Pleased to meet you Anamarie, Birmingham is my favorite city to hang out in, and a perfect place for a coworking space. I hate that I missed GCUC, it seems like it would have been very helpful and empowering. Was there anything in particular that you were able to take away and put into use immediately? I know there was a lot of amazing information given. I think the woman you were talking about is Angela Samuels and Visionary Meetings http://visionarymeetings.com/home/. She has a great concept for West Bloomfield directed toward woman and a space with onsite daycare. Seems like there's going to be a lot of options for people to get their work done in the near future, which is great. I'd love to have some kind of network together to allow our community members to experience other coworking communities, perhaps share resources and opportunities for our members to grow.
