US streaming technology firm Roku has invested in a new operation in Cardiff with the capacity to create 126 jobs. In a significant inward investment boost for the city and wider Cardiff Capital Region, the company has taken nearly 26,000 sq ft of space at the Fusion Point One office scheme in the centre of the city.
Roku, whose new space which has been fitted out and includes lab facilities, is the first tenant at the building since a multi-million-pound refurbishment by is owner Fidelity Real Estate Fund (a fund operated by Fidelity International). The rental agreement and term of the lease have not been disclosed.
There is strong interest in the remaining space in the 65,000 sq ft grade A office building with two and half floors to let with space from 6,000 sq ft to nearly 38,000 sq ft. Fletcher Morgan acted for Fidelity on the letting deal with JLL acting for Roku.
