The Innofuse web platform and community are expected to grow rapidly in the launch year. We are fully aware that **the value** of our platform and its memberships **will evolve** over time. Therefore, we plan to roll out our functionalities step by step. The learning algorithms will improve with the growing community and interactions on the platform.

Status Update ETM 3

After establishing our co-working/-creating space at ORBIZ, we entered into a contract with launchlabs, enabling our members to utilize launchlabs as an extended workbench. We are thrilled to share this exciting news with our members.

Co-working, trainings, and workshops will be possible at launchlabs, mirroring the offerings at ORBIZ. ORBIZ remains our primary base, while launchlabs serves as our partner for addressing capacity bottlenecks or the need for a larger location, especially for events.

Now, what does this mean for our members? Your membership includes access to the co-working and workshop space "Room Süd" (for up to 20 people) at no additional cost, subject to our terms and conditions. In essence, if our facilities at ORBIZ are at full capacity or you require a larger room for up to 20 people, you can utilize launchlabs, enjoying the same office space amenities as at ORBIZ. As an added bonus, our members receive a 50% discount on additional Launchlabs space rentals, such as the spacious event hall accommodating up to 200 people.
In simpler terms, your office now extends to a vibrant location in Gundeldinger Feld, Basel, with launchlabs. This unique space emits old fabric industrial romanticism and is surrounded by startups, excellent lunch options, and leisure facilities like a climbing/bouldering hall, a brewery, and nearby after-work drink spots.

Welcome to our inaugural physical office and co-creation space. After an extensive search for the perfect location for our members and ourselves, we discovered ORBIZ in the city of Basel, located at Aeschengraben 9.

The central location and proximity to the train station of the office space allow us to welcome people from all over the country as well as international guests. It takes a 4-minute walk or one tram stop (less than 1 minute) from Basel SBB to reach us. By public transportation, you can reach us in 60 minutes from Zürich HB, 65 minutes from Bern SBB, and the Euro Airport Basel is 20 minutes away by bus. Public parking (Aeschen-Parking) is conveniently located in the building, 5 minutes from the highway exit/access road.

While the central location in Basel is undoubtedly a significant advantage, it's not the only one. The entire office space is brand new (2023) and furnished with Vitra furniture.

This modern co-working space will enable the Innofuse community to access an inspiring environment for co-working, meeting other members, workshops (e.g., brainstorming), or training sessions, including all office space amenities. This includes access to the lounge equipped with free fresh coffee, etc.

This is the physical space where the Innofuse community creates Eureka moments every day! Join us on one of the open-door days – dates will be communicated soon on our webpage.

Interested in learning more about our new physical base? A virtual tour is just one click away - see butten bellow.
