In the background of Industrial 4.0, the manufacturing process is dispersed and independent entities and individuals are emphasized. The process of manufacturing and managing are connected in order to produce products(in a proper amount) that are highly customized and able to fulfill specific requirements of customers.

In this site, we are seeing the process of innovation, product development and creation as a sort of “commodity”, which also is required to cater to the very specific demands, and is deeply based on the trend and current situ ation of the relevant market. We are seeking to create an incubator that is able to adapt to different needs in the innovative-product-developing process and the beginning stage of new companies-which demands the facilitating of co-operation, idea exchange, collective flexible teamwork as well as in-time information releasing and sharing and material distribution for the start-up companies and free cooperation in innovation. In order to achieve this, we introduced a new model of working pattern here, whose core is the circulation of the process of temporary collective teamwork. The moveable UNITS being transported in the rail system make it possible for people to work with their temporary partners in the very same place, while the storage and logistics center distributes materials and equipments each temporary team requires through the rail rapid-transportation system. What we are trying to create here is a highly-efficient infrastructure specifically designed for the innovation process.

The whole system working on the site in the buildings we create is generally based on the advanced information technology and highly automatic transporting and delivering infrastructures. This can only be achieved with the involvement of the communication technology introduced in the industrial 4.0 process that focuses on individuals and that are capable of dealing with enormous quantities of irregular and mutually exclusive information.

This site, Oberschoeneweide, is a proper location for this project. The existing industry heritage buildings create the very atmosphere of an ambitious renovation. When the bridge is finished, the public transport will be greatly improved here and it holds high possibility of becoming a new centre or subcentre in the city of Berlin.
