An open space

By internet

Can serve

During

Emergencies

Fostering

Good conversations

Held in surprising

Intimacy

Just because our

Kind faces

Linger at the screen

Making that

Nearby feeling.

Optimally a

Platform like

Qiqo is a

Resource

Suited

To

Underpin a

Very

Welcoming

Xperience if

You so

deZire.
