Your office-away-from-office
This is an amazing place to work, so why not join us? Modern Jago is also open Monday to Friday 9 - 7 for you to come and work from the space and meet other creative individuals, companies, start-ups, designers and developers also working in the space. It's a great chance to collaborate and discuss what you’re working on; we even have Microsoft experts onsite if you're interested in app development, design or simply to try out the latest Windows 8 devices.
Simply turn up on the day for co-working, no booking required. Space isn’t exclusive, so be willing to share with like-minded teams and individuals. Who knows? It may be the chance meeting that changes everything.
