A new interactive exhibition space at Riga’s Origo shopping centre aims to showcase the latest innovations and achievements in science from Latvia. Named the RTU and Origo Future Stop, the initiative will cast light on the work of the students, engineers and scientists of Riga Technical University.
Located on level two of the new Origo building, the space is freely accessible. More than an entertainment facility, it allows members of the public and prospective students to not only see but also get a feel for what scientists, researchers and students are working on and how such solutions take shape. It is hoped that the initiative may foster interest in studying, as well encourage new interdisciplinary collaborations and commercialisation of the ideas.
