Our new riverside office in Lisbon
In June 2023, we moved into our new office space at Heden Santa Apolónia. Located by the River Tagus, it has a view of the other bank on one side and of the stunning National Pantheon on the other.
But first, the boxes...
Heden is the first coworking space in Portugal with the B-Corp certification, which was an important factor to us when choosing the office as sustainability is also important to us at HiJiffy. Heden work towards six key principles that encompass ecological, economic and social aspects:
- central location
- renewable energy
- green design and construction
- conscious financing
- inclusivity and equality
- cultural programming
And on top of all that, the office space in Santa Apolónia is just beautiful! Full of natural light and plants, the environment is both relaxing and energising.
We have our private office space and access to meeting rooms and call booths. If you want a change of scenery, you can also work from the common space. The balcony with the view of the river is one of our favourite spots - perfect for a coffee break or a drink after work (and Heden organises a happy hour every couple weeks!). And yes, there's a ping-pong table too! 🏓
We are a remote team, but having an office available to everyone in the team is an option that we all appreciate. It's great for team meetings, when you want to work from a different space for a day, or when you feel like seeing some familiar faces and hanging out with the team.
In July, we had our quarterly meeting in Lisbon, which was a perfect opportunity to make some shared memories as a team in our new space. Now feel right at home! 😎
