Coworking turns 13 next Thursday. Celebrate with a Coworking Day event!
When coworking started in a wellness center in 2005, it wasn’t a big deal at first—founder Brad Neuberg reports that no one showed up for the first two months. Still, he soldiered on, inspiring others to build the first coworking spaces that look like the ones we see today, and giving permission for anyone anywhere to use the word “coworking.” That’s why it’s a household word today!
To celebrate coworking’s 13th anniversary on August 9, members and managers of shared spaces around the world have a chance to celebrate the story behind what makes coworking special—on a global scale, and on a local scale—by hosting open gatherings in their spaces or elsewhere.
If you’d like to see examples of events happening in other cities and organize your own, learn more and add an event here:
Events already posted in Azumino-shi, Berlin, Cedar Park, Herrenberg, Kansas City, Mumbai, Reutlingen, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, and Stuttgart!

I’m blown away by the responses we’ve been getting so far. Just on the coworking.org site alone, we’ve got 34 entries from groups in Austin, Azumino-shi, Berlin, Canton, Cedar Park, Denison, Herrenberg, Johnson City, Kansas City, Lagos, Melbourne, Mumbai, Oakville, Palo Alto, Papeete, Pattaya, Reutlingen, San Diego, San Francisco, Santanyí, Seattle, Stuttgart, Tuebingen, Tysons, Vancouver, and Zurich!
I should also mention: celebrating Coworking Day can be a very very simple thing. Susan at Office Nomads leads a traditional bowling night, which is little more than picking a location and time.
