Cloaked in mystery, The Lighthouse dates from 1875, when it sat atop Netten\u2019s Oyster Bar. Flashing to signal the arrival of seafood to busy crowds, it sat derelict for too many years before caring restoration in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Fittingly run by managed services company, Landmark, The Lighthouse is anything but a building relocation project. In fact, it\u2019s a major Genesys milestone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor many organisations, ours included, the last couple of years awakened the idea that people should be judged on output not a nine-to-five treadmill,\u201d says EJ. \u201cThe Lighthouse reflects that post-pandemic culture. We want it to be a thriving <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-gb\/products\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CX innovation<\/a> hotbed. Somewhere people feel and think differently as to how they work. Somewhere to connect with the industry\u2019s top talent and brightest young minds.

The UK and Ireland executive team will take residence at the end of this month. At its core is the new Genesys Experience Centre conceived to host insightful briefings and technical demos, bringing to life the art of CX possible through customer journeys viewed in 3D and virtual reality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-gb\/campaign\/request-a-demo-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Genesys Experience Centre<\/a> will use immersive technologies to reproduce the conditions under which this century\u2019s CX will flourish,\u201d adds EJ. \u201cThrough such simulations the more we know about our customers\u2019 customer and their wants and needs, the more we can help make data-driven decisions to strengthen loyalty.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Buzzy social scene<\/strong><br \/>\nAccess to The Lighthouse couldn\u2019t be easier. Adjacent mainline King\u2019s Cross and St Pancras stations are complemented by six underground links, augmented by the brand-new Elizabeth line.
