Shared Space For Sydney Startups
July 1, 2008 4:35 am
Great news for Sydney startups, the Pollenizer guys are looking to create a shared working space where startups can come and rent desk space on a monthly basis. There will also be some space for casual drop-ins. The idea is to create an amazing space, with an energetic vibe, that’s got wifi and open tables for coworking as well as being close to cafes, of course
I spoke to Mick Liubinskas and he said that they’re doing this because they believe the time is right for a real space for start-ups. I couldn’t agree more.
They’ve taken a look at about 10 properties and have now shortlisted that down to 3 – one in Kent st (CBD), one in Barrack St (CBD) and one in Riley St (Surry Hills).
This Thursday (3rd July) at 4pm they’re holding a session to get people who are interested together to see one of the options and to talk about it.
You can checkout all the details, as well as some photos of one of the short-listed spaces, on Mick’s blog. Just looking at the pics gets me excited about what the space could become.
There’s something to be said for technology’s ability to remove the need for us to all work in offices, but there’s also something to be said for the inspiration and productivity that working along side like-minded people can generate.
2 thumbs up to Mick and Phil for organising this.
UPDATE: per Mick’s comment – this info session will now be held at 1 Barrack St – same day, same time
