Steelcase Turns 100

The international manufacturer of office furniture, Steelcase, celebrates its centennial this year. They began in 1912 as The Metal Office Furniture Co. in Grand Rapids, MI. To mark the occasion, they created a cool short film about the future. On their Facebook page, they gathered 100 children from around the world and 100 brilliant minds from enterprise and asked them what the new century may look and feel like.

Core77 wrote an interesting article about how Steelcase started. In addition, GOOD interviewed CEO Jim Hacket, IDSA where he suggested five big insights that could have value at an iconic company or a hungry startup.
