Dalla mattina fino alla sera alla 21: al Cowo Pontetaro/Parma presso Coworking open day al Cowo Pontetaro/Parma

C-Lab le visite dell’open day si sono susseguite per tutto il giorno… evento pienamente riuscito quindi!

In particolare i punti di soddisfazione sono stati:

  • l’alta affluenza che traduciamo in un vivo interesse verso i nostri spazi e verso il coworking;
  • l’ottima occasione di rivedere contatti e clienti di vecchia data, “richiamati” dalla novità del coworking
  • l’incontro, piacevole e stimolanti con nuove figure di riferimento, sia per il coworking e sia per il nostro lavoro
  • il gradimento che hanno dimostrato tutti verso i nostri spazi di coworking, che ci ha molto gratificato!
  • la gara ad accaparrarsi le spilline Cowo®, andate letteralmente a ruba!

coworking-parma-pontetaro-3Una curiosità: alcuni partecipanti sono passati con i loro figli, questo ci ha fatto non solo molto piacere ma ha contribuito a rendere più divertente l’atmosfera generale.

Insomma: a Pontetaro sono rimasti così entusiasti che stanno già pensando al prossimo evento.

Stay tuned e arrivederci alla prossima!

Coworking Europe Milano

As an active coworking community of more than 100 spaces all over Italy, with a spot in Switzerland as well, we are happy to announce that this year the Europe of coworking meets in Italy 🙂

We’re talking about the next Coworking Europe Conference, which will take place in Milan – the city where our network started in 2008 – with one of the first coworking spaces in Europe.

After Berlin, Paris, Barcelona and Lisbon, you could very well expect the most important coworking happening of Europe, the Coworking Europe conference, to finally land in Italy, and particularly in Milan, with the partnership of the city council.

The conference will take place in the new coworking space “Ex-Ansaldo” in via Tortona 54.Ex Ansaldo a Milano, spazio coworking

The conference programme has not been released yet, so keep in touch for further details.

For now, just save the dates of November 11 – 12 – 13, 2015.

We are happy and thrilled to announce the first Cowo® coworking space in Switzerland, thanks to Mendrisio’s fastERA company. Things happen because of people.

Coworking Svizzera: la rete CowoWe are happy and thrilled to announce the first Cowo® coworking space in Switzerland, thanks to Mendrisio’s fastERA company.

Things happen because of people.

If we are able to announce Cowo®’s first coworking space in Switzerland, we owe it to the people at fastERA, who decided to join the Cowo® network with their Swiss branch, after having joined us twice, with their Milan offices (Cowo Milano/Fara) and their Varese location (Cowo® Varese/Piave).

Isn’t this what the Cowo® Manifesto says, point no. 8?

Coworking enjoys the best marketing strategy: happiness“.Coworking in Svizzera: la Rete Cowo a Mendrisio, presso Fastera

In other words… no marketing plan will ever beat the enthusiasm of a happy coworking community with a strong sense of belonging!

We could even say that this approach is now making our project… go international.

We feel that the Cowo® concept has no geographic boundaries.
To see it cross borders makes us very proud, and more responsible, too.

Coworking in Svizzera: la Rete Cowo a MendrisioBeing in a country different from our own – namely Switzerland – brings us some new responsibilities.

It means to explore and understand all specific, national aspects of the project, to begin with.

We have met this challenge knowing how essential it is, for a coworking space, to build its development and future success on good fundamentals.

First of all, the legal point of view.

In this regard, we want toCoworking Cowo Mendrisio Svizzera: sala riunioni thank the lawyers that studied the Swiss laws in order to put us in the position to offer coworking services complying with local laws and regulations.

None of this could have been done without you, guys!

And now: welcome to Switzerland, in the Cowo® Mendrisio/San Martino coworking space, now available for the local coworking community.

Coworking Cowo Mendrisio SvizzeraThe new Cowo® Mendrisio/San Martino will meet all your needs: first of all, it’s super-easy to reach (you’ll find it right next to Foxtown).

Then, once you’re there, you’ll be able to enjoy the widest range of services.

From the outbound telephone line to the fully serviced workstation and the comfortable kitchen at your disposal, the Mendrisio Cowo® coworking space is a fine start for our Coworking in Svizzera: la Rete Cowo a Mendrisionetwork in Switzerland.

