Being an entrepreneur is all about playing by your own rules and doing things differently. As a founder and business leader it’s exciting to think that you get a chance to model your business in a reflection of your own personal beliefs and do what you love. Good ideas, coupled with purpose that turn into businesses can actually change the world for the better.
In the words of our Community Manager: "Garage Society would be insane if we had 10 Skott Taylors." And we mean that in the best possible way.
Skott is the Founder and Director of NewSeed, a creative consulting agency that cultivates exceptional service cultures through the use of classic and contemporary theatre skills.These innovative front-line training programmes are developed from his extensive performing arts experience which began from a young age, and an acting career that spans from his hometown in Canada to London, Beijing, and now Hong Kong.But theatre only touches the surface of Skott's interests, as he's also had a successful music career and dabbles in Jingju (Peking Opera) as well.We believe training a professional customer service team that knows how to own their role in front of a global audience is not only a differentiator, but a determinant for a business's viability in today's world.

Hong Kong has become a powerhouse for startups with a mission, fostering innovation that tackles urgent social and environmental issues. This vibrant city offers a unique ecosystem supporting entrepreneurs in building impactful businesses while providing access to vital government resources and funding.
With over a decade in Hong Kong's bustling coworking scene, I've witnessed firsthand the remarkable rise of shared office spaces in the city.
These dynamic spaces have revolutionised the way we work, offering a perfect blend of flexibility, community, and professional amenities.
According to a recent study by Coworking Resources, the number of coworking spaces worldwide is projected to reach a staggering 41,975 this year, marking a significant 42% increase from 2019 to 2024.
