Japanese sportswear firm Asics has inaugurated its new Italian headquarters at Corso Alcide De Gasperi 57, in the Piedmontese city of Cuneo. Its previous Italian headquarters were located at Palazzo di Madonna dell’Olmo, also in Cuneo.

The new two-floor space is designed to encourage sociality, explained the company. There are no fixed workstations but common desks only to inspire the sharing and exchange of ideas. The location hosts employees working across the human resources, marketing, finance, sales, customer service, operations, IT and facility departments.
