Is your new business considering what your corporate headquarters should look like? Traditional office space? A co-working space? Something else? There are several reasons why co-working spaces are great for start-ups. First off, what are you giving up by choosing a traditional private office space? For one, access to the creativity, collaboration, and dynamic energy of the other individuals in the co-working environment. Other reasons to ponder:
Cost Effective: Reduced administration costs, time spent on facilities management, and capital expenditures. Spend that time, money, and energy focusing on the business at hand.
Enhanced Productivity: Co-working spaces are abuzz with entrepreneurs and like-minded, driven individuals striving to succeed. Your team can contribute to as well as feed off this energy. It’s a symbiotic relationship!
Community Building: Perhaps this point has the most potential for many different reasons –
- When you become part of a coworking community beyond the boundaries of just your team, you open up access to new sources for feedback, ideas, and collaboration.
- You have the opportunity to connect with other professionals with varied backgrounds, knowledge, and experience.
- You could be surrounded by a network of potential investors, partners, collaborators, and perhaps even mentors.
Location: Many coworking spaces such as 520 HUB are located in areas outside of city centers which can translate into shorter commutes for you and your team members, access to amenities such as cafes, gyms, and shopping, and often free parking.
Creative Environments: You’ll know it’s a good fit when you walk into a co-working space and it feels alive, energetic, and comfortable all at the same time. No one wants to walk into a sterile empty environment.
One day, your business may outgrow your co-working space. But for start-ups, it can be the ideal place to launch, grow, and thrive. If you think 520 HUB may be the right place for your start-up, give us a call. We’re happy to show you around and discuss options.
