what is "Desk for a Day"?
We have partnered with local, independent business owners to provide entrepreneurs with beautiful and unique desk locations throughout the state. Each "Desk for a Day" location is available to rent and includes thoughtful amenities from the host business.
This program helps further our mission of building entrepreneurial ecosystems while supporting local business owners and providing really cool and convenient locations for entrepreneurs to work from.
As the desk renter, you have access to a dedicated, productive, well-appointed workstation inside of one of our partner businesses. All of our partners are chosen based on their spectacular locations and amenities, but more than anything we partner with business owners who see the value in working with people like you!
You'll meet wonderful people, work in incredible locations, and have a fun productive day.
