Nexxus – New ways of working

What kind of world do (and did) we want to work in?

Reading time: approx. 1' 11"

Information technology and globalization are the decisive factors that will fundamentally change the structures of the working world. Flexibility, creativity and competence will take on a new significance. People are also placing new demands on the work of the future. An individually-minded generation is looking for a combination of different lifestyles, which should be reflected in their work.

Concept

The concept of the Nexxus start-up and service center addresses these processes and creates synergies between changing social and societal concepts of life and the restructuring of economic processes.

Nexxus is the concept of a start-up and service center for the areas of planning, design, development and consulting.

In the Nexxus center, a conglomerate of 'one-man entrepreneurs' with different service competencies work side by side and with each other. Everyone is their own boss and responsible for their own business. These young entrepreneurs can realize their needs for independent work and cooperation with similarly minded individual entrepreneurs, including project-related teamwork (group membership).

Planning

As part of the overall planning process, a forward-looking spatial concept supports communication with one another and creates networks. The physical proximity of the entrepreneurs dynamizes interdisciplinary working relationships, increases social competence and generates a higher potential for creativity, especially through informal communication and further training. In the Nexxus concept, the individual entrepreneur becomes part of the knowledge management and can fall back on corresponding structures, which usually take years to build up in conventional companies.

Goal

The aim of the concept is to design a modern form of workplace for the interface between training and professional reality, which is intended to help founders overcome the barriers of a lack of experience and excessive structural and financial demands.
