CHALLENGE

LaunchIt Ventures is a healthcare-focused venture company based in Hamilton, Ontario that provides support for startups through a unique model which combines funding, entrepreneurship, business acumen and a shared business services model. The company had grown out of their current facility near the downtown core and contacted the Office Occupier team for assistance because of our focus on the life sciences sector and experience in Office Occupier services.

SOLUTION

Our team’s experience in the Hamilton commercial real estate market enabled us to quickly identify a long-list of potential options. A short list of sites was quickly toured and it quickly became clear that one option originally discounted due to location but included for comparison purposes quickly became the preferred focus for consideration.

RESULTS

LaunchIt Ventures was able to significantly upgrade the quality of their office space and negotiate a longterm lease at below-market rates.
