who is sponsoring coworking space

[Mindaugas]

hello again

can you share successful examples of direct or in kind sponsors of
coworking centers?
Is anyone giving you free coffee, furniture, subsidizing space or pays
for their logo on your doors?
Any IT company running free training to yout community so that you can
cash on attendance fees?
Any examples that we could follow?

thanks!

We have a local credit union that is sponsoring a boradroom (naming
rights) and we are working with a manufacturer/retailer to sponsor a
new HVAC system in exchange for three years of lead sponsorship of our
annual Green Innovation Week event.

this is history but we had:

* a national law firm hold monthly pro bono office hours for startups and provide a monthly SMB legal issues seminar

* Cisco hosted technology seminars and comped the use of Telepresence Unit for 30 days to enable a multipoint live seminar on Sustainability in the Built Environment and the future of work (in collaboration with Time Warner Telecom and us)

* a state agency focused on tech entrepreneurship and mentoring held twice weekly office hours with free consultations

* our local power company led building tours through our space to illustrate sustainable bldg practices in the workplace (we were in a LEED Gold certified bldg and had created a Green tour throughout our space illustrating materials, technologies and operations processes that contributed to the health/well being of the inhabitants and also reduced our operating expenses
