Jason, I live in Cape Town and am very interested in co-working spaces. It’s been almost a year since your comment above, have you managed to setup something?

I am really keen to set up something special in Cape Town, there is a magnitude of independent creatives or freelancers here and they will need a place to work, i feel a great need to fuse the working experience with lifestyle as well and would like to try and create a level where people could work meet eat and play!

Any comments on funding, investors interested ? What is the best way to financially set up a open office space that will also cater for the human daily need?

We've been coworking in Brighton, UK for 6 months now. It grew out of running Open coworking regularly until everybody just knew there was a space they could go to every Friday. We used the term Open rather than just saying it was free to try to encourage people to think about some of the ethos and values that under pin coworking, free implies no value. We now have open coworking every day of the week and ask for people to make a contribution either financial or an equivalent. One of the things that helped make it a success was the variety of people we have coming in, it isn't just dev's but everything from artists, writers through to web geeks. The richer the mix of people, the greater the benefit to all. I'm not keen on seeing spaces that are formed just around one skill set as the diversity makes for the opportunities and collaboration that we see happening.

hi,

we have just opened our doors to a coworking experiment in northern italy (milano) named cowo.

i’m happy to tell you that in two months we have filled up the place (5 workstations), and the thing seem to be spreading around.

we enjoy the company of developers, consultants, boat designers and novelists… (we are a creative advertising group).

something that i’d like to say about coworking – which is seldom mentioned – is that it works well in fighting oneliness not only for the coworkers who join, but for the hosting group as well.

btw, we’re also trying to create a small network of people interested (not necessarily from our country) through the cowo blog and a linkedin group.

ciao from italy,
max