A big “thank you” to the fastERA managers for choosing Cowo®, and all the best to the new coworking community… made in Switzerland!

Coworking Cowo a Milano (Login)Having already discussed our Cowo® Manifesto, today we get deeper on point no.5::

In our model, relationships comes first, profit comes second.

Since it was born in 2008, the Cowo® network has always had a staple in activating coworking spaces inside companies and professional places.

In other words, all Cowo® spaces have their location at a company, a studio, a professional loacation.

The space fixed costs are already included in professional activity, this way  the coworking activity is not bound to making profits at all costs.

The overheads are paid already by the main activity.

We envisioned this approach for two reasons:

1 – The coworking business model is far from being identified

2 – By not having to meet the overhead costs involved in having a space, we can enjoy the freedom to develop the coworking community without the obsession of  making profit 

This does not mean that Cowo® ignores the importance of economic resources.

It means – vice versa – looking for a way to generate economic resources through relationship maximization, andnot profit maximization.

Value is generated by the people, not invoices 🙂

Below, you can browse the CowoCamp 2012 opening presentation, focusing of the CowoEconomy, something that comes out from our profit-comes-second substainable model 🙂

Regarding the CowoManifesto, here are the posts we published already:

No. 1: Coworking is just a word. Only people give it meaning.

No. 2: We make work a better experience through space/knowledge sharing, every day

No. 3: Coworkers are not clients. They are professionals working with you.

No. 4: We are part of a larger community, both physical and online, and we speak to each other.

No. 10: “Coworking is a labour of love” (Tara Hunt)

The Cowo Manifesto is available in several languages: Italian, French, Spanish,  Dutch and Russian.

In the English version:

COWO® MANIFESTO

  1. Coworking is just a word. Only people give it meaning.
  2. We make work a better experience through space/knowledge sharing, every day.
  3. Coworkers are not clients. They are professionals working with you.
  4. We are part of a larger community, both physical and online, and we speak to each other.
  5. In our model, relationships come first, profit comes second.
  6. Our professional skills are constantly enriched by our community.
  7. We don’t believe in competition. This makes us highly competitive.
  8. Coworking enjoys the best marketing strategy: happiness.
  9. Coworking is always the beginning of something.
  10. “Coworking is a labour of love”. (Tara Hunt)

Cowo è una community allargata - Cowo Manifesto Punto 4

The greatest thing about coworking is that you’re never alone.

This is the basis of  each and every Cowo space, as well as of the whole coworking ecosystem.

And if you’re wondering what this “coworking ecosystem” is, all you have to do is to participate to our CowoCamps, o to join us in one of the several coworking events – some of them are even organized by the public administration. You’ll soon find out that there is a great number of people – and a diverse one – together with an incredible amount of information and several ways of communicating things, actions, initiatives.
An ecosystem, as we said.

As it often happens in this kind of environment, people meet, exchange information, build relationships.

Since the beginning, in 2008, Cowo has always been very active in the relationship building area, positive ones, based on actual sustainability: this kind of approach ended up being a key aspect of our “everyday philosophy”: Cowo Manifesto, 10 key points that explain what coworking means to us.

Number 4 says:

We are part of a larger community, both physical and online, and we speak to each other.

This is not a secondary aspect: it implies an open and sharing attitude.

For instance, we try to share our growing knowledge on coworking as much as we can: we publish presentations on SlideShare (more than 60, in both English and Italian), videos on our YouTube channel (about 50), photos on Flickr (more than 1,000!).

About Cowo Manifesto: here’s the post dedicated to rule number 1 “Coworking is just a word. Only people give it meaning”, one on no.2 “We make work a better experience through space/knowledge sharing, every day” and one on rule no. 10, “Coworking is a labour of love”.

Reminder – Cowo Manifesto is available in several languages: ItalianFrenchSpanish, Dutch and Russian.

In this post we want to talk about relationships and language.

Basically, we want to point out that the coworker is not a client – even if s/he may look like one, since he’s paying a fee to use the space.

A coworker is much more: a professional that is part of our network.

So we like to say it again and again:

Coworkers are not customers. Coworkers are professionals working with you

(Cowo Manifesto – number 3) 

Al coworking non ci sono clienti

It is also a matter of language: the words you use imply a way of thinking, an attitude, even a certain behavior.

In a coworking, relationships form an open system, that includes collaboration, networking and – why not –  cheerfulness.
