Apple Sound elected to use Bose audio solutions throughout the venue, including products from both the FreeSpace and Panaray ranges, as well as the Bose ControlSpace ESP-88 audio management system which gives a flexible DSP solution that university staff can operate with ease and confidence.
Transformed from the basement of the former Royal Infirmary, the Hub delivers a new concept in meeting and networking space on campus. It complements the existing award winning facilities by providing relaxed and informal meeting spaces for productive and creative meetings.
The new facilities include two training rooms, designed and developed for the delivery of staff training and development programmes, and the Hub Lounge, a dedicated meeting space which is available to both internal and external clients and is an ideal area for holding informal small meetings, network groups and promotional events.
The Hub Lounge gives access to full wireless facilities, internet access and up-to-the-minute live news along with comfortable surroundings and coffee bar. Modern presentation facilities combined with a bespoke Bose sound system allow great flexibility enabling different groups to access PowerPoint presentations or promotional DVDs simultaneously in different areas of the lounge.
Lynn Westbury, head of the Foresight Centre, said: "We are delighted with the new facilities. As one of the first venues to actively seek to bring the University and external organisations together, the Hub is purpose designed to stimulate networking opportunities in a relaxing contemporary environment."
