Lithuanian co-working company Tech Zity will invest €100M ($100M) to build Europe's largest tech campus in the capital of Vilnius. The campus, set to open in 2024, will provide private workspace for 5,000 tech workers, meeting and event spaces, co-living spaces, and restaurants. Spanning the size of 10 football fields, the private project will be two-thirds larger than Paris' Station F, currently Europe's largest startup campus. - The campus, dubbed a "Lithuanian Silicon Valley," will operate 24/7 to accommodate the growing number of hybrid workers.
- Tech Zity aims to transform Vilnius' old sewing factories into workspaces while preserving their historical identity.
- Its project draws inspiration from British renovations like Battersea Power Station and Tate Modern art gallery.
- Vilnius, the second-largest city in the Baltic state, is emerging as the fastest-growing tech ecosystem in central and eastern Europe, with notable unicorns like Vinted and Nord Security (NordVPN).
