Daniel Fung (@RTcollector) took me (@hypercasey) to The Network Hub – a co-workspace in downtown Vancouver.
Similar to what we have at BootHK, The Network Hub is a 3,500-square feet space that has offices for start-ups as well as hot desks for shorter term work. CAN$5/HK$40 an hour or $30/$240 a day are the standard rates including WiFi and meeting space.
The space is awesome! Its huge and stylish and a perfect place to work in the heart of the downtown area which is also the epicenter for Vancouver’s start-ups scene. Coffee shops are all around and we hit up the Bean Around the World down the block which equates to a Palo Alto deal-making cafe.
They are on the Coworking Visa wiki with BootHK so that allows us 3 free days of workspace when visiting Vancouver. As Daniel and I are Vancouver natives we are both shocked and happy to see such a cool place set-up for start-ups.

I’m working with a couple of people to try to do something more similar to this in HK as well. More details as they emerge.
