Knowledge Industry Center 'Triatz' Equipped with Location, Scale, and Marketability

- Polarized Knowledge Industry Center Market, Demanders' Selection Intensifies
- Knowledge Industry Centers with Location, Scale, and Marketability Remain Popular

Until just a few years ago, the knowledge industry center market experienced a boom. This was due to the explosive popularity driven by increased demand from individuals and companies amid a small-scale startup boom, including one-person businesses and startups, combined with relatively deregulated conditions and investment demand through tax benefits.

However, with persistently high interest rates causing continued deterioration in profitability and the easing of apartment regulations, knowledge industry centers, where supply has exceeded demand, are facing difficulties. Moreover, the industry analyzes that competition will become even fiercer as the supply of knowledge industry centers continues to increase steadily.

According to data from the Korea Industrial Complex Corporation’s FactoryOn, the number of approvals and registrations for knowledge industry centers nationwide has been increasing annually, with 1,282 cases in 2021 and 1,464 cases in 2022. Last year also saw an increase of 61 cases from the previous year, totaling 1,528 cases.

Nonetheless, even in this situation, knowledge industry centers that possess various advantages such as location, scale, and product competitiveness through diverse specialized designs are attracting demand. This is because issues such as rising sale prices and the possibility of interest rate declines have led to increased demand to secure knowledge industry centers with high future value.

For example, there is the ‘Triatz’ knowledge industry center being built by the developer Gunpo Bokhap Development PFBV Co., Ltd. in the Gunpo Station area complex development project A-1BL (Dang-dong area). This knowledge industry center is called a 'hexagonal' knowledge industry center, equipped with location, development prospects, product competitiveness, and scale, attracting much attention.

‘Triatz,’ a complex knowledge industry center with a total floor area of approximately 240,000㎡ and consisting of 3 basement floors to a maximum of 28 floors above ground, boasts an excellent location. First, the Gunpo Station area where the complex is located is a representative southwestern metropolitan area business and industrial complex, home to many industrial complexes such as Gunpo Jeil Industrial Complex, one of the largest industrial complexes in the metropolitan area, Gunpo Smart Town, Uiwang Technopark, Anyang IT Valley, Anyang International Distribution Complex, and numerous logistics complexes including Uiwang ICD Terminal 1, the largest metropolitan comprehensive logistics base in East Asia, and Gunpo Complex Logistics Terminal.

Furthermore, the location near Gunpo Station on Line 1 is also noteworthy. Through Gunpo Station nearby, it is possible to reach Gangnam, City Hall, and Yongsan within 40 minutes, Sadang and Guro within 20 minutes, and Suwon in about 14 minutes. Additionally, Geumjeong IC, Gunpo-ro, and the Metropolitan Area 1st Ring Expressway are adjacent.

Moreover, a complex transfer center is planned near Geumjeong Station (Metropolitan Subway Line 1), where the GTX-C line (Yangju~Suwon) of the Metropolitan Area Express Railway will pass, further improving the surrounding transportation environment.

Diverse specialized designs for tenant companies will also be applied. The complex plans office spaces for video and advertising companies and various rest areas where employees and visitors can relax comfortably. Additionally, abundant landscaping is planned to provide a pleasant working environment.

In addition, with many industrial complexes nearby, including Gunpo Jeil Industrial Complex, Gunpo Smart Town, Uiwang Technopark, Anyang IT Valley, and Anyang International Distribution Complex, it is expected to be advantageous for tenant companies’ business exchanges and network building.

Meanwhile, the model house for ‘Triatz’ is located in the Dang-dong area of Gunpo-si, Gyeonggi-do.
