Catalyst and Deloitte have announced a new partnership which will see Catalyst establish a new hub for entrepreneurs in Belfast city centre.
Deloitte has agreed that Catalyst will activate the ground floor of the iconic Ewart Warehouse, part of its new NI headquarters in The Ewart, to create Catalyst Bedford Street. This is expected to attract a range of local startups and scaling companies to the historic Linen Quarter.
The new coworking space will feature over 90 desks in open plan areas and studios, a number of meeting pods and individual call booths, a presentation and events space and a café. The cafe will be run by award-winning social enterprise the NOW Group.
