Today things are changing, and they have to, because of you.

We have always believed that we could change the way that young businesses grow, for the better. We started with what we believed was the most essential element for growing businesses, surrounding them with inspiration and other hard-working individuals. Over the last year we’ve helped entrepreneurs find and explore shared workspaces in 8 countries, and we’ve loved being able to promote the desk-hosting companies who proved to be both hospitable and entrepreneur-friendly.

However, you, fellow entrepreneurs and growing businesses, deserve so much more. You are working on projects that actively change and contribute to your surrounding economies, in so many ways. We’ve known from the very beginning that although our host partners do a fantastic job at making you feel comfortable, connected and keep you caffeinated… there’s still more than can and must be done as your business grows.

So as to let you focus on your growth, and your hosts to focus on their space, we’ve been preparing ourselves to step in and help get you more. More entrep-friendly packages on services and products. More exposure and networking opportunities. More ways to save time and money.

And now the time is right for us to take the steps we need to, so as to keep helping you get more. The first step is announcing our brand new name, that we believe better embodies the way we want to make you feel, no matter where you work, and on what. We want you to feel included, as part of a global network.

And on that note, we’re extremely excited to announce that we will be moving forward, for you, as included.co!

Over the next few weeks we’ll be posting about how the changes are so much more than just a new coat of digital paint.

P.S. – We’ve also popped open a new @includedco twitter account so do say hi.

P.P.S – a quick thank you to all the amazing people who help on the ground, as well as all the advisors and partners who believe in our vision for more connected ecosystems.
