A new fit out across two floors in a multi-tenanted landmark tower in the City of London to deliver a modern dynamic space for Liquidnet to occupy and grow into to meet the growing needs of twenty first century fin-tech business. The project comprised the provision of an open plan office environment for the trading environment with a client meeting suite located at one of the building to take advantage of the breath-taking views across the City of London.
Key Project Features
