Columbus Coworking Meetup
Wednesday November 14, 2007
from
6:00pm -
7:30pm
Do you work from home, or out of a cafe? Are you tired of trying to teleconference from Panera during the lunch rush? Stealing Wi-fi from the public library?
'Coworking' is a concept that's catching on nationally, and the concept is pretty simple: like-minded, responsible professionals establish a shared work-space (for low per-tenant monthly fees) and enjoy some of the following benefits:
* Easier separation of work/home life
* Quieter (and in many ways cheaper) than working out of a cafe
* Motivating energy from your peers, without the hassle of a boss!
* Shared infrastructure (printing, faxing, shipping)
Of course, that's just the start.
A handful of us are interested in starting a space in Columbus and we'd like to get a sense for how great the interest is. If you think you'd make use of such a space, then we want to hear from you! And meet you!
Getting involved now will give you the ability to influence such decisions as:
* Location ~ where in the city would be most convenient for you?
* Amenities ~ Kitchen? Bike-rack? Parking? Projector?
* Size, shape and decor — everything's wide open at this point.
So—whatever your level of interest (volunteer, space owner or merely a dedicated tenant)—now is a great time to begin the discussion. If interest is great, then things will move fast.
