Wherever Whenever - Work Culture Festival: Interstuhl - VR Experience

Dive into a New Dimension: The Interstuhl VR Experience

At Orgatec 2024, the world of Interstuhl was within reach – with a unique VR experience that could only be found there. Personalised content was presented at various stations, not only showcasing Interstuhl’s products and services, but also awakening new perspectives and emotions.

The highlight: an unforgettable virtual tour with a breathtaking view that won’t soon forget.
