FabLab: Encouraging employee innovation
The next and final episode in the FabLab series, which takes a look at the creative spaces playing a significant role in creating sustainable, innovative neighbourhoods.
Focus #3: The Company FabLab
The relation established between work spaces and company performance is bringing about new places for creativity, collaboration and innovation in offices.

They are also open spaces for employees to bring their ideas to fruition. FabLabs also bring management practices into question and offer new modes of organisation, such as ‘horizontal’ management, that meet what employees have come to expect.
