Location The inaugural Virtual Worlds Forum Europe will be held at the Canvas buildings in the Kings Cross Freight Depot. The setting: a series of historic warehouses. The conversation: the future of business, brands and virtual worlds. Located just behind Kings Cross station, Canvas is situated in the former Bagley’s Bottle Factory, which saw serious commercial use during its industrial revolution heyday, and serious party action during its more recent club incarnation. London’s Kings Cross is undergoing one of the largest and most complex programmes of planning and development led regeneration in Europe; the Channel Tunnel Rail Link and Kings Cross Central, a £2 billion new urban quarter including the refurbishment and reuse of twenty historic buildings. This regeneration project combined with Canvas’s central location, lend a charismatic backdrop to this agenda-setting event. We look forward to welcoming you to London.
