JumboLabs Innovation Hub Coming Soon to London

The way we learn, train, and collaborate at work is changing fast—and London is about to get a new hub designed to put the power of immersive technology in everyone’s hands.

JumboLabs, a next-generation VR innovation campus, is actively searching for its flagship location in the heart of the capital. Designed to serve businesses, creative industries, and the wider community, JumboLabs aims to become the go-to destination for anyone looking to explore, learn, and shape the future of work with virtual reality.

What Is JumboLabs?

JumboLabs will be a publicly accessible, collaborative space equipped with the latest VR headsets and immersive learning tools. The initial goal: give individuals and teams hands-on access to high-quality soft skills and professional development experiences—no matter their job title, tech background, or experience level.

What Will JumboLabs Offer?

• Multiple VR stations: Users can book immersive training sessions, soft skills workshops, and industry-specific learning modules.

• Bookable demo areas: Startups, tech partners, and employers can showcase or test new VR apps and training tools in a real-world environment.

• Collaborative workshops and event spaces: Host team away days, innovation sprints, pop-up wellness programs, and creative showcases—all powered by immersive tech.

• Flexible product launch and media recording spaces: The campus will include areas for companies and creators to launch new products, record podcasts, film training content, or simply experiment with new ideas.

Designed for Today—And Built for Tomorrow

JumboLabs isn’t just about delivering training content. It’s about empowering London’s business, tech, and creative communities to:

• Make VR training accessible and inclusive, so that everyone (not just executives or “techies”) can build the skills they need for tomorrow’s workplace.

• Lower the barrier to entry for employers to pilot and deploy VR—no huge setup costs, no specialist staff required.

• Foster a true ecosystem for collaboration, bringing together startups, established companies, educators, and creatives under one roof.

• Accelerate the creation of new success stories by enabling organizations to gather feedback, test new solutions, and learn from real-world results.

Growing Beyond Training: The JumboLabs Vision

While the initial focus is on VR headsets and accessible training, JumboLabs has bigger ambitions:

• In the near future, the hub will offer support for employers and organizations to design and develop their own custom VR modules—creating tailored learning experiences that address their unique challenges.

• Developers and startups will have a dedicated testbed to pilot, iterate, and launch VR applications—with access to real users and potential enterprise customers.

• The space will regularly host themed pop-ups, innovation hackathons, and partner residencies, ensuring a continuous flow of fresh ideas and collaboration.

A Hub for Schools and the Next Generation

JumboLabs is committed to inspiring and supporting the next generation of tech talent.

• The campus will run dedicated sessions and hands-on workshops for local schools and young people, giving them a safe, inspiring environment to discover the possibilities of VR.

• By working closely with education providers and employers, JumboLabs will create pathways for students to explore careers in immersive technology—from creative storytelling and design to coding, engineering, and beyond.

• Young visitors will have the chance not only to experience VR, but to build and test their own ideas—opening the door to real-world skills, mentorship, and future job opportunities in one of the UK’s fastest-growing fields.

Why JumboLabs? The Benefits for London

• Workforce upskilling: Empowers all grades of staff to access cutting-edge, future-ready training—helping London companies stay competitive.

• Ecosystem growth: Creates a “collaboration engine” where employers, developers, educators, and wellness partners can co-create and share best practices.

• Diversity and inclusion: Removes barriers and ensures underrepresented groups, young people, and non-traditional learners are part of the innovation journey.
