BHIVE, as a frontrunner in the industry, understands the need for premium spaces which cater to the nuanced and evolving requirements of our occupiers with respect to an elevated level of services. The launch of our Church Street facility in the central business district of Bengaluru will cater to these needs while also setting new benchmarks in the industry.
