to finally discover the MASTER CODE and win 1000 PLN!

 

 

REMEMBER TO UPDATE THE MY OLIVIA APP TO VERSION 2.3.0

iOS: 2.3.0 | ANDROID: 2.3.0

 

 

Meet the mysterious master of the OLIVIA QUEST game. He is not a good, innocent man. This is someone who makes a bet with another Mockingbird that NO ONE can solve his riddles. He arrogantly thinks that he can even put MONEY on the win, because his tasks are difficult enough that no one will win this money…

 

The Mystery Master officially plans to reward the one who gives the MASTER PASSWORD, and in the GRAND FINAL, the smartest, most efficient, most team-oriented, fastest, and at the same time – creatively beats other Players. The Final itself is not only an opportunity to get to know the Champion – it is also a Clear Determination of who is better – the Competitors or the Champion.

 

The way to the Final is simple – guess the MASTER CODE and enter it in the My Olivia app in “OLIVIA QUEST”. The Master will confirm in due course whether it is correct. The Master does not reveal how many words the password has, where it came from or what it is. But he doesn’t leave Contestants helpless either. He has left as many as 8 traces – tasks whose solutions are hints!

 

The more tasks you do, the more hints you will get and the easier it will be to come up with the final password. Where to look for these “traces – tasks”? How to get hints to the password? All you have to do is play, knowing the rules below!

 

  • To know the MASTER PASSWORD, you have to guess the WORD OF THE DAY. 
  • To find out the WORD OF THE DAY, simply take part in the Olivia Quest! Think, combine, look for clues, look carefully…. Each hint consists of three elements, and they are:

SCREENS in the elevators – they will never be explicit, they will never be direct, but they will help! One day – one screen hint;

THE STORY BOX IN OLIVIA STAR – each successive clue will require you to put your hand into the abyss of the Master’s chest and recognize the shape, which will also hint at something;;

RIDDLE/ REBUS – you will find it in a different Olivia building each time – but once located, it will be left there until the end of the Game! Of course, we will inform you on April 9, 10, 11, 16, 17, 18, 23 and 24 – on the mystery chest and in the My Olivia app, in which building this riddle is located! Its solution also brings you closer to the WORD OF THE DAY!

  • You can check the correctness of the WORD OF THE DAY in the My Olivia app. You click on OLIVIA QUEST, type in the WORD OF THE DAY and get feedback – BRAVE!/ TRY NEXT. You can keep trying until you do!!
  • Remember that you will be supported by our Superhero Arek Starek! If you see him, for example, on the screen, it means that it is worth paying attention to THIS screen!!
  • We present hints on April 9, 10, 11, 16, 17, 18, 23 and 24.

 

If you are already sure that you know the MASTER CODE – you can enter it in the My Olivia app in OLIVIA QUEST in the space ENTER MASTER CODE. Remember, you will only find out if you guessed*you just before the finale, which is April 24. The Grand Finale will be held on April 25, “live” at O4 Coworking.

Faculty of Law and Administration UG with Zero Stress green zone designed by Design Anatomy

Posted on by Katarzyna Halicka

The zone of concentration among the vegetation, which was created in one of the buildings of the University of Gdańsk, is the work of Design Anatomy – a studio that designs offices in Olivia Centre on a daily basis. The idea of creating a green zone came from the students themselves and was implemented as part of the Academic Participatory Budget. The synergy resulted in a one-of-a-kind chill-out zone.

 

The Zero Stress Zone was established in a secluded part of the building of the Faculty of Law and Administration of the University of Gdańsk. From the very beginning of the Faculty’s existence, this place was intended for a winter garden, but it was only as part of the cooperation with Olivia Centre that it gained the name of a real leisure zone. The project included the revitalization of green zones, the construction of new modular furniture, which allowed for the separation of a zone not only for in-depth learning among greenery, but also for the creation of a place for official and less obliging meetings. The architects took care of new lighting, separate relaxation, work and integration zones, as well as appropriate acoustics and improved the aesthetic values of the winter garden. As a result, the space has been optically enlarged, while maintaining its seclusion and user-friendliness.

