Cityspace was founded in 1989 as
a furniture dealership providing service based solutions to European and
North American Blue Chip Multi-Nationals. The organisation grew quickly,
opening offices in the Middle East and Far East, in order to provide a
service to a growing number of clients requiring a single global supplier.
In 1997 Cityspace formed a construction division in order to meet the
growing demands for a single source relocation company offering design,
construction and furniture.
In March 2003 the founder of the construction division purchased the
company, trading history and brand. The company continues to offer an
intelligent
service to organisations wishing to relocate, replan existing space or
lower operating costs.
In parallel, the founder of the
change management division started a consultancy business in 1989.
Having worked as a Chartered Accountant in the City at a large US bank
and a fixed interest asset management house and unit trust manager, the
focus has tended to be on financial services.
As the two founders knew each other well, and there were obvious synergies
in the type of clients and the solutions required, it seemed natural in
March 2003 to put the business activities together. Although operating
in seemingly different areas, both activities involve project management,
on large and small scales. Also the merger of the two business interests
has successfully brought together quality teams to hit targets within
timescales.
