FAQs
What is The Base by CyprusInno?
The Base by CyprusInno, the world's first Social Impact Generator™, combines the elements of a coworking space, accelerator/incubator, innovation center, meeting/office space, and multimedia studio. Located in Cyprus' UN Buffer Zone, it is the first space of its kind in the world located in a demilitarized zone. A Social Impact Generator™ is an ever-evolving, multi-purpose space that enables the co-creation of social and economic impact in various fields of focus by bringing together both the private and public sectors, as well as civil society, via a hybrid platform of digital and physical tools. The Base by CyprusInno was a peace-keeping forces military container transformed into an innovative, peaceful, comfortable, and inviting space for the entrepreneurial communities of Cyprus.
