Hi: My name is Steve King and I do research on small business and small business trends. We're starting to see "coworking like" facilitities cropping up outside of traditional office space environments. Two examples are:
1. Techshop (http://techshop.ws) which provides workshops and equipment for (from their website) "inventors, "makers", hackers, tinkerers, artists, roboteers, families, entrepreneurs, youth groups, FIRST robotic teams, arts and crafts enthusiasts, and anyone else who wants to be able to make things that they dream up but don't have the tools, space or skills." 2. The National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network (http:// www.nnin.org) which provides access to university nanotechnology labs primarily to small businesses and start-ups, although big businesses can also rent space. There are other examples, but these two are pretty representative. My question to the group is do you see this happening?? Also, do you think coworking concepts can be successful outside of office spaces?? Please let me know what you think.
