Coworking: A Chance to Work from Downtown Santa Cruz

// August 13th, 2008 // Comments // Santa Cruz 2008

A new reason not to commute –

Check out today’s Santa Cruz Sentinel front page article “Startup gives freelancers, entrepreneurs a chance to work in downtown Santa Cruz” about NextSpace. NextSpace is a new downtown co-working space for freelancers, entrepreneurs and home office workers to work and cross paths at the proverbial coffee pot. Place like this are one of the reasons I love Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz can also be proud of Santa Cruz Next, the relatively new local organization committed to providing a fun, hip and diverse environment to discuss issues affecting the next generation of our community.

This is great press is just in time for tomorrow’s Freelance Camp in downtown Santa Cruz.

Jeremy and the boys at Nextspace were kind enough to offer to throw an after-party! And to top it off, one of our sponsors Eric Mendelson from Lighthouse bank managed to get Heineken to kick down and provide some beer. Talk about some sweet sponsors. Food and drink provided.

Walk directly across cooper street from the museum to the old bank building and you should hear the noise.

Sometimes, things line up well. Santa Cruz is going to have its very own coworking space, and that space is going to become available quite soon after freelance camp. Timing = perfect. We are proud to have them as a sponsor and can’t wait to see what happens with the space. They should have their rates and availability up soon. Hope to see you there.

NextSpace is a coworking space where Santa Cruz’s entrepreneurs, innovators, designers, developers, strategists, mentors, and investors can come together to catalyze the next generation of the Santa Cruz economy. Sure, all of these people have their own businesses to run, their own daily grinds to grind. But the beauty of a coworking space is the interaction, connections, collaboration, and serendipity that occur when a bunch of smart, talented, passionate people work in proximity to one another. We call it the NextSpace Effect. Just how strong is that effect? Join us and find out.
