Things are moving ahead quickly at the hive. We are on track to open our doors on Monday, February 2, 2009!
Special thanks go to the entire Beehive community, who have helped make this possible by proving the interest.
Also, Newt Fowler has been instrumental since day one of the Beehive effort. Newt has served as our attorney and advisor, traveling with me to Philadelphia to visit our friends at Indy Hall — whose ideas we’ve ripped off liberally — and has also handled all of the legal work (gratis) required to get Beehive off the ground, and along with me and my business partner Stephen Muirhead has supplied a modest amount of startup capital. Newt’s been a visionary in the community for years, and though he looks a little different from us tech entrepreneurs and designers, he certainly stands one with us and our community.
I’d be remiss in not also thanking Neil Davis, Fulya Gursel, and Val Ellis at the ETC for their unwavering belief in the coworking concept and their help in getting a deal worked out in record time. If not for the holidays we would have been able to get in a bit more quickly, but certainly the entire ETC staff has been nothing but supportive in getting this off the ground.
While the team is busy pimping our website, here’s some basic FAQ-type info that people have been asking about.

We’ll be hosting a setup party at the ETC in Canton on Sunday, Feb 1 from 11-5 if you want to come by. We’ll be based at Bluehouse (Fleet Street) just two more days: Tuesday and Thursday this week. Thank you to Bluehouse for being our home for the last three months! We are going to miss you, but we are sure to be back for the soup!
