From poetry to photography and everything in between, we have a prolific appreciation of art. To highlight this, we’ve implemented a “Creative Corner” series – articles and social posts showcasing the recent projects and collections from our community members. This week we’re featuring Nordine Sebkhi, Inventor of MagTrack.

In honor of Friday, April 22 being Earth Day, we thought none better than to take a deep dive into the current and future impacts on climate. So, we invited four energy and electric vehicle (EV) experts to serve as panelists for our Fireside Chat: EV Effects on the Environment.

On the afternoon of Friday, April 22, one our student partners, Startup Exchange (SX), hosted their semi-annual pitch competition and invited community members and the general public to join.

Ramtin Motahar, Tech Square ATL (TSQATL) Social Club community member and Founder of Joulea, a software platform that reduces energy costs and consumption in commercial buildings, helped us celebrate Earth Day by popping-up in the Tech Square Courtyard to educate people about energy efficiency!

On what we hope to be one of many beautiful spring days, we popped up on Wednesday afternoon in the Tech Square courtyard to get some fresh air, sunshine, and answers – all around accessibility.

Throughout the spring semester, Georgia Tech civic organization, Bits of Good (BoG), worked side-by-side with nine different non-profits to aid them in building out specific web applications. To highlight their accomplishments, we hosted a Showcase with our student partner group to share their latest advancements in the web, app, and software development they created for the local organizations

On Thursday, March 31, Blockchain at Georgia Tech (GT), a student-run organization founded in August 2021 to empower the student body with educational resources and opportunities within the evolving world of blockchain technology, cryptocurrency, and Web3, hosted their inaugural open house social event at Tech Square ATL (TSQATL) Social Club.

Kicking off Pi Day the right way (rhyming was unintentional), we called upon all space cadets to accept the mission of solving a space-related word problem that involved the usage of the near 31 trillion digits that constitute the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. The reward? A round trip ticket to a secret speakeasy in Tech Square, complete with complimentary cocktails (not freeze-dried, fortunately).

On Thursday, March 10, TEDxGeorgiaTech (TEDxGT), a student-run organization, hosted their semester event, Open Mic Night, at The Clubhouse. As TEDxGT’s venue and technology partner, Tech Square ATL (TSQATL) Social Club helped facilitate this exciting gathering, with a mix of students, members, and guests showing up to the 9,000 square foot venue to showcase ideas that inspire change at Tech Square, on Georgia Tech's campus, and beyond!

With gas prices steadily increasing as of late, the desire for electric vehicles (EVs) has increased substantially as well. Based on this amplified popularity, we wanted to talk with our community about EV charging stations in general, our current setup, and how it could be improved. Being the brainiacs we are, we decided a Brains in a Bar activation was the perfect setting to discuss such a topic. But in order to be invited to the secret speakeasy location, you first had to correctly solve a question, this one obviously being about batteries.

Ah, Valentine’s Day – a holiday to celebrate all things that make your heart flutter – but we’re not just talking about love here. Many other things can affect your heart rate. Exercise, for instance, is a big one. Fear can also increase your beats per minute (BPM). And so can certain foods and beverages. To prove that romance isn’t the only thing to make your heart skip a beat, we decided to share some sweet treats – and test our tenants.

Knowing our Technology Enterprise Park (TEP) community has an affinity for the sweet side of things, we wanted to treat our talented tenants – but not before making them work for it first! With our members being primarily researchers, chemists, and scientists, we wanted to see how their engineering skills fared. So we set up shop in the lobby on a late Thursday afternoon to put them to the test!

At Tech Square ATL (TSQATL) Social Club, the beginning of a new year represented more than a fresh start and setting resolutions – it also ushered in an exciting new tenant at The Clubhouse. Axis Replay, a high-tech esports entertainment company focused on powering personal connections via impactful experiences, now calls Tech Square home. With similar missions in mind, we teamed up to host an open house for both familiar and fresh faces to enjoy gaming, networking, and learn more about what’s in store for 2022.

Since it’s the season of giving, we wanted to show our appreciation for our amazing community members and tenants. To us, there was no better way to celebrate our community and the holidays than to transform the lobby of Centergy One, The Cantina, and the courtyard into our very own winter wonderland – Tech Square Holiday Party: Snow Much Fun!

The beginning of a new year is often seen as a fresh start, and a perfect time for resolutions and goal-setting to take place. So in mid-December we set the perfect foundation to spread some holiday cheer, reflect on the past year, and look forward to future accomplishments by hosting a Coffee Talk: Cocoa and Career Goals with our Technology Enterprise Park (TEP) community members.
