Creating the knowledge cauldron
Designing for high-tech science, innovation and research starts in a decisively low-tech manner – by face-to-face communication. By working together in the same location, in places where knowledge can be shared within an expansive SciTech ecosystem, valuable relationships can be forged. Spaces which nourish connectivity are crucial for ground-breaking scientific discovery and technological breakthroughs. Here, our SciTech experts share their ideas for creating the best knowledge cauldrons, helping to stir the creative pot for true innovation.
