Coworking spaces in NC

September 2, 2010

I came across this blog post about coworking spaces in New York City recently. Co-working spaces are exactly what they sound like, shared work spaces. They are occupied by multiple companies so they can share resources. People can pay by the day or by the month and get internet access, office supplies, desks, chairs and access to conference rooms. Some offer mailing services as well. It’s ideal for start-ups and individuals working on their own. It saves money, encourages camaraderie and enables people with different professional backgrounds to solve problems. I was curious if there were any coworking spaces in NC and found several:

Carrboro Creative Coworking

Buena Space (located in Wilmington)

Lightbulb Coworking (located in Charlotte)

Surprisingly, there doesn’t appear to be a coworking space in Raleigh yet. This seems like a great idea for a local entrepreneur!
