Could you tell me what the name of your coworking facility is, your
location website address, contact information and the ethnicities and sex
of the owners?

We are compiling this data to form a national database. Please have all
information sent to:

Thank you

 To my knowledge there is not one.  Very few spaces identify themselves
 as such in their branding.  I can think of a few, and I can think of
 several whose owners are POC.  But a formal list covering th ewhole US I
 think does nto exist.

 If you make one, let me know, I would love to have a link to it from the
 Coworking Wiki.

 Cheers,

Re: [Coworking] Minority owned coworking spaces

2015-07-30 Thread Dawn Hayes
Hi Edward,

I believe you posted details of your request recently, but perhaps you
might post a new thread with your request for those who want to identify
themselves with some or all of the information you seek. You may also want
to post a Google form for folks to fill out in a way that you can parse.

Besides this list (which might be the best way to receive direct
information, since it is pretty active), consider checking with open data
sources like Socrata, Chambers of Commerce and the Small Business
Administration.

As for open data, someone may have already processed this information, so
check with your local civic tech resource?

I would be interested in visualizing a similar data set at some point, so
please link back with final results when possible.

Cheers,

-d

[Coworking] Re: Want to offer entrepreneurship classes at your space..?

 Hi all. 

 We've been offering home-grown entrepreneurship workshops (like this one: 
 http://www.theskillery.com/introduction-to-entrepreneurship/) at our 
 coworking space for most of the last year. I'm wondering if any of you 
 would like to offer this sort of workshop at your space, but maybe you 
 don't have the resources/time/etc. to pull it together... is that you? 

 If so, would you be willing to chat for a few minutes? Phone, Skype, or 
 even email? No sales pitch - promise. Just interested in learning from 
 other owner/operators who may be noodling this sort of thing. We'd love to 
 make the curriculum and course materials available for others to offer 
 within their communities… so we're interested in learning more. 

 Anyone willing to chat? If so, let me know! Many thanks, in advance. 
 -Matt

 Hi Glen, I can totally relate to what Tony wrote about costs and valuing a
 place. At Collective Agency, we started out with a no charge option, and
 that worked great until many unintented consequences happened.

 I'm very happy to rent out conference rooms for meetups and user groups.
 Members get 3 hours per day in conference rooms. Non-members pay. Event
 space rental is always paid, for up to 45 or up to 125 people, and only
 after hours.

 I do not think groups or boards or companies can be responsible for an
 event. I think individuals can be responsible. If one person isn't
 responsible for something, no one is responsible, is a belief I have. But
 individuals can work together, and responsible decisive responsive leaders,
 and setting assertive limits, and systems and processes, is the best.
