Fremont Business Park

Class A Office Space in Fremont, California

Teamwork Pays Off for TEAM Christy Members

by

Fremont Business ParkTEAM Christy is a unique business acceleration and networking group, created exclusively for tenants at Fremont Business Park at Christy Street. Offered free of charge by the partnership that owns and manages the office complex, the group’s objective is to enable businesses located at Christy Street to compete more effectively in a challenging economic climate.

The group meets monthly, guided by a certified chairman from Vistage International, the world’s leading organization for CEOs. Vistage helps develop enhanced leadership and decision-making skills for attendees. But equally important, TEAM Christy members make connections at these meetings with other businesses down the hall or in the next building – and these connections can result in new business for one or both parties.

TEAM Christy Success Stories
Already, a number of businesses in Fremont Business Park are reporting that they’ve acquired new business from introductions made through the monthly TEAM Christy meetings:

• Codeminders – an IT boutique consulting team in 42840 Christy St., Suite 230, specializing in bleeding edge technologies – contracted with Uniforce Sales and Engineering in 42501 Albrae St., Suite 210 for essential engineering studies and the creation of a prototype in a new product area.

• Ontara Corporation – an IT service provider that specializes in server-based networks, network security and disaster planning and recovery – was selected to work with Fremont Business Park itself to implement the building’s high-speed, fiber optic Internet service for tenant subscribers.

• LNT Business Solutions – which provides a wide range of services including bookkeeping, income tax preparation, notary, and immigration services or related matters – has also won significant business from TEAM Christy members.

Next TEAM Christy Meeting is Thursday, January 13th
TEAM Christy’s first meeting of the year is Thursday January 13th from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Lunch is included, and again, there’s no charge or obligation for becoming part of the TEAM. This is simply an additional service offered by Borelli Investment Company for tenants.

It’s critical that you make the time to kick off 2011 properly by capitalizing on the competitive advantages to be gained by being part of TEAM Christy.

Thursday, January 13th: 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.

Happy Holidays from Fremont Business Park!

by

As all eyes turn skyward to catch a glimpse of that jolly old man in the fur-trimmed red suit, we at Fremont Business Park think it’s time for a look back at 2010 and all that we have to be thankful for this year.

Fremont Business ParkTo be honest, 2010 didn’t start off very well. If you’ll recall, the dust and noise from Christy Street’s extensive $2 million makeover was a bit of a nuisance. And on the economic front, the financial markets started downhill about as fast as a sleigh slides off a snow-covered roof. Things didn’t look good.

But by the time the winter rains had ended, not only had the markets started back up again, but the all-encompassing renovation was also complete. Inside and out, Fremont Business Park was like new. New formal tiled entries. New hallways. New doors and signage for the individual suites. New smaller offices to accommodate businesses just starting out. Upgraded restrooms. New conference room. New fitness facility with showers. ADA upgrades. New roof on Building 42840 Christy St. New paint. New landscaping. Resurfaced parking lot. New monument signage. Whew!!

And as they say in that baseball movie, once it was built, they did come. And they kept coming. Several new tenants had already moved in before the official grand re-opening in April. And a steady stream of businesses have continued to make Christy Street their home ever since.

TEAM Christy Created a Connected Business Community
In May, the first meeting of TEAM Christy Street was held. TEAM Christy offers each business within Fremont Business Park the opportunity to make business connections with their neighbors and to network in ways that simply aren’t commonplace in typical business complexes. Members are even provided the opportunity to gain additional exposure for their businesses by contributing to this blog!

Over the past eight months, TEAM Christy participants have referred leads to one another and even done business together. And in the Fall, Sterling Lanier, a chairman with Vistage International – the world’s leading CEO organization – got involved with TEAM Christy to add leadership development activities to the value received at each meeting.

High-Speed Internet Service
In September, Fremont Business Park completed an upgrade to the building’s fiber optic infrastructure and began offering the area’s fastest dedicated Internet service – without the slowdowns that can occur when other services pass through a central office. And the monthly costs offer significant savings over most business plans!

Then in October, TEAM Christy members got to meet business people from Borelli Investment Company’s other Building Business Network teams – TEAM Club Auto Sport and TEAM Junction. Members of the three TEAMS gathered and shared experiences at a special mixer before the inaugural concert in the Club Auto Sport Music Series.

