[Coworking] Re: How to colaborate with other coworking spaces?

[NODO Cowork]

Also, I started having like a aliance with other spaces in mexico. So if 
you work from NODO you can go to some other places to work also. But this 
is not really like making community but like building a service with a 
plus. I am interested in starting collaborating between coworkers from here 
with coworkers from any other part of the world. This is also a 
collaboration between spaces. I am sure that somebody has come up with this 
before but what we were thinking about is, we are having this event with 
programers and internet and web and all that. It is a coworking fun day and 
end up with short internet talks and after that a networking event. I would 
like to invite somebody of a coworking space anywere in the world that 
wants to talk about any subject related to web/collaboration/technology for 
us on that day. Have you ever done something like this before? I know that 
the community in Merida wants to listen to what is going on in Australia, 
United States, Japan. what is their point of view on different 
subjects? We are willing to start this local and external colaboration but 
I don´t know how to approach (specially the local ones)...

Any guidance here? 

Thanks in advance TAM TAM

[Steve Bercy]

Hi guys, 

I live in Martinique (French West Indies) in the caribbean. I arrived here 
3 years ago (from Paris) and people didn't know anything about 
"coworking"...today, everything has changed.  
My needs when I arrived was to meet people, not being alone like an hermit 
because it was detrimental to my momentum (build my startup).
I realized that many local people needed this also so I've launched the 
Jelly...to build the community, start the ecosystem. 
The www.martiniqueworkatjelly.com is a monthly coworking session in my 
house, I invite (free wifi, coffee, etc.) every single 
enterprising/entrepreneur people to come to work, to discuss, to exchange 
and to challenge their projects, idea, startups, companies. After 2 years, 
the community is impressive (15~20 attendees each month, 300+ subscribers 
for the monthly email invitations, 40% retention rate).
88% of the martinicans entreprises are sole entrepreneur businesses so they 
quickly understood the aim of coworking...as soon as they came to see what 
it was. 
I mean you can talk a lot about it (and hope it will sound to their 
brain)...but you could invite them to see what you do or go to show them by 
organizing meetups. This way they will live "the thing" from inside. 

I think you'll be inspired by reading the posts written by Alex : 
http://dangerouslyawesome.com/

Let's share about our experiences :) 

ps : have a look to copass.org

[Coworking] Re: How to colaborate with other coworking spaces?

[Jeannine]

Well, hi there!

I think you are certainly in the right place.

For your local collaboration with the other coworking space, I would myself 
probably just go over there and say hi.  I am casual like that.  It is my 
experience that you can tell pretty quickly if it is going to click; and if 
it is not I have always just left the door open for them to contact me in 
future.  Sometimes people start ou tone way and go a different direction 
later and I have certainly been pleasantly surprised by having folks that 
didn't click at forst, become allies later.
  
If you woudl like to be the Wiki Associate for Yucatan, or the Partner for 
Mexico, it just so happens that we do not have one. :-)  This would give 
you something to talk about and to build your community around, as well as 
the support of Open Coworking.  Signup is here 

 
if you are interested.

For connections and development and so on, we do have a list on the WIki of 
coworking 
mentors and another 
one here  you 
might want to check out.  (And the rest of you might like to add yourselves 
if you feel inspired),  I would start there.

And don't hesitate to call on me if you need anything else, this email 
address or Jeannine @ Opencoworking.org

Cheers,

Jeannine

Hi, Tamara,

Got your signup and my thanks to you, look for an email from me making an 
offer you cannot refuse about volunteering. :-)

I am showing you as admitted to the Wiki; if you never got an email from PB 
Works with your password (possibly it landed in the spambox, that does 
happen) then you should go to the Wiki, put in your email address, and hit 
the "forgot password"  button.  PB WOrks will send you a new one and you 
can log in with it.

Cheers, and looking forward to working with you!

Jeannine
