"We used the HUB Kings Cross for an unconference for designers and makers in the Summer of 2012, and it was a great venue for it! We had major speeches at the ground floor, while there were workshops going on in the meeting rooms, and showcasing at the top floor. The great food from the cafe helped too! And the designers loved the interior of the HUB and with many people coming from outside London the closeness to Kings Cross is very helpful too."
