Concept Heidelberg involves new construction

After just about one year of construction, Concept Heidelberg, Europe's leading provider of continuing education and information services in the field of pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical production and quality assurance, has completed and moved into its expansion building at the Heidelberg site. This provides the company with an additional approximately 800 square meters of office space, totaling around 2,000 square meters.

Concept Heidelberg has been present at the Heidelberg location since 1978 and had already expanded its office building in Wieblingen in 2003. The new expansion was intended to accommodate the company's further growth, which today employs 40 staff members, including pharmacists, chemists/biochemists, and microbiologists. Even during the Covid-19 pandemic, the company was able to significantly expand its business within just two years by developing a comprehensive online seminar and conference program. In addition to the "on-site" events in ten European countries, this online event business has now established itself as the company's second mainstay.

As in the existing building, where the offices are continuously modernized, the new building focuses on a contemporary, bright working environment. Accordingly, the new air-conditioned offices and additional rooms were designed with glass and wood. Additionally, the attic of the new building offers a lounge with plenty of space for breaks, personal meetings, or small group discussions. With the expansion, Concept Heidelberg also reduces its increasing energy consumption. A new photovoltaic system with a capacity of 10.2 kWp supplies power to both the building and the charging stations for electric and hybrid vehicles.
