How To Locate the Event Space
- Capital Factory is in the OMNI building at the intersection of 7th Street and Brazos St. The building has entrances on 3 streets (7th St, Brazos St and 8th St). You can enter from any street. Do not be surprised to see a hotel inside the building. The elevators are in the middle of the lobby.
- The elevators may be confusing for first-timers. Each elevator is marked by an alphabet (A-F) that sticks above the corresponding elevator. Each elevator also has a touch panel to select the floor. Just select the 16th floor on any touch panel and it will show on the panel which elevator (A/B/C, etc.) is ready to go up to that floor. Just walk in to that elevator and get off where the doors open which will be the 16th floor.
- The ACL room is the first event room to your right once you enter the 16th floor.
- Feel free to walk in at any time during the event. We understand that people are busy and may not be able to make it to the events in time.
- If in doubt, always ask the people at the front desk (on any floor) for help.
