LG Electronics USA has unveiled the LG Life's Good Lounge at Vanderbilt University, a unique new campus space designed to support student life and community.
Located in the Sarratt Student Centre and equipped with state-of-the-art LG innovations, the 1,200-square-foot lounge provides students, faculty and staff with a place to study, relax, connect and collaborate – reflecting LG's "Life's Good" philosophy of creating positive, meaningful moments that bring people together.
The space is the first US extension of LG's "Another Campus" initiative, which has four university locations in South Korea.
Another Campus is LG's university engagement initiative to support the next generation by enhancing student life through spaces, technology, and programs that promote well-being, connection and personal growth.
LG Electronics North America president & CEO, Don Kwack, said Life's Good starts with creating positive experiences in everyday life.
"We hope the Life's Good Lounge provides Vanderbilt students with a welcoming space to gather, recharge and build meaningful connections, while supporting the vibrant campus community that makes the university such a special place," he said.
Vanderbilt Enterprises CEO, Markus Schreyer, said LG's presence at Vanderbilt is what a great collaboration should be: Students and faculty gain access to a global technology leader, and LG gains a deeper connection to the top-notch talent and innovation on campus.
"It's a relationship that we've built on shared investment—in Tennessee, in ideas and in each other's success. This is just the first step, and we're excited to expand this important relationship," Schreyer said.
In addition to experiencing the LG Life's Good Lounge for the first time, students had the opportunity to explore possible career paths and internship opportunities with the three LG Group companies in Tennessee and LG Electronics' North American headquarters in New Jersey.
LG executives also met with faculty and staff from the Vanderbilt School of Engineering to consider broader collaborations including potential research and workforce development opportunities.
