Free Co-working days, San Jose...

Player, don't hate. San Jose is awesome. It's just... misunderstood.

To prove it, we're having a pop-up co-working space powered by NextSpace.

We'll have coffee and coworking in the day time, and retail and beer at night in a long vacant space that we're occupying for 48 hours. AND we're doing it in conjunction with City Hall - who says you gotta fight 'em?

Coworking from 9 - 4 both days powered by NextSpace.
Pop Up retail from 5 - 10 both days powered by San Jose Made


Special What'sNEXT Lunches: Grab your lunch from one of the Moveable Feast Trucks and then come in and check out:
• March 21: Pek Pongpaet : Lessons learned in building the Pinstagram app in two days
• March 22: TaeWoo Kim / Richard Converse / Spencer Yanaga: Marketing TriFecta : Inbound / SEO / PPC

Here's the official deets:

Councilmember Sam Liccardo is hosting Start Up San Jose, a specialty pop up installation. Working with NextSpace and San Jose Made, the vacant space will be programmed for two days with local entrepreneurs. Drop by during the day to co-work, enjoy specialty drinks by Barefoot Coffee or lunch by Moveable Feast. Come again in the evening to shop for locally made crafts by San Jose Made, drinks by San Jose Beer Walks and food by Moveable Feast. Through creative partnerships, Start Up San Jose is creating a model for encouraging innovative start-ups, studios and retailers to start up shop in San Jose

    Met interesting people, nice venue and great to have lots of lunch and dinner options nearby. Bandwidth was frequently poor but San Jose's IT guy was on it pretty fast and eventually found solutions with more access points. Overall a good experience!

    The Second St and Santa Clara St tram station is right in front of this workspace. Rather convenient :-)

    Quiet in here this morning, Friday, with only a couple of us working on projects but we have the city's IT guy here and bandwidth is 8 down, 6 up, 4 ms ping, very good.

    What's a good place to park around there? Are there going to be more events like these?

    Dates for this event are listed as Friday March 22 - Friday March 29. I'm guessing that's a typo? Shows up a lot in my calendar ;-)

    I'm normally too busy with projects to attend something like this, but I'm healing from a wrist injury so it's time to leave my cave for a bit. I'm a jack of all trades Web Developer with passable Linux skills, but strongest in PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS
