Siemens is set to open new offices in Munich's Werksviertel district, a move that aligns with the company's New Work Concept. This concept, which was introduced several years ago, facilitates both in-office and mobile working while reducing floorspace needs. Siemens plans to create an innovative workplace environment using its own advanced sustainability-oriented building technologies.
"The new offices will offer us a great deal of flexibility while providing a modern, forward-looking workplace environment," stated Veronika Bienert, a member of Siemens' Managing Board responsible for Siemens Real Estate. She emphasized the benefits of the location, noting its accessibility via public transport and proximity to other innovative companies and city amenities. Bienert also highlighted that the building supports Siemens' goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2030.
The Werksviertel district, located at Munich's East Station, is one of Bavaria's largest urban development projects. A broad promenade will eventually connect two new office buildings from the southern entrance to the grounds. Designed by Frankfort architecture firm Holger Meyer and constructed by Cologne project developer Pandion, Siemens plans to occupy one of these buildings by late 2027.
Approximately two-thirds of over 6,000 employees currently based at Siemens' Munich-Perlach site will relocate to the new Werksviertel offices. Other teams will be transferred to different locations including the Siemens Technology Center Garching opened in 2024, Siemens Mobility in Allach suburb, and company headquarters in central Munich. "With these four attractive locations, we’ll be strongly positioned in and around Munich and thus offer our people an appealing and flexible workplace environment," added Bienert.
