Great talk. My business partner and I are starting a coworking community in Houston. We are building it around the community part and not the space. What you shared about the community helping businesses grow quicker is what we hope to achieve here.
Hey Vernetta, glad this helped! How is your space going in Houston after a year? If I did an update talk, what would you want to know about what radius has done since 2016?
Wonderful talk. We have created a co-working space and community building space within Taunton in England, we are passionate about creating friendships within the business, creating a space that is productive, open and used by the community.
It's been a year since you checked out this video. First, how are things going in your space!? Second, would you be interested in an update on what radius has done since we published this TEDTalk?
Hi Vivek ! WeWork operates in a different kind of market. I describe coworking as bifurcated into two markets: High Venture Capital & Scare Real Estate markets like those that WeWork goes into, and Low Venture Capital & Abundant Real Estate markets that local-community coworking spaces spring up in. WeWork is geared to be a service provider in huge volumes and to corporate clients in tier 1 major metros, Radius is geared to be a community and economic development tool in rebounding tier 2 and tier 3 cities. WeWork will never come to Erie, so Radius has a great opportunity to fill a very specific niche. p.s. Fun Fact: All WeWorks have their equipment shipped around the world and assembled by Logistics Plus, an Erie, PA company!
Coworking spaces don't compete with other coworking at this stage coworking compete with traditional office, coffe shops, library, etc. It's a workspace change before of everything.

CoWorking is collaboration, community and corporation

wework nicely capitalized on this megatrend
and failed ...
Can’t continue watching. Looking at the phone for his notes really off putting.
I don't think it was a good idea to use the phone to look at the notes. Really distracting to the point I struggled paying attention to anything else.
there are massive companies, like WeWork
what are the chances for smaller coworking spaces to sustain?
