Co-Working Canandaigua Group Forming

Nov. 23, 2010 - PRLog -- I am Robert OBrien and I am organizing a co-working space in downtown Canandaigua.  Co-working is a new model for an office space for the independent contractor, free-lancer, and telecommuter.  The works space offers the traditional amenities of an office that many free-lancers may not enjoy working from home or other make-shift office spaces like cafes, or libraries.

In addition to great work space, Co-working provides community by gathering other independent creatives under one roof - stimulating creativity, collaboration, serendipity, productivity, and fun.  I envision an flexible workspace hosting formal and informal exchanges that creates a new community, precipitates new ideas, ignites passions, and encourages boldness.

About Co-Working Canandaigua:

I am creating a co-working office space. I am looking for 4 partners to help launch this venture. This is a start-up venture and your valuable input will get this off the ground.

To be successful, we need participation from co-workers who will pay rent. I believe that high usage of the space by co-workers will be based on the atmosphere and culture that the co-working space creates. I want to create a work environment that compels someone to leave the comfort of their home office on a cold nasty day because the co-working space is better than their lonely home office. I believe that the work environment will be dictated by those who will use it. This venture will be a combination of building community as well as managing office space. My partners will need to embrace this dual mission. As a partner, we will market our sense of community.

If you are interested in becoming a partner, please contact me.
