Why Startups Come to Shared Workspaces
Small businesses, entrepreneurs, and remote workers initially come to shared workspaces for a variety of reasons. Some are tired of fighting for space and dealing with the noise of their local coffee shop. Others have been working from home and find it hard to be productive there. Many look to the cost-effectiveness of the shared amenities, and find it to be a more affordable solution than renting their own office.
The True Value of Coworking
All of those are great reasons to come to a place like Shift Workspaces, but none of them are the reasons that people stay. The true value of locating in a shared workspace is the community itself.
Our members find that having a community of inspired and ambitious co-workers around them is the single greatest benefit of a shared workspace for many reasons:
- Opportunities to collaborate on projects Contractors and freelancers are easy to connect with Lead sharing Problem solving Brainstorming with other business owners Access to fellow founders and entrepreneurs Social gatherings Intern and employee sharing
Shared Workspaces: Innovative Opportunities
There are many new ways of working coming about thanks to the unique opportunities that shared workspaces provide. Some companies in shared workspaces will share an intern (twice the experience!) or multiple businesses may use the same contractor for similar work. When some of our members have new ideas or problems to solve, they’ll discuss with others in the space who have had experience in the area.
