FIVR has been building a developer hub network since 2016 that currently reaches Helsinki, Turku and Tampere. The FIVR hubspaces act as local centers of VR/AR development and provide local developers and artists an access to this rapidly changing technological scene. FIVR offers a free shared work space and equipment for groups and companies in their early phase of Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality or Mixed Reality development.
Use of the hub space and its equipment is free through an application process for all FIVR members. Using the space and its equipment does not cost anything or bind the team in any way. All work and rights to it stay within the developing team.
