The Sydney Central Business District has welcomed a new business collaboration centre launched by DXC Technology, with clients and workers continuing their return to the city.
Global IT consulting and services firm DXC Technology has launched a new Customer Engagement Centre in the heart of Sydney, which aims to facilitate innovation and collaboration as professionals continue to drift back to the workplace.
DXC Technology engaged representatives of the Indigenous community to give the centre a local language name: Ngara Djiyadi, translating to “knowledge, listen, hear, think, talk”.
“It’s time to start meeting face to face, and it’s time for businesses to start doing their part to revitalise the Sydney CBD,” said DXC Technology’s APAC president Seelan Nayagam. “Many Australian organisations have their headquarters based in Sydney, making it imperative to have a central space that brings us closer to them. We would be delighted to showcase the centre as a space that represents the future of modern workplaces.”
Described by the consulting firm as a flagship model of business innovation, the purpose-built drop-in centre has three quarters of its space allocated to collaboration, with such features as communal worktables, lounges, and tech-enabled reconfigurable spaces alongside adaptable multi-functional rooms – the latter likewise given Indigenous-themed names. The designers have also included ‘focus pods’ for quieter conversations.
