Coworking Philosophy
What is Coworking?
Coworking is a way for independent professionals, entrepreneurs, freelancers, and people who would otherwise work autonomously from home or from a cafe, to reap the social and networking benefits of an office. Coworking aims to bring together the best elements of the office, cafe, salon, business incubator, and city street.
Often coworking spaces embrace broader social, environmental, and cultural challenges, where individuals with diverse backgrounds come together to collaborate and feed off each others' innovative energy. There are some amazing coworking spaces around the world, and we invite you to explore their websites and maybe even drop by if you are travelling outside the Montreal area. True to the nature of coworking spaces themselves, the global coworking community fosters open communication, collaboration, cooperation, and shared advice.
The Station C approach to coworking
Imagine working in an environment that facilitates productivity and working to you potential as an individual. Now picture being surrounded and supported by new and familiar faces who are just as energetic, creative, and hard-working. It is this community-oriented vibe that we hope to create every day at Station C. The people who come through our doors are the most valuable component or our organization - otherwise it's just dead space! We are always welcome to new drop-ins and members who can bring a unique specialization or perspective to the group.
Looking to connect with a web-designer? A graphic designer? Someone with excellent copy and communication skills? A great book review? Our space facilitates connecting with like-minded coworkers who have drive, initiative, talent, and imagination. Connections and new projects are never forced; they evolve organically through the collaborative spirit of other members who wish to pitch in.
Besides being a great resource for business and social networking, spending some time with us provides access to a brilliantly designed space. Our conference and meeting rooms provide a quiet and professional alternative to meeting clients at a home office or hectic cafe. From our custom made tables and comfortable chairs, to our espresso machine and the location of the building itself, Station C has been purposefully designed to catalyze and accelerate ideas, connections, and meaningful work. We believe that an inspirational and dynamic process manifests itself in truly innovative and purposeful results.
