Vivo Executive Apartment

Vivo Executive Apartment is a freehold serviced apartment located in Aspen Vision City, Batu Kawan, Penang. This upcoming project is jointly developed through a strategic venture between Penang-based Aspen Group and IKEA Southeast Asia.

Concept

Built with the modern-day working adult in mind, Vivo Executive Apartment features a communal co-working space on the ground floor where residents can mingle, network, and fulfill their ambitions – without even having to leave the premises.

Residents will also enjoy the opportunities that arise from this project’s strategic location in Aspen Vision City, an upcoming metropolis built in close collaboration with Penang Development Corporation (PDC) and Northern Corridor Implementation Authority (NCIA).
