Co-working facilities to foster innovation
Thomas Mygdal famous quote at LIFT06 (“Easyjet had made more connected europeans than the European Union”) came to mind as I was reading a business week article about the “co-working facilities” blossoming around the world.
The concept is simple – fully equipped, flexible and affordable offices for the knowledge economy entrepreneurs – and it will probably have more positive impact on the economy than most traditional innovation encouragement initiatives. Will European governments take this opportunity to turn to a “hands-off approach to business incubation”?
