About this space

Built on the concept of design thinking, the space is covered with whiteboards and has reconfigurable furniture to encourage people to generate creative ideas whether in a team or alone. The room fosters spontaneous and ad hoc meetings, and is the perfect place to meet, visualize ideas and get ideas out.

The space possesses computers with high processors that can be used for virtual reality and other projects that require a high GPU.
