Networking at the Tabakfabrik

was founded by Netural´s CEO Albert Ortig, Iris Mayr and Michael Badics. Iris Mayr has already played a major part in projects like Linz09, Kepler Salon and Prix Ars Electronica. Michael Badics has, by masterminding AEC Solutions, gained a reputation that reaches far beyond the Linz area. According to Iris Mayr, AXIS inteds to „conquer“ a share of the available space at Tabakfabrik, transplanting Netural´s interdisciplinary work approach to a coworking space. Tabakfabrik will lend AXIS the charms of a unique location. The space draws a variety of users ranging from creative professionals to the music lab and even carpenters, producing an environment in which new approaches can grow unhampered by obsolete coventions. A floor space of 5400 square feet houses 38 workplaces, three meeting rooms and additional space for get-togethers and events. A modern infrastructure facilitates not only the AXIS user community, but linking with other initiatives and enterprises as well. “We are anyting but an isolated meeting room,” says Iris Mayr, emphasizing the openness of the AXIS concept.
