The way we work is changing and, at Steel City Stadium, we’re responding with more than just space. We’ve created a new kind of environment featuring a coworking lounge and performance café that brings together founders, teams and innovators at the heart of Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park.
This isn’t just about desks and coffee. It’s about building the foundations for ideas to take root and partnerships to grow, a place where enterprise meets wellbeing, and where ambition is fuelled by purpose.
On 30 June 2025, we opened the doors to this latest phase of development, transforming the ground floor of Steel City Stadium into a vibrant, flexible hub for people shaping the future of health, sport and innovation.
With more than £10 million invested in the Stadium so far, and a further £500,000 into this new workspace and café, this is a continuation of our long-term commitment to the Park, and to creating places that enable people and businesses to thrive.
Ian Sanderson, Estates and Development Consultant at SGI, commented:
“By opening up the ground floor of the Stadium, we’re creating far more than just office space. We’re building a thriving community, a place where ideas can flourish, partnerships can form and wellbeing is prioritised alongside productivity.”
Stadium Workspace offers hot desks, private booths, breakout zones and event spaces, all designed for modern working life. Through our partnership with Sheffield Technology Parks, members also gain access to practical business support, funding guidance and a growing regional innovation network.
Whether you’re a solo founder or a growing team, it’s a space designed to help you go further, faster.
Next door, our new performance café, operated by Sheffield’s own Food Fusion, is redefining what workplace food can be. Grounded in sports nutrition and fresh, functional ingredients, it’s open to everyone, with exclusive offers for members.
Already home to more than 30 organisations, the Stadium sits at the heart of Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park, an 80-acre innovation district where education, clinical research, sport and enterprise come together.
Surrounded by institutions including Sheffield Hallam University’s Advanced Wellbeing Research Centre, the English Institute of Sport Sheffield and Canon Medical Arena, this is one of the most exciting places in the UK to build a business focused on health and innovation.
And for us, this is just one step in our wider ambition to create places with purpose, where people live well, work well and leave a lasting legacy.
