Market Tech-backed co-working space opens in Camden

Interchange, a new space for entrepreneurs, startups and creatives in the heart of Camden, is launching today following backing from Camden Market-owner, Market Tech Holdings.

The co-working space covers approximately 84,000 sq ft of space, and will offer a range of support and facilities such as an on-site gym, restaurant, bar and event spaces, and importantly will also provide access to affiliate investors and industry specialists.

The venture is backed by Market Tech Holdings, a public company founded by Playtech entrepreneur, Teddy Sagi, who also owns the iconic Camden Markets.

Additionally, startups will have the unique opportunity to establish their own retail space in the markets, which has over 28 million visitors per year and is London’s third largest business district after the City and Westminster.

Vanessa Butz, managing director of Interchange, said: “We have been inspired by the history of the market as a key ‘Interchange’ of commerce and trade and we’re now supporting the future of business in Camden,

“The area has a strong community of creatives, artists and designers, which is another reason why it’s a perfect location for new companies.”

Interchange is spread over three sites; Atrium and Triangle, the primary Interchange locations are based in Camden Markets and will open from the beginning of October 2015.

A further site, Utopia, situated in Primrose Hill, is available now and provides larger office space for growing and established companies.

The interiors of the Camden buildings have been designed by Design Research Studio under the creative direction of Tom Dixon, the acclaimed british designer whose past work includes Shoreditch House and the Mondrian Hotel, London. This is the first time that DRS and Tom Dixon have designed a coworking environment.

Charles Butler, CEO of Market Tech said: “Camden Markets has always been a strong supporter of entrepreneurs, with the variety of traders that make up its eclectic and vast retail area. With the addition of Interchange, we see this as a great opportunity to further support startups and small businesses to realise their potential within this vibrant environment.”
