To give everyone more of an ideas of what it looks like
and feels like…here are examples from around the world

![Page 8: Hubs, Hives and Coworking West Coast USA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052618/554ad9b0b4c905a37c8b48a0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

We set out to create places that borrow from the best of a member's club, an innovation agency, a serviced office and a think-tank to create a very different kind of innovation environment. Places with all the tools and trimmings needed to grow and develop new ventures. Places to access experience, knowledge, finance and markets. And above all, places for experience and encounter, full of diverse people doing amazing things

![Page 17: Hubs, Hives and Coworking West Coast USA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052618/554ad9b0b4c905a37c8b48a0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Testimonial
"But what Green Spaces really offers is community. And that may be the most important piece of the green start-up puzzle. Because when your work space is connected to other work spaces in which like-minded souls are engaged in comparable endeavors and facing similar obstacles, you don't have to go it alone. You can share resources and ideas. You can network and connect. You can do a whole lot of very excellent things you might not do alone, and this can mean the difference between success and failure."
