London—Dentons has advised Partners Group, the global private markets manager, on its investment, on behalf of its clients, in the development of Skylab, a state of the art office building in the Plan-les-Ouates high-tech and business park in Geneva, Switzerland. Skylab is adjacent to the highly successful Bluebox building, replicating the construction and target market at a higher standard and lower cost, with completion planned for summer 2015.

Skylab will offer approximately 22,500 m2 of Grade A office accommodation over five floors including parking, an onsite nursery and restaurant, and is strategically located less than 15 minutes from Geneva's International Airport. The asset will also benefit from outstanding green credentials, targeting a BREEAM excellent rating, and is also in line to achieve the "Minergie Label", the Swiss sustainability award for green design and technology.

The Dentons team was led by Neil Nicholson (Partner, Corporate) and included real estate input from Madeleine Smallwood (Partner, Real Estate). This is the tenth investment transaction on which Dentons has advised Partners Group in the last year.

Bär & Karrer's Geneva office advised Partners Group on matters of Swiss law and Beerens & Avocats advised on matters of Luxembourg law.
