Our locations
Stockholm
Our award-winning Swedish head office is located on the island of Riddarholmen in central Stockholm. Inaugurated in 2017, it offers not only beautiful views over the city but also an attractive workspace with all the amenities to make you feel at home, whether at the gym, the cinema, the karaoke room, the library or the gaming room.
Hamburg
Our German office opened in Hamburg in 2022 and is located in the vibrant Altona district. Here, you can live the life of a Pirate, socializing and working in the office close to the harbor, bars, and lively local culture.
London
Our UK office is nestled in the heart of East London. If you wish to take a break from work, Shoreditch's lively and fashionable district is just around the corner, offering an array of superb cocktail bars, restaurants, and coffee shops.
