space at first floor level will provide for hub and spoke space with associated meeting rooms, display areas, reception and staff canteen area.

A 125 seat auditorium and reception area is proposed at ground floor level which is to be used primarily for staff events, launches and conferences. This space will also be used for “Open Door” events where members of the public and the business community can attend SONICA hosted talks, conferences or social events.

It is expected that the proposed development will attract more retail and commercial uses to the area, which SONICA believe will result in massive economic gains for the local area and represents an opportunity to provide for significant employment for the locale.
