Greetings all! Joining this group in a somewhat interesting role. I work for a major CRE services company (Jones Lang LaSalle) and work with a lot of small/growing/startup/tech companies. Myself and others in the company in the 'major' tech markets have been studying coworking models for several years and have been recommending them to clients regularly. We like the model so much we said- what if there were an easier way to get MORE coworking spaces into the marketplace? I am leading an experimental project that aims to be an online 'kickstarter' for shared/coworking workspaces. Essentially, we are creating a marketplace to bridge the 'traditional' office space market with the coworking/shared space marketplace by providing a platform for "normal" commercial space listings (read: stuff you find on a commercial space MLS that you have to lease the whole thing for a long time) to be re-packaged, showcased, priced, split, transacted and then subsequently run/managed as shared spaces/coworking spaces WITHOUT a master lease/sponsor. You can visit http://signup.hirises.co or follow @hiriseRE to find out when we'll be launching in your market. We're currently testing our marketplace in DC/Mid-Atlantic.
