Chance to host events at £100m venue where ‘big ideas take off’

An iconic £100m centre that is home to world-leading innovators in space technology is giving organisations the chance to make their events stand out from the crowd.

The University of Leicester’s Space Park Leicester hosts a community of businesses, academics and researchers who are ensuring the UK is a significant player in the global space sector and it has won multiple built environment awards.

Now organisations can take advantage of the venue – including its striking 350sqm atrium which is surrounded by satellite models and Luke Jerram’s awe-inspiring ‘Gaia’ artwork of planet Earth – to stage all types of events including staff away days, exhibitions, receptions, launches and conferences for up to 200 people.

Space Park Leicester Partner Support Manager Monika Lenart said: “Space Park Leicester isn’t a typical venue. It’s a gateway to discovery — an iconic landmark where industry, academia and government come together to turn ambition into action.

“Our venue is just moments away from the award-winning National Space Centre and combines cutting-edge technology with inspiring surroundings – from intimate meeting rooms to a 200-person conference. Every space has been designed with flexibility, creativity, and connection in mind, supported by high-speed connectivity and modern AV facilities.

“We’re an ideal venue for corporate innovators, technology firms, public sector and government departments, the healthcare sector, universities and research organisations, event planners and agencies as well as the business community.

“We’re thrilled to be able to give organisations the chance to host their next event where big ideas take off.”
