Forum Karlín consists of several parts. The center of the complex is a multifunctional space for organizing musical, social and professional events. Part of the complex is the media newsroom of Economia Publishing House, located in the reconstructed premises of the historic building of the former boiler house. Another part is an office building offering offices with terraces and views of the surrounding area.
