Lithuania is vying to become one of the major European tech hubs, bolstered by a growing number of so-called “unicorn” startups and governmental efforts to attract a high-profile accelerator to the country. At the same time, a new €100 million private initiative announced today is setting out to create what would be Europe’s largest tech campus, situated in the heart of Lithuania’s capital Vilnius.

Building on the site of an old Soviet-era sewing factory in the city’s New Town, Tech Zity, as the project is called, is touted to open in 2024 with office space for 5,000 workers, auditoriums for meetings and events, and more. In addition, a core selling point will be its focus on hybrid working, with a 24/7 ethos supported by co-living spaces, restaurants and bars for out-of-work socializing.
