Bigbank, one of the leading financial institutions in the region, has signed a lease agreement for 920 m² of office space in Novira Plaza, the newly built A-class office complex in the center of Riga. The bank’s Latvian branch will relocate in October 2025, bringing together over 100 employees on the 5th floor of the building, which offers breathtaking views of the very heart of Riga city.

The move to Novira Plaza aligns with Bigbank’s strategic goals to enhance accessibility for clients and employees while reinforcing its presence in the capital’s dynamic business district. The LEED Gold-certified office complex provides a sustainable, modern, and innovative work environment, hosting a strong mix of international and local companies that foster collaboration and synergy.

"Our decision to move to Novira Plaza reflects our commitment to growth, innovation, and accessibility. Being located in the city center allows us to better serve our clients while providing our employees with a top-tier work environment," says Edgars Surgofts, Head of Latvian Branch at Bigbank.

Novira Plaza, developed by Evernord Asset Management, has quickly established itself as one of Riga’s most sought-after office buildings. The building’s energy-efficient design, premium location, and high-quality tenant mix make it an attractive choice for companies looking for modern, representative office spaces.

"We are delighted to welcome Bigbank to Novira Plaza. Their strong and well-established brand is a fantastic addition to our tenant mix, further strengthening the professional community within the building," says Jolanta Jurga, Founder and Chairman of the Board at Evernord Asset Management.

With demand for premium office spaces in Riga on the rise, A-class office availability is shrinking, making this lease deal particularly significant.

"We continue to see the demand from companies looking to move into modern office premises in Riga’s city center. The number of available square meters in high-quality buildings is decreasing, and Novira Plaza is a great example of a successful business hub attracting top-tier tenants," notes Anna Lalova, Associate Director of Office Agency at Colliers Baltics, who exclusively represents the landlord.

Bigbank’s move to Novira Plaza further reinforces the trend of businesses prioritizing accessibility, sustainability, and high-quality workspaces, marking another milestone in Riga’s evolving office market.
