Hi Wilson,
great to hear that you open a space in Dublin, love the city, surley
will visit your next time I am there.
Here a some things we do to encourage collaboration.
- coworker meetups: once a month where coworkers can bring in their
ideas and projects for the space - informal, like dinner
Hey Catharine,
I saw your post on the Google group and wanted to reply. I am the

been open for two months and are based in South Etobicoke and serving

Thilo is on the money, and I like to look at it from an 'environmental'
perspective. Not like the earth's environment, but what in terms of how you
can influence behavior by changing the variables of the environment.
Think of it this way: it may be your goal to encourage collaboration, but
Also, I wrote an essay recently that takes this idea of relationship work
and expands a bit more:

I think they key takeaway that's relevant in this conversation is this one:
Business is an overlay for social interactions,
I agree 100% with Thilo and Alex on collaboration, but I also think this
extends to getting new members if you are a newer space like us.
We initially started having brainstorming sessions with pizza and wine on
Thursday nights and a weekly wind down on Fridays on our deck to get all the

And let's not forget about retention! Who cares how many members you have if

Great! Its US just because it's here in the US :). Look forward to meeting you

I'm really hoping you all will share the learnings with the group.

Yes retention is easy to overlook, but keeping people engaged is definitely
important. Who wants high turnover rates for coworkers? Not us! :)

Hey everyone,
As much as I like emailing back and forth, I was curious if anyone has put
together a Twitter list with everyone who is active in this group...or if there
is any interest in it? I think for some topics, it would be a bit more
efficient and personal.
Cheers,

It's been done a buncha times, by different people, and it's rarely
maintained well or at all.

Hi-
I apologize if this is a duplicate question, but I couldn't find any archives
on the group which answered my question.
Does anyone have success with setting up multi point video conferencing?
Ideally I'd like to have a system that can work with other types of systems
rather than only a

sometimes I orchestrate situations that REQUIRE people to socialize.
This is a little different from collaboration but I think you have

which could be good for a conference room.

I recently set up a Bigbluebutton conferencing server for a client and it
