The Beating Heart of Innovation
In order to enhance R&D capabilities, exchange insights on customer needs, and further strengthen the position in the Chinese market, Clariant invested in the construction of their first “One Clariant Campus” in Shanghai Xinzhuang Industrial Park. Clariant is convinced that this new Campus, as the beating heart of Clariant’s innovation efforts in China, can greatly enhance the abilities of Clariant teams and build deeper cooperation with local key customers and suppliers. “Bringing teams together is essential to create an environment triggering cooperation and innovation; this is exactly what this project is about. VIRTUARCH designed spaces which are friendly, stimulating, open and cooperative,” Andrea Lupoli, the lead designer of VIRTUARCH explains.
