Feel free to take a look at the Make a Space Kit, which we have been developing for several years which incorporates best practices from a variety of different space outcomes-- coworking, maker space, fab lab, project economy, etc. and leads through the formation and life cycle as a project plan. There are related templates for budget and cost structures.

I'm starting working on a bp for a non profit coworking. The target is set to aggregate professionals belonging to a Board, like engineers, architects, lawyers, etc. I'll keep you up to date, any hint and suggestion is warmly welcome since i've got no idea on how to start ;) first problem, how to lower down the cost for designing the spaces. I'm working on a module of about 500 square meters, thinking on how to "modularize" them to scale up to bigger surfaces once started. thanks in advance, Luca On Thursday, February 20, 2014 9:44:15 PM UTC+1, Jacob Sayles wrote: Luca, There hasn't been much movement on the open source coworking business plan but it's an idea I'd love to see get some traction!

I am reading some books, but I'd like your opinion, because you are directly confronted to a Business Model. Do you use a proper Business Model? If you want to share it with me, I will put my thesis online soon and we can build together a base for a Coworking Space's BM. Best, Kevin Ilardi **about me: My name is Kevin Ilardi, international student actually at Saxion University, Enschede, The Netherlands. I am based in Grenoble for 4 years ago now, and I am involved in the collaborative economy thanks to OuiShare community. I am writting my thesis about Business Model of Coworking Space (and FabLab) within a collaborative document because I am aware that I don't have all the knowledge, so share with you is more interesting.
