Cleveland State University
Monte Ahuja College of Business

The main lobby of the Monte Ahuja College of Business is a concise space with a lot of student and visitor traffic. In designing the space, we included a free-standing kiosk that is located opposite the elevators.

This unit contains an interactive monitor where the visitor can choose from three content rich presentations:

• An historic timeline featuring innovation in northeast Ohio from 1796 to the present

• CSU innovation learning tools available for entrepreneurs and educators, and

• Northeast Ohio innovation current events, with an emphasis on sustainability.
