“Headsquarter offers us much more than just an office – here, hospitality, service, and central prime locations come together to create the perfect working atmosphere.”

What challenge did you face that brought you to HeadsQuarter?

As Benchling continues to scale in EMEA, empowering scientists and accelerating biotech breakthroughs, we needed a Zurich workspace that matched our standards without sacrificing flexibility. Our challenge was to find a partner who could provide a space that deeply aligns with our culture, supports hybrid workflows, and feels as intentional as our own headquarters in San Francisco.

Was there something that initially prevented you from considering us?

Initially, we were skeptical. After touring numerous spaces in Zurich, we often found great aesthetics without the operational rigor or personalized hospitality essential to Benchling’s standards. Any skepticism disappeared once we met the Headsquarter team and saw their dedication to quality.

What specific aspect do you like most at HeadsQuarter?

For us, it’s the perfect blend of design, personalized hospitality, and operational support. Headsquarter continues to truly invest in understanding our brand and culture, then translating that into an environment that feels uniquely Benchling.

Which three other benefits come to your mind spontaneously?

Scalability – Accommodating our dynamic teams, whether it’s for an individual or a full sales group.

Community & Culture – Our team genuinely feels embedded in a vibrant, collaborative community beyond the office walls.

Confidence & Trust – We can host customer meetings or executive events, knowing Headsquarter will deliver a consistently high-quality experience.

Which impact are you either experiencing or expecting from HeadsQuarter on your business?

Headsquarter has become a strategic hub, boosting our team’s productivity and cohesion. It’s where our GTM teams align strategies, reconnect with our company culture, and strengthen customer relationships. The peace of mind from knowing our Zurich office runs smoothly allows us to focus fully on Benchling’s core mission.

Is there anyone who could also really benefit from working with us? 

Companies that prioritize high-quality employee experiences, scalability, and a culture-forward environment would find tremendous value here. It’s especially well suited for growing teams that need operational reliability and hospitality without the overhead and long-term commitment of traditional real estate.

Is there anything else you'd like to share about HeadsQuarter?

Headsquarter is redefining flexible office solutions by building genuine partnerships. The relationships we’ve built with the Headsquarter team are truly supportive and never feel purely transactional. They’ve become an extension of the Benchling experience — and we look forward to growing together.
