Founded in 2009, Uber has transformed the way the world moves through its pioneering ride-hailing platform, and has since expanded into food delivery, freight, and mobility services on a global scale. Operating in over 70 countries, Uber is widely regarded as one of the most disruptive and innovative technology companies of the last decade, reshaping urban transport and connectivity. Uber’s London office is one of the company’s flagship European locations, designed to reflect its culture of innovation, collaboration, and forward-thinking. As part of its ongoing workplace strategy, Uber sought to implement new digital solutions that would act as both functional collaboration tools and architectural statements, enhancing the overall employee and visitor experience. With a strong focus on digital-first experiences, Uber’s workplaces are designed to embody the same values of speed, innovation, and connectivity that define its platform
Uber required a solution that could deliver large-scale digital displays to support communication and collaboration across their London HQ and presentations. Seamless integration was another key driver for the project, with solutions required to blend into the existing workplace environment from both an aesthetic and acoustic perspective. The installation needed to be carried out with minimal disruption to daily operations, ensuring the office could continue to function without interruption. Above all, the solution had to provide a turnkey, future-ready platform fully aligned with Uber’s rigorous global technology standards
To meet these requirements, Urben designed and deployed two of its signature Media Walls, featuring LG LED displays, which deliver both scale and impact through a fully integrated, turnkey solution. The installation included a 136” Media Wall, creating a striking focal point for everyday communication, and a dual 136” Media Wall (272”), offering an immersive, cinematic digital experience for larger gatherings and internal digital signage. To ensure the displays complemented the workplace environment, acoustic panels were thoughtfully integrated, enhancing both the visual design and sound performance of the space.
Leveraging Urben’s precision-engineered approach, the entire project was completed within just four days, enabling Uber to realise immediate value with minimal disruption to its operations. The installation of Urben’s Media Walls has had an immediate and positive impact on Uber’s London workplace. The displays now serve as digital centrepieces, providing a powerful platform for communication, collaboration, and engagement. They have elevated the office’s functionality, supporting everything from team presentations to large-scale events, while also enhancing the overall aesthetic through the integration of acoustic design elements. By combining scale, reliability, and refined design, the Media Walls deliver a future-proof solution that aligns seamlessly with Uber’s global workplace standards and reflects the company’s dynamic, innovative culture.
