WASA INNOVATION CENTER
Wasa Innovation Center is one of Bock’s Corner Villages main projects. Wasa Innovation Center is focused on business-oriented solutions in AI and digitalization but is also working with other topics that are driving the progress and future well-being of our region.

BOCK'S BAZAAR
Bock´s Innovation Center (officially Wasa Innovation Center) has a dedicated premise – the Bazaar building – with a MindSquare at its disposal. The aim is to organize human connections instead of organizational bureaucracy. In the building will work talented engineers, artists, economist, lawyers and project administrators. Special attention is paid to the understanding of the digital world and AI functions in all aspects of business and life.
Stay Tuned for updates!
Make Good! is a pledge to simply do what it says- to make good! For us it means that we strive to develop ourselves and our practices to an international standard, we work actively to develop the local economy and we support our community!
Best in Europe!
We strive to be the best in Europe in what we do. We compete in a global market and if we wish to retain our level of welfare all of our aims should be set at the global level. This is why we have invested, and will continue to invest, heavily in order to create unique surroundings, top-of-the-line manufacturing processes and world-class know-how in Bock’s Corner.
Local economy
All of us benefit from a thriving local economy and the best way to support it is by consuming locally produced goods and services straight from the producer. Aside from producing our own products (beers, ciders, coffee, meat etc.) and favoring locally produced raw materials, we also actively promote local produce though various venues. For instance, we regularly organize markets for local producers where participation is entirely free of charge, we have launched the “Thursday Movement” which aims to increase consumption of local products by 10€/pers. per week and we participate actively in the creation of the new Innovation Center in Bock’s Corner.
community
We are part of the community we work in, hence, we want our work to have a positive influence on our community. We regularly organize events which bring people of all ages together- family friendly festivals, seminars, culture and art shows, the city’s grandest fireworks on New Year’s Eve etc. However, we also support local causes through different forms of cooperation (e.g. jointly organized fundraisers) and grants.
