“Downstream’s global experience with EBC’s and technology has been crucial in bringing the wow experience forward”
Nilesh Patil, Pace Port Innovation Lead
The center’s design inspiration is based on TCS brand values of being open, innovative, flexible, digital, and vibrant. Each zone of the facility supports key engagement models with customers.
The Hub is a central connection point of the facility. A space to celebrate innovation for all those who enter, welcoming thought leaders and developers alike. The environment supports reception, check-in services, self-exploration of the digital library, and open access to the TCS Innovation Showcase.
Throughout the center, the TCS brand visual is seamlessly woven into the interior architecture and digital platforms. Our ambition was to provide a unique, inspiring backdrop that communicates the TCS Pace Port brand vision.
At the heart of the hub is a large multi-touch video wall. The platform is used to inform guests of what can be expected across the Pace Port Ecosystem. The digital platform is also used to host industry events and target specific customer content.
A premier, immersive presentation zone where guests are invited to explore possibilities about their industry. Demonstrations are presented here as the first step of any engagement in the center.

The Innovation Boulevard connects five independent Agile studios and a Maker Space. This focus area supports local and distributed teams in the creation of rapid prototyping. Clients collaborate with TCS here to realize concepts in formal working studios.
