I spent part of this morning at Creative (www.creative-va.com), getting a tour of their very unique facility and talking about the convergence of furniture and technology in a variety of workplaces. As plans progress for the new wing of the business school, the University will need to think about how people will communicate, learn and work in the next decade and beyond. It was therefore a very enlightening experience. The absence of walls at their headquarters was striking. The video applications, including a massive image being projected on one wall, were intriguing.
We are hopeful about identifying potential capstone projects at Creative (and perhaps with its clients) for 2010. I think our MBA students would find such an engagement to be very educational.
