The Think Big Community
We launched the first Think Big Space in Virginia in 2019, and since then, we’ve expanded to over 100 spaces worldwide, including 54 STEM corners and 6 mobile spaces.
These labs are located in regions across the US, including Eastern Oregon and Central Ohio, as well as other cities globally throughout India, Ireland, Australia, Japan, Indonesia, South Korea, and Spain. Today, these out-of-the-box education spaces provide STEM education access to more than 96,000 students within the communities that they live.

Think Big Labs
Amazon Think Big Labs are specialist, Amazon-branded classrooms designed to support immersive STEM instruction within schools or community centers. Typically equipped to accommodate 30 students and 1 instructor, these spaces serve as structured environments where students can engage in focused, hands-on learning experiences.
Think Big Corners
Amazon Think Big Corners are dedicated, Amazon-branded spaces within classrooms or staff rooms in schools and community centers, designed specifically to house STEM materials and learning equipment. These corners serve as essential resource hubs that support hands-on STEM learning by ensuring tools and materials are readily available for educators and students.
Think Big Mobile Vans
Amazon Think Big Mobile Vans are dedicated, Amazon-branded vehicles such as buses, trucks, or vans, designed to take STEM materials and equipment into the community, with the optional capacity to accommodate students and an instructor for on-the-go instruction. These mobile units bring STEM learning opportunities directly to schools and community centers in underserved areas near Amazon data centers, overcoming barriers of access and infrastructure.
