Many of you might have read that „Loosecubes“ has shut down on Friday 16th of November 2012. I tried to contact Loosecubes for an explanation but did not get an answer. Venturebeat and techcrunch had similar responses. Now there is wide speculation why a company that allegedly raised a substantial amount of money in the […]

We are very happy to announce and support the first National unConference on Coworking and Work in Alessandria Italy on the 22/23 of September 2012. The organizers have invited more than 30 speakers for the two day event. If you register by tomorrow (31st of August 2012), you can still benefit from a 25% registration […]

A very lively and well organized Coworking Conference in Tokyo took place last week. Coworking in Japan is growing at a fast rate and the pictures on Flickr are a very good indicator for the potential and vibrant energy of Japanese Coworking. Congratulations to everybody who made this happen!!!

This is article number 522 and we are still hungry for more 😉 Talking about food, we hope we have give you a lot of „food for thought“ on coworking, and we like to continue to do so. This is not so much about our blog, but about what we can achieve together. That is […]

Wir freuen uns sehr neben unserem langjährigen Partner CLUBOFFICE einen weiteren Sponsor mit freiarbeiter.com für die Berichterstattung über Coworking gewinnen zu können. Das Unternehmen aus Karlsruhe bietet Kunden in Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz Unterstützung durch sogenannte virtuelle persönliche Assistenten (VPAs). Diese VPAs oder „freiarbeiter“ arbeiten zum Beispiel von Zuhause oder in einem Coworking Space. […]

Wir freuen uns im CoWorking Starter einen neuen Space in Berlin-Wedding ankündigen zu können. Der Club Dive soll im Sommer 2012 eröffnen. Es gibt bereits erste Bilder. Der Initiator Johannes Scherzer meint: „Der Kerngedanke ist das Netzwerken, Bilden und Erweitern von sozialen Kreisen durch das räumliche Zusammenarbeiten von Menschen, die sonst nicht einfach so zusammenfinden […]

After setting up a Facebook Group for „Free Coworking“ and formulating  some initial thoughts, it is time to promote actual „Free Coworking“ offers. The „Open International CoWorking Calendar„, that is now operating for a year, seems to me a very good tool to support this start. Based on the Google Calendar it is easy to […]

In line with our „Waste becomes Resource“ Campaign we like to give our support to the following statement of currently about 300 economists: “ We are economists who oppose ideological cleansing in the economics profession. Equally we oppose political cleansing in the vital debate over the causes and consequences of our current economic crisis.“  „We support […]

In July 2010, we were fascinated by the project „Plastiki„. A boat made out of 12,500 plastic bottles to make a change. The idea was to draw the attention to the plastic waste in our oceans.  The project received wide attention ( Oprah, NYTimes etc.)  and represents a benchmark in terms of creativity, team spirit and publicity […]

Die Gründung eines Coworking Spaces ist kein Selbstläufer, wie die Projekte Arbeitskommune (Berlin) und Cobüro (Freiburg) jetzt festgestellt haben. Die Projekte werden folglich nicht mehr im CoWorking Starter gelistet. Ich finde es wichtig, dass sie es versucht haben und möchte jeden ermuntern auf Basis aller Gründungserfahrungen (erfolgreich/nicht erfolgreich) eine eigene Gründung in Betracht zu ziehen. Den Sprung […]