And now, 50 blogs and 15,000 words later, here we are in the holiday season. What a year! From all of us at Borelli Investment Company and Fremont Business Park, we wish you and yours the happiest holiday season and a healthy and prosperous 2011!

If we can do anything for you or your business associates, please don’t hesitate to contact Lee Jatta, or call (408) 453-4700 x140. DRE License #01828564

Christy Street’s Ideal Fremont Location Drawing Businesses from Throughout the Bay Area

by

As new businesses continue to relocate to Fremont Business Park at Christy Street, a trend has become clear. Fremont is the place to be. And Christy Street offers one of the best locations in Fremont.

They’re coming from all over. Pleasanton and the rest of the Tri-Valley. Hayward. Union City. Other East Bay cities. Even the Peninsula. A long list of companies from diverse locales has focused on Fremont as the gateway to Silicon Valley – a way to serve technology clients without the higher rents of other Silicon Valley locations, while offering a fast and easy commute to employees.

And Fremont Business Park, located on Christy Street off Auto Mall Parkway just a block away from the Pacific Commons shopping center, is without a doubt the best building in the area. Businesses get Class A office space in an extensively renovated complex. The formal entries are tastefully appointed and make a good first impression on tenants and visitors alike. The hallways are light and airy. The bathrooms have been completely redone. Tenants have access to a well-equipped conference room with full audio-visual support as well as audioconferencing capabilities. There’s also a brand new fitness center with showers to allow employees to work out and get back to work in less time – for greater efficiency and productivity.

Fast Freeway Access
Commuters appreciate the fact that I-880 is literally two minutes away – one minute if you make the light! Hwy 84 and the Dumbarton Bridge, providing direct access to the Peninsula, are a few exits north on I-880. And Hwy 237, leading into to the heart of Silicon Valley, is about the same distance south on I-880. All this means less time in cars, and more time getting work done or getting home to families – for more satisfied, loyal employees.

Wine, Dine, Shop, and Care for your Car

Pacific Commons Shopping Center has a broad selection of white tablecloth and quick-serve establishments – as well as large retailers for your shopping pleasure. Major stores include Kohl’s, Costco, Staples, Office Depot, Lowe’s, DSW, and Old Navy. Food and beverage places include PF Chang’s, Claim Jumpers, Applebee’s, Carino’s Italian Grill, Panera Bread, In-N-Out Burger, Quiznos, Cold Stone Creamery, and Starbucks.

And if you need service for your car – or simply want to window shop for a new vehicle – Fremont Auto Mall is just a mile away. Head down Auto Mall Parkway, then make a left on Cushing Parkway. You’ll find dealers for BMW, Chevrolet, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Lexus, Nissan, Porsche, Toyota, and Mercedes-Benz. Think of the convenience and the time you’ll save when your vehicle needs to be taken in for service!

If you’ve been looking for a like-new Class A office complex in an ideal location, you must see Fremont Business Park at Christy Street. For a tour, e-mail Lee Jatta, or call (408) 520-2437. DRE License #01828564

by

Whatever you have planned for the second week of December, you need to ensure your lunchtime is free on Thursday, December 9th, so you can attend the next luncheon meeting of TEAM Christy.

Sterling Lanier, a certified chair with Vistage International – the world’s leading CEO organization – will guide all attendees through a personal and business goal-setting exercise that will give you a phenomenal head start on a year that is shaping up to be the most important since the recession hit in 2006.

With many analysts saying that it looks like the recovery is finally taking hold and becoming self-sustaining, will you be ready to take advantage of the business and personal opportunities that will be available as the economy gains traction? You will if you make time to attend the complimentary luncheon with Sterling and your fellow TEAM members.

Why Vistage International?
Vistage International has built a global network of more than 14,000 CEOs who meet regularly with Vistage – sharing ideas and experiences with other CEOs in trusted, confidential, small-group settings. Sterling’s extensive experience leading these meetings ensures that the monthly sessions at Fremont Business Park may well be the best two hours you’ll spend all month.

What do TEAM members think about the meetings? Here’s what a member of sister group, TEAM Junction in San Jose, said:

“TEAM meetings provide a midday solution for business networking and encourage business owners who would not normally cross paths to share expertise, suggestions and solutions. The meetings provide activities and discussions that enable us to step outside our comfort zone of just looking straight ahead, and approach resources that would otherwise be unknown.”
