Welcome to the Converge Coworking Meetup Page

Converge is NJ's first coworking space and the first to be associated with a University (Kean University).

Coworking is a shared and office-like workspace for small businesses, entrepreneurs, freelancers, and professionals of all types. It's an effective alternative to a traditional office and much better than working in a coffee shop. It's the best of both and an excellent resource for independents.

Coworking is more than just a desk for rent, it's values and philosophy are what make these places unique. These values are Collaboration (sharing your knowledge and experiences with others), Community (mutual support for each other’s work), and Accessibility (financially and physically accessible resources). These concepts come together to make coworking a vlauable and enriching experience for all of it's member.

Converge is growing community for anyone who works independently from a computer.

The only requirements are a laptop, a great attitude, and some work to do. That's all you need to join. So don't procrastinate.

If you see yourself needing a coworking space or just curious and want to give it a try sign up for our next meetup and pay us a visit.
