Our CoLab Orlando members have likely seen a new face in the hallways. It’s Brian Wilson, CoLab’s new community director. Brian has experience in coworking, having spent time at a coworking space in Portland, Ore., and he already plans to help grow our community.
Ask any successful entrepreneur or freelance worker, and they will tell you the most important element of small business ownership is networking with other like-minded business owners. Sharing ideas, getting feedback and even venting to someone who really gets what you are going through can make the difference between success or failure.
That’s where coworking comes in. Coworking is by nature social and collaborative. For as little as $75 a month, you can have a desk with high-speed Internet, access to a printer, access to a conference room, a real business address and even free coffee.
o-sponsor a Jelly (free, informal coworking open to the public) that meets every two weeks and rotates across 7 different coworking spaces in Prague.
Participate in a "Coworking in Prague visa program" (inspired by the international Coworking Visa) that allows members of any one of 5 coworking spaces in Prague use the other spaces for free for up to 25% of one's membership time.
Share a common website and Facebook group (please join it, we just started up) for promoting the idea of coworking and communicating options for coworking in Prague to the public and to the media.
