Say congratulations to...
A lot has been going on at HUB this year, with new faces, internal promotions and a huge desk reshuffle to create a more connected and cohesive workspace.

Mon 19 Dec 2016‘If London were a person, who would it be?’, Robert, our CEO, recently tweeted while at The London Conference, the annual get-together of influential, senior policy, business and academic leaders. The responses were as eclectic and varied as you might expect, with a general, agreeable gravity towards David Bowie.
Ask the question amongst your friends and colleagues and get their reaction. What’s interesting, is that it’s likely everyone will select someone famous; a celebrity, sportsperson, politician, a key historical figure. What’s also fascinating is the variation in response and the differing reasoning.
The truth is, London is very hard to pin down. It’s a city that can be so much and do so much. It’s not an exhilarating or challenging place. It’s not a shopping mecca or a cultural melting pot. It’s all of these things and much more. That’s sort of why we like it. It’s for everyone and about everyone.
Who would London be? Look in the mirror. London is most probably you.

Hoola London
Improving the face of E16
We were delighted to see the first residents move into Hoola in October. The two curved, rippling glass towers contain a total of 360 new homes, and have become instant icons of East London. To see the towers come to life was a milestone we all enjoyed here at HUB.
Over the next few years, there will be significant and lasting regeneration of this well connected, watery world. We dare to hope that Hoola’s location, at the gateway to London’s Royal Docks, will set a new benchmark in the area for architectural quality and energy efficiency.
