Bega Business Park
Bega Business Park is a class A office park in Timișoara, Romania. It is developed by Bega Group, a Romanian group of companies whose shareholders are businessmen Marius and Emil Cristescu.
Location
Bega Business Park is centrally located in Timișoara, 500 meters from Victory Square, with access from Republic Boulevard and Splaiul Nicolae Titulescu, and less than 200 meters from the train station.History
Electromotor, a manufacturer of electric motors, generators, and transformers, was located on the site now occupied by Bega Business Park. Its origins trace back to the Friedrich factory, established in 1900, which was renamed Gebrüder Friedrich in 1904 when the founder's brother joined the business, and the Britania factory, founded in 1929. The Gebrüder Friedrich factory specialized in producing mechanical components for agricultural machinery and railway locomotives, while Britania focused on medium-powered electric motors. Following the political and economic changes after the fall of communism, Electromotor was privatized and eventually became part of the Bega Group, owned by Marius and Emil Christescu, operating under the name Bega Electromotor. Production ceased on 1 July 2015, with the final 50 employees being laid off.Upon completion, Bega Business Park is planned to comprise five office buildings with a total leasable area of 73,000 m2. The first building was completed in 2015 following the conversion of an industrial hall into class A offices, while the seven-story second building, totaling 14,000 m2, was finished in early 2018. Both were occupied in 2017 by the new Nokia campus, which includes Romania's largest telecommunications research and development center, with over 1,300 employees.
Since 2024, the West Regional Development Agency has been headquartered at the park.
The park has been BREEAM New Construction certified since 2016.
