Key to the OpenLab philosophy is that beyond being a radio station, OpenLabis a platform for a like-minded community spanning countries and continents – its worldwide audience currently topping half a million people and increasing daily.
To provide a focus for this community, augmenting its radio and digital operations, OpenLab plans to open physical centres – OpenLabHubs – in Ibiza, London and Berlin. The first of these, set in the unspoiled countryside of northern Ibiza, scheduled for 2016.
