NMK's Innovation Labs at the University of Westminster's Harrow campus provide affordable managed workspace, communications infrastructure and business support to creative and technology start-ups.

NMK Innovation Labs offer a range of spaces - from 6 square metres to 200 square metres - under flexible licence agreements.

Studios are often available at short notice, and payment for space is via a simple monthly charge which can include: telephones, web access, conference room and other services.

With their low prices and no long-term tenancy contracts (the notice period can be as little as one month), the labs are ideal for start-ups and small companies.

Current tenants include graphic design and digital marketing agencies, e-commerce companies and software developers. Some tenants work closely with their neighbours, taking advantage of the campus atmosphere and proximity of like-minded companies and professionals to collaborate on specific projects.

The Labs are situated on campus at the University of Westminster's Harrow site in North-West London.