 

As he points out, Ph.D. Małgorzata Balwicka – SzczyrbaProf. UG, Vice-Dean for The project was inspired by the spaces of Olivia Centre: As part of the neighbourhood visit, we had the opportunity to learn about interesting solutions that entrepreneurs are currently introducing to their office spaces. The changes indicate how workplaces are moving towards places of socialization, integration and cooperation. It was very inspiring for us and allowed us to entrust the changes at our Faculty to experts who perfectly sense the change in trends in the design of ultra-modern and friendly office spaces. The choice turned out to be exceptionally good – their knowledge also proved to be the preparation of unique places conducive to learning and integration of the student community. We hope for further cooperation with Olivia both in the area of interior design and in many other fields!

 

Moreover, as the Dean of the Faculty of Law and Administration of the University of Gdańsk emphasizes, Ph.D. Wojciech Zalewski Prof. UG cooperation with Olivia Centre is also important because a significant number of students of the faculty choose a career path not strictly related to the profession of judge, notary, legal counsel or advocate: About 60% of the students of our faculty continue their careers in business. Thanks to our cooperation with Olivia Centre, we want to emphasize our openness to the values of the business community.

 

I remember this space from my student days – recalls Bogusław Wieczorek, legal counsel and representative of the Management Board of Olivia Centre. I am glad that today I can support the cooperation between my Alma Mater and Olivia. I would like to congratulate the faculty authorities and the students themselves for thinking wisely and modernly about the place they use every day. Experience from the office market definitely proves that a well-designed space supports creative work, focus and moments of rest. Entrusting the project to an experienced team of architects, rather than a random one, is certainly a good choice.

 

The Zero Stress Zone is part of a broader, gradually implemented project at the Faculty of Law and Administration of the University of Gdańsk. The changes also include improving the aesthetics of a much larger part of the building. With the use of the work of prof. Grzegorz Klaman from the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk creates a passage of art and inspiration on the mezzanine, located above the Zero Stress zone. In its vicinity, in the place of the former smoking room, a modern art gallery was created, adapted for the organization of student meetings and discussions. There is also a sculpture by Igor Mitoraj.

 

This zone has always had potential and good energy ,” says Anna Branicka, lead architect at Design Anatomy. – Beautifully lit with natural light, filled with greenery, it was a natural, though unused, meeting place. All she needed was the right arrangement. Together with Olivia Centre, almost as part of the “neighbourly” cooperation, we offered assistance in the design and implementation of the ZERO STRESS zone. The fruit of our partnership is a charming, cozy corner wrapped in greenery, with warm, soft light, a place for integration and relaxation, with a view of the… Olivia Star! We hope that it will serve students and staff for many years to come. Creating biophilic zones in existing buildings is always a good investment.

In Olivia about the most important matters. Summit talks: women’s time.

Posted on by Katarzyna Halicka

On Friday, March 1, the spacious conference room on the 34th floor of Olivia Star was filled to the brim. They talked about extremely important issues – women’s equality, the chances for women to play an increasingly important role in politics, and effective ways to break through the so-called “women’s rights”. “glass ceiling”.

 

The debate entitled “Summit Talks – Women’s Time” was attended by the Minister for Civil Society Agnieszka Buczyńska, the Pomeranian Voivode Beata Rutkiewicz, the Mayor of Gdańsk Aleksandra Dulkiewicz, the Law and Justice MP Dorota Arciszewska-Mielewczyk and the Civic Coalition MP Agnieszka Pomaska. The event was hosted by press and radio journalist Magdalena Rigamonti, and the inaugural lecture was given by Prof. Ph.D. Witold M. Orłowski from the Vistula University, professor and director of the Business School of the Warsaw University of Technology, chief economic advisor at PwC Poland.

 

Mainly female politicians were invited to participate in the meeting, so the discussion focused primarily on this area. They were m.in. The topic of the “glass ceiling”, analysing what it is and whether it will be possible to break it, also discussed the issue of quotas.

 

In politics and professional life, the “glass ceiling” for women manifests itself in various ways, m.in. unequal opportunities for promotion, lower salaries compared to men in similar positions, lack of representation of women in key decision-making bodies, or the use of gender stereotypes in competence assessments and task assignment. To overcome this, it is necessary to take broad and conscious action for gender equality, promote women’s participation in the decision-making process, eliminate discrimination based on gender and ensure equal opportunities and opportunities for professional development for both sexes.

This is another meeting of the “Summit Talks” series. Earlier, Olivia Star talked about crises, i.e.
“Pandemic, war and what’s next?”
 and
the economic challenges of the modern world
.
