Cornerstone extends lease at Cracow’s High5ive complex

Cornerstone OnDemand Inc., has announced its decision to extend its lease at the High5ive office complex in Cracow. The company will continue occupying over 1,500 square meters of space, reinforcing its commitment to maintaining a high-quality work environment for its employees. The lease renegotiation process was facilitated by Walter Herz, which provided comprehensive advisory support.

“We decided to extend our lease because High5ive offers a high standard in every aspect and ensures a comfortable work environment, which is crucial for attracting and motivating our employees,” said Anna Krasińska, Senior Regional Facilities Manager at Cornerstone. “The complex is environmentally friendly and supports user well-being, fostering collaboration and strengthening team connections. Additionally, its central location in Cracow allows for easy commuting and access to a wide range of services.”

Walter Herz played a key role in optimizing the lease terms to align with Cornerstone’s evolving workplace strategy. “Our role was to support Cornerstone in renegotiating the business terms of the contract, including space optimization,” said Kamil Kowalewski, Associate Director at Walter Herz. “Following a market analysis and negotiations with the landlord, we successfully reached an agreement on lease duration and terms. With the shift to a hybrid work model, the company’s space requirements changed, leading to a more efficient use of space and a reduction to a single floor in the building.”

Developed by Skanska, High5ive is a centrally located office complex consisting of five eco-friendly buildings that collectively offer approximately 70,000 square meters of workspace. The complex stands out for its modern architectural design, sustainability features, and a range of amenities tailored to support tenants’ well-being.

Situated near Cracow’s main attractions, High5ive provides tenants with concierge services, green spaces, a public basketball court, and convenient access to shops and restaurants. It also boasts extensive infrastructure for cyclists, including bike racks, charging stations, showers, lockers, and repair stations.

The project’s proximity to prestigious universities and Cracow’s Old Town Market Square offers tenants a rich cultural and recreational experience. Efficient transport connections ensure easy access to other parts of the city, while Kraków Airport in Balice is just a 25-minute drive away.

With this lease extension, Cornerstone reaffirms its commitment to providing a high-quality, sustainable workspace for its employees while benefiting from the advantages of one of Cracow’s premier office locations.
