They also give tours to bring interested parties up to date on new insights and techniques that can be used to increase people's vitality. Bringing different partners together is key.

The built environment is not only there to save energy, but above all to serve people optimally in a healthy, inspiring and fun workplace. To serve people optimally in order to be successful and healthy.

A bright and energetic workplace requires positive energy. Light is energy, and human biology is sensitive to it. Through hormones, it influences how awake we are, whether we are in a good mood and whether we sleep well at night. That is why the dynamic daylight of Sparckel is part of the Workplace Vitlty Hub.
