Pre opening events
Mindaugas
we want to use series of events to recruit potential tenants that
would be like a reenactment of your life in the coworking space, e.g.
getting the hotel room or large cafe space for couple hours with wifi
and bringing 20 plus people with laptops to work on several tasks -
like design a website, write a code or make a logo for some NGO, the
new coworking space whatever.
Has anybody used soomething like that in order to generate interest
before opening?
thanks

panel of speakers to discuss a certain topic? Since you don't have a
space, I would find out who is the sought after speaker, in your area,
on a topic that would engage the audiences that you have in mind.
And then allow that speaker to do it in a public location, i.e.
library, museum, coffee house, etc.
Good Luck!

1. Ikea furniture building day - opened up an invitation for people to
come help build the furniture, offering beer and pizza and good tunes.
About 30 people came to help throughout the day. It was awesome. And
we gained 5 members that day.
2. 'Camps' in the empty space - before we moved in, we had a BarCamp
(EqualityCamp, actually) in the raw space. I asked loads of people
what they thought and what they would change/add/etc
I know that many other spaces, like Indy Hall and New Work City, etc.
have done Jelly's (which sounds much like what Mindaugas is asking
for):
Some were done in people's living rooms, some in coffee shops, some in
the spaces to be.

In Racó Nòmada we're preparing two days event about "coworking and the
city". Some speakers will talk about some interesting new job topics
and we'll organize some grouops of people to discuss new good
initiatives for the city (transports, young people, tecnology in the
local burocracy...) and then present that co-opinions to the city hall
(wich cooperate in that event).
