The Garrigues Group, of which G-advisory is a part, has inaugurated its new corporate headquarters in the Torres de Colón in Madrid

As of today, it exclusively occupies the 20,298 square meters and 117 meters in height of the iconic building.

The Garrigues Group, of which G-advisory is a part, has moved its corporate headquarters to the Torres de Colón in Madrid. From today, the 700-strong Madrid team will be based at the 20,298 m2, 117 meter-high iconic building. After 19 years at Calle Hermosilla 3, the firm’s new address is Plaza de Colón, 2.

Garrigues will be the sole occupant of the building, owned by Mutua Madrileña, which has been completely remodeled by architectural firm Luis Vidal. The structural renovation of the building, carried out by engineering firm Calter, has received an award from the Madrid Association of Civil Engineers.

The remodeled building incorporates the latest solutions in energy efficiency and sustainable design. It holds the LEED Gold certification and is in the process of obtaining the WELL certification, both of which guarantee the highest standards in terms of sustainability, health and well-being. Thanks to a system that enables power to be generated on-site, thereby reducing consumption by 60% compared to a conventional building and minimizing CO₂ emissions to practically zero, it will be the first office building in Spain to be classed as a Nearly Zero-Energy Building (NZEB) in accordance with EU directives. Almost 10% of the energy consumed will be generated in the building itself.

“Our new head office meets all the requirements to enable us to continue providing the best possible service to our clients in a representative, comfortable and modern building, with spacious workspaces, natural light throughout and great views, that gives us flexibility and enables us to be more sustainable”, explained Fernando Vives, executive chairman of Garrigues.
