From Cathy Dobson, Sarnia Journal.
Owners of a new downtown co-working operation say their immediate success is proof positive Sarnia is embracing the concept.
“We’ve proven very quickly there’s a huge need for spaces like this,” said Chris Misch.
He and business partner Scott Palko opened Collide co-working space Sept. 7 and were still making structural improvements to their Front Street offices when clients began knocking at the door.
Co-working spaces provide professional workstations with shared resources to freelancers, small business owners, start-ups and mompreneurs who want social interaction and a workplace outside the home.
Collide – a name meant to suggest the collision of bodies and ideas – offers open concept desks, fresh Blackwater coffee, WiFi, a lounge area, boardroom and washrooms. In the summer, the partners hope to set up a river view patio outside the front door.
It’s a place where networking is possible as well as independent work, said Palko. And it’s low cost.
