Congratulations on getting started, Imran! Sounds like you all have captured a great opportunity for a new coworking space. It is exciting to hear how everyone is coming to coworking in different ways with their own unique stories. Make sure to try and get your story over to the guys as notanmba - they're collecting stories on coworking and are doing a great job! You can check out their blog here - http://notanmba.com/blog/. Very cool! Keep up the good work and make sure to keep everyone updated on your progress by posting to the coworking blog.
