Agnieszka from Arrow!

2nd place: solar
bench3rd place: outdoor gym

We will allocate up to PLN 10000 for the implementation of the winning project! You voted via the My Olivia app (available on the App Store or Google Play). You can read the descriptions of the three proposals below.

SOLAR BENCH

applicant: Sebastian from Energa SA

A solar bench with a charger is an eco-friendly piece of furniture with built-in photovoltaic panels. The panels allow you to harvest energy from the sun, which can be used to power Wi-Fi hot spots, heat the seat, power LCD displays, LED lighting, or monitoring. Built-in USB or inductive chargers allow you to charge your mobile equipment in public spaces. Manufacturers of solar benches are increasingly installing modern screens in their furniture, which display information about the current temperature, pressure, humidity or smog level.

MASSAGE CHAIR

submitter: Agnieszka z Arrow

Massage chairs allow you to move to a higher state of relaxation. They bring solace after a long day of work (or during it) and hustle and bustle. The massage performed by them contributes to the improvement of the appearance of the figure, soothes back pain and relaxes muscles. It relieves stress and relaxes. Are you interested in a massage chair that is a combination of modern solutions and stylish looks. Such an armchair, placed e.g. in Olivia Garden, will be a perfect complement to the offer of this place!

OUTDOOR GYM

applicants: Justyna and Weronika from Olivia and Adam from Aspire Systems

Although an outdoor gym will not give us as many training opportunities as those offered by fitness clubs, exercising outdoors has its own unique charm. Importantly, all the machines included in the outdoor gym are described, so they will work even for beginners. All devices are designed in a very simple way: they only use our body weight and/or a built-in constant load. Among the most common are:

Elliptical cross trainer – engages primarily the quadriceps and biceps femoris muscles, and to a lesser extent the shoulder muscles. You can treat yourself to a good workout on it.

Stepper – allows you to exercise your leg muscles, gives you the opportunity to burn fat and build fitness.

Rowing machine – a classic device for exercising both legs and back.

The bar is pulled down from the top – you work on it in a sitting position, pulling the bar down your back. During the exercise, you engage the upper parts of the muscles: the shoulder girdle, the latissimus dorsi, the trapezius, as well as the biceps.

Twister – can remind us of muscles that we didn’t even suspect existed.

Bars and ladders – their versatility means that using only your imagination and the force of gravity, you can precisely exercise any muscle group.

WHAT DO YOU CHOOSE? ONLY ONE OPTION WILL WIN! THE AUTHOR OF THE WINNING PROPOSAL WILL BE REWARDED!

VIR, which stands for Very Important Resident. In Olivia, YOU can do more!

Posted on by obc_adm

In Olivia and with the application dedicated to the employees of our center – MyOlivia – you can do much more. 

 

You have free entry to the Olivia Star observation deck

You download the MyOlivia app, take your phone with you; you probably don’t part with it anyway:), in the app you just click on the ” Scenic Floor” tile and show such a phone ticket at the Olivia Star TOP reception (Olivia Star building, reception from the Olivia Prime side). That’s it!

 

You will enter Olivia Garden for free throughout the week

The beginning of your activities is the same. You have the choice to enter whenever you want. You’re just passing by and you want to breathe in the exoticism, take a breather, commune with nature, or eat tofu for breakfast. All you have to do is “tap” on the “ I want to enter now” tile and the ticket is yours.

You can also plan a visit to the garden. What do you choose? “Schedule for later.” And if you invite family, friends, acquaintances from outside Olivia, the app allows you to buy tickets. It’s very simple.

 

We remind you of Olivia Garden’s opening hours

  • Mon-Thu: 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.
  • Sat: 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.
  • Sun: 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.

 

In the garden, we count to nine Iu. Why?

Because if you go to the garden, you never hurt yourself! On the contrary, it gains something extra. For 3 entries to Olivia Garden – delicious free coffee, for 6 entries – lemonade, for 9 entries – a finger-licking dessert. Actually, we count for you, because the number symbolizing the number of your entries is visible in the app next to the downloaded ticket. To collect the prize, all you have to do is show up at the TIKI bar in Olivia Garden, showing your ticket with the correct number: 3, 6 or 9.

As the name suggests, here we present a collection of news. We try to collect information that may be of interest to you. They can also be useful on a daily basis – e.g. a mini-guide for those returning to the office, which is hidden under this tile now.

The second edition of the Olivia Prize is starting!

Posted on by obc_adm

Olivia Prize 2021 – the call for applications for the second edition of our competition is now open! Submit your company or project by 28 February.

The Olivia Prize will be awarded in three categories:

  • Olivia Business – for an economic or business project carried out by a team of Residents.
  • Olivia Pro Bono – for a social project, carried out individually or in a team by the Residents.
  • Olivia Eco – for an ecological project, carried out individually or as a team by the Residents.

In addition, the Olivia Impact special award will be granted for the initiative assessed as the most impactful on the environment, within one of three categories. Projects completed or started in 2021 are eligible for the Olivia Prize 2021 awards.

Who can be nominated for the Olivia Prize?

Any person who works at the Olivia Centre, a company from Olivia and an initiative carried out individually or in groups can be nominated for the Olivia Prize. The age, position, or industry of the nominees doesn’t matter.

Who can apply for the award?

Anyone can submit an entry for the award. It is not necessary to be a Resident of Olivia Centre.

The aim of the Olivia Prize competition is to distinguish the most important implementations and initiatives of Olivia companies. Last year, the jury considered as many as 46 applications. The following were awarded: p-beep – for an innovative communication system in difficult working conditions; EPAM Systems – for the grassroots initiative of employees who, as volunteers, made and delivered personal safety equipment, including face shields, made using 3D printing technology, to Pomeranian hospitals. The main prize went to the Polish company VTS Group. The company’s flagship product, air handling units and air conditioning units, was appreciated. They find recipients all over the world, and their quality is evidenced by the fact that as many as 17 countries decided to use them in their pavilions during the EXPO 2020 exhibition in Dubai, which is coming to an end.

“Last year, we were very impressed by how many important and useful projects were implemented by our Residents in 2020. – says Bogusław Wieczorek from Olivia Business Centre. – Among the applications were activities in the field of ecology, animal protection, support for charitable organizations. They definitely dominated last year’s edition of the Olivia Prize. However, special recognition should be given to business projects, which were often carried out in spite of the difficult, dynamically changing situation on global markets. The thematic scope and scale of the projects submitted after such an exhausting 2020 make us look forward to the summary of the initiatives from 2021 with optimism and impatience. Importantly, the jury is composed of representatives of Olivia companies, so each award is particularly valuable, and the recognition from the business community often comes before the material dimension. –Adds.

This year, we are introducing an additional Olivia Eco category, which will be awarded in partnership with the United Nations Global Compact. UNGC was founded in 2000 and is now the largest corporate sustainability initiative in the world, with more than 12,000 companies and 3,000 non-business signatories in more than 160 countries.

” Already last year, a significant part of the applications concerned social and ecological projects that our Residents implemented in 2020. We very much hope that the cooperation with UNGC as a partner of the award will additionally contribute to the promotion of such activities. At the same time, we are very pleased that such a significant institution is willing to engage in the project we are organizing to distinguish the valuable initiatives of our Residents. – sums up Bogusław Wieczorek.

Applications are accepted until February 28, 2022, and the results will be announced in mid-March.
