Office space
Letting policy
To assist in the development, growth and graduation of new businesses, Centre tenancies are limited to a maximum of two years. Typically, this will be sufficient time to establish the business, develop skills, and implement appropriate operational procedures. Tenants are not locked into a traditional lease, but are offered a flexible, low-cost licence. The ECUBIC operates to assist new and small businesses grow and develop rather than just providing subsidised office rental.
Application process
Prospective tenants first complete an 'Application for Office Space' form which provides the essential contact, background and reference information. Once approved, the Parties enter a 'Tenancy Licence Agreement'.
Office space for rent
The ECUBIC has 24, 15 square-metre units, one, 40 square-metre unit, one, 24 square-metre unit and three, 30 square-metre units available. Each unit is individually air-conditioned and has data and telecommunications points installed.
Rental payments
Payments are made in advance and are due on the first day of every month via a direct debit authority.
Utilities
All utilities are included in the licence fee.
Security
The security at the ECUBIC is our utmost concern. The ECUBIC is fully alarmed, monitored and serviced by a local security company.

Parking
Extensive tenant and visitor parking is provided on site free of charge.
Phone and data access
Each office suite is fully cabled with four phone/data sockets linked to a central control panel. This delivers total flexibility to connect and transfer tenant lines from and to any office. Each tenancy will need to organise individual connection with a preferred telecommunication provider. Broadband Internet is provided to each office, with wireless Internet available throughout the building. The costs of the Internet are included in the Licence Fee.
Training room
The Centre offers a fully-equipped training and seminar room available to both tenants and non-tenants, which is booked through reception. Seating within these rooms is flexible to accommodate training sessions, professional meetings and seminars. Crockery, cutlery and kitchenette facilities are available as well as amenities such as showers, toilets and facilities for people with special needs.
