The Knowledge Centre, has its own private entrance off the main Piazza and has a 255 seater auditorium with state-of-the-art AV and presentation facilities. It also offers five meeting rooms each with natural daylight, black out blinds, sound proofing and the latest audio-visual along with our on-site AV team. The whole centre can be exclusively booked making it an ideal location for large conferences with break out spaces or each room can be individually hired to suit meetings, presentations and product launches from 25 to 60 guests.
Within the Library is the Terrace Restaurant, with its floor to ceiling windows it is the perfect space for larger dinners, celebrations, and receptions for up to 200 guests. The outdoor, rooftop terrace is an unexpected bonus for events in the summer months.
