Hi everyone, I'm working on a definition of Coworking to make it easier to choose who to include in the map of coworking spaces in Belgium <http://coworkingbelgium.be/belgium-coworking-spaces-map>. I know it can be a controversial subject and I don't want to start a flamewar, but I would like to have your feedback on the basic elements to build this definition. I think it could also be helpful to make it easier to explain to our potential customers and journalists.
In my definition a Coworking space : - Calls itself a coworking space. - Has a fully dedicated espace for cowoking (not just a few hours or a cafeteria shared with patrons). - Treats coworkers as 1st class clients, not as a lesser kind to fill unused space. - Has somebody dedicated to connect the members (a facilitator, not an administrative asistant.) - Provides a non hostile and friendly environment that encourages collaboration and interaction. What do you think?
