Solstice, a digital innovation firm that helps Fortune 500 companies seize new opportunities through digital solutions, announced a major expansion of its North American headquarters to a 60,000-square-foot space in the West Loop. The move was prompted as a result of sustained growth across all areas of Solstice’s business including building mobile, connected, conversational, cloud-native, and AI-powered digital experiences for the enterprise. In 2017, Solstice hired over 150 employees and is now on track to exceed that pace in 2018. After a thorough search within the city of Chicago, the firm chose to stay in the Gogo Building at 111 N. Canal and now occupies the entire 7th floor, double that of its previous suite. Solstice’s new office provides an enhanced backdrop for The Solstice Experience, an interactive and immersive journey through the latest in emerging technology built by Solstice Labs. Visitors are invited to see, touch, and interact with Solstice’s latest emerging technology experiences — think a human blockchain experiment and an AI experience that combines facial recognition with sentiment analysis — all of which debuted at its annual digital innovation summit, Solstice FWD.
