What is Community?

Garage Society has been around for almost 7 months now...Happy 1/2 birthday to us! During this time I've seen lots of new faces join us and pass on through. It's great because most of the people that leave Garage Society are upgrading to their own office or returning back to their international company headquarters. So what happens with all the interactions between these people that make connections and build working relationships right in our co-work space?

2 Birthday

We've built a community! Webster's Dictionary describes community as: " A unified body of individuals as an interacting population of various kinds of individuals in a common location". Sounds just like Garage Society if you change a few choice words: "A unified body of entrepreneurs as an interacting population of various kinds of entrepreneurs in Garage Society". Even though people come and go, we take the co-work space, and office, relationships with us and, hopefully, build something great together. We've already had lots of collaborations happening in the co-work space! It starts to feel like a family and our team cares about each Garager as an individual.

Co-Work Space Community

Since I'm from America, November is the month of Thanksgiving, a time for us to reflect and appreciate all that we have. I'm so thankful to have a full co-work space with amazing entrepreneurs who are, mostly, willing to actively participate in our community! The whole point of events we have is to build a strong foundational network for everyone to benefit from. So far, the interactions have been great, and I'm happy to see people helping each other out. So dive right into our community! You never know who you could help, or who could help you :)! ~ EK

Garage Blog Maximising Productivity in Coworking Spaces: Tips and Tricks

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.

The appeal of coworking spaces is undeniable. They provide a cost-effective alternative to traditional offices, foster networking opportunities, and offer a vibrant atmosphere that can spark creativity and innovation.

However, with the myriad of distractions and the constant buzz of activity, maintaining productivity in these shared environments can be challenging.

So whether you're a freelancer, a remote worker, or part of a growing startup, these tips and tricks will help you harness the full potential of your coworking experience while keeping your productivity at its peak.
