MEMBER NEWS: HQ expansion for Simblox Technologies Ltd at AM Sci Tech’s Aberdeen Energy Park

IT provider doubles footprint at the Enterprise Centre

AM Sci Tech, a subsidiary of Hurstwood Holdings, the owner of Aberdeen Energy and Innovation Parks, has just concluded an upsizing lease with Simblox.

Simblox, which has been based at the parks for the past ten years, has moved to a larger head office suite in the Enterprise Centre on the Energy Park in Bridge of Don.

The business has agreed to a five-year lease on the ground floor Unit G4, which extends to approximately 900 sq ft, almost doubling their previous space. The new suite can accommodate up to 10 people, allowing for potential future expansion requirements.

Simblox provides IT services across various sectors, including business consulting, construction, finance, energy, engineering, legal and manufacturing, with tailoring solutions to meet each industry’s unique needs.

The company was established in 2005 and has grown steadily over the years, while maintaining a high-quality service. It now employs 14 staff, including a team of home-based engineers and serves a wide range of clients located from Angus to Moray. The focus on customer service has been crucial for business development, reflected by long-term client relationships and impressive growth through referrals.

Pauline Milne, Operations Manager of Simblox, said:

“We are excited to have settled into our new, larger office in the Enterprise Centre. This move is a key milestone for our fast-growing company as we continue to deliver services to our expanding client base.

“The new bespoke office space better accommodates our growing team and offers a modern, open environment with easy access to the city and local amenities. We were keen to remain at the Energy Park and feel optimistic about the future here for Simblox.”

Aberdeen Energy & Innovation Park Estates Manager, Cherry Paton added:

“It is always pleasing to see a long-term occupier grow and develop with us. Simblox is a great example of a dynamic business that is thriving and expanding. We offer a variety of office solutions with very competitive and flexible terms, allowing our occupiers the flexibility to expand as their business develops.”

The Parks are conveniently located approximately three miles north of Aberdeen city centre and close to the Third Don Crossing. Set at the entrance to the Energy Park on Exploration Drive, the Enterprise Centre is Aberdeen Energy Park’s flagship office building, providing the ideal workspace for forward-looking, ambitious businesses.

Knight Frank and Ryden are joint agents for Aberdeen Energy & Innovation Parks.

AREG has played an important role in the growth of Scotland’s renewable energy sector, engaging the supply chain and developing the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. However, we are only at the very beginning of the transition that AREG was established to both lead and support so there are still opportunities for companies to get into the constantly evolving renewables supply chain. We look forward to continuing our work together as renewables builds on its place as Scotland’s main source of power, and as we seek to deliver real change in the crucial areas of heat and transport.

Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce has worked closely with AREG since its formation. The recent progress in the developments of offshore wind projects by Equinor and Vattenfall are as a result of the work of the group over many years. The north-east is known as the oil and gas capital of Europe. At the Chamber, we believe the region must evolve its position to being recognised as the energy capital. Whilst hydrocarbons will continue to be essential in driving our economy for years to come, the generation of renewable resources will play an increasingly important role in providing cost-effective power, innovative development and economic growth.

The enthusiasm and dedication of the early group that would become AREG was fundamental in us choosing to launch All-Energy in Aberdeen. The first tiny show was held in 2001, and AREG’s Chairman at the time, Jeremy Cresswell, played such an active role that I often describe him in terms such as All-Energy’s ‘midwife’. All-Energy is now the UK’s largest renewable and low carbon energy exhibition and conference in terms of number of attendees, space booked, and number of exhibiting companies. As AREG became firmly established, their presence and support for the event grew spectacularly over the years. We thank them most sincerely for their invaluable input.

Vattenfall has forged a strong working relationship with AREG through the development of the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. AREG has worked tirelessly on behalf of the North East and it can take enormous credit for the growth of sustainable energy in the region and the path it has cleared for the region to capture further investment.

Aberdeen City and Shire is emerging as a key location for renewables by successfully transferring its world-class oil and gas expertise into the sector and AREG has done much to advance this through a broad range of initiatives. It has acted as a catalyst in driving further investment in the local economy by engaging with companies, Government, public bodies and existing projects and we have been pleased to support their efforts. Scottish Enterprise will continue to engage with AREG as we increase Scotland’s use of renewable energy.
