Are you based in Ibadan? Are you planning a working visit to the ancient city soon? Do you need a conducive, serene and secured place to do some brain work? Is your company looking for an office space without having to pay through your nose?
If your answers to the above questions are yes, then theBUNKer has got you covered, as Resource Intermediaries Limited (RIL), a human resource management company, opens the 4th branch of the theBUNKer in Ibadan, the capital city of Oyo State.
theBUNKer, according to the brains behind the lofty idea, is not just a co-work place, but also a workstation for start-up businesses in highbrow commercial area.
Speaking at a brief media parley shortly before the official opening of the place the other week, Chairman, RIL, Dr Ebun Bamgboye said the idea was conceived to address the problem of rising demands for entrepreneurs, learners and researchers to fulfil their career obligations using a standard office platform in a commercially sophisticated setting without outright sourcing of office complex from firms.
This, he said, would help in addressing the quest for office space in a competitive business hub.
“In recent years, there has been a significant shift in the nature of how we work and interact, with open and more relaxed work spaces emerging. That trend has accelerated in the last 12 months as businesses are increasingly open to flexible work options for their staff.
“This disruption of work and the unavailability of large funds to rent an office in a commercial area has led to the increasing demand for c-work spaces by start up entrepreneurs, freelancers and remote employees. This supply gap of affordable functional workspaces is heightened by the absences of sufficient libraries and a serene atmosphere for study and research in strategic locations all over the country but moreso in commercial city centers.
“theBunker, a business solution hub was conceived out of the rising demands to satisfy entrepreneurs careerpreneurs, freelancers, professionals and students in their basic demands
“Facilities provided include convenient workspaces, fully serviced private offices, training rooms, meeting rooms, virtual office plans, in-house cafe, nap room, outdoor terrace, high quality print services, WiFi Access etc.,” he said.
In his own remarks, the MD/CEO of RIL, Olusoji Oyawoye, while speaking on sustainability of standard that the company has set and maintenance of facilities in place, stated that the company won’t compromise on quality services and the high standard.
“This is the fourth of this facility, the first one is three years old. It has not become profitable yet. And we had opened three others. That is not what a businessman does. If you go to the first one, three years after, it is exactly as this new one. theBUNKer Abuja, theBUNKer Lekki and theBUNKer Yaba are all the same. The focus for us is not profit now. We are building business to outlive us. When we are gone, they will still remain. When you do that, then maintainance is key. But a typical businessman won’t think that way.”
