2005: Locale is born

Founded in 2005 by Guy Windsor-Lewis, Locale was originally a solution providing commercial buildings with a cloud-based, permission based property management software. It provided building documentation and tenant company information, such as leases, invoices, forms for permits and local information. His vision was to digitally transform an industry that was prone to outdated processes. The Locale platform has now evolved into multi-functional software that facilitates operations and occupier engagement. This includes smart features like visitor management, deliveries, helpdesk, amenity bookings and much more.
