At Innov8 you will have access to meeting rooms, start-up library, start-up cafeteria, lunch room and even a nap room. But if napping is not your idea of taking a break you can play foosball, mini golf, or head for some entertainment in the lounge area. You will of course have your unlimited access to office chai.
