Community Open House, Thursday 9/24!

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

You may have seen on Twitter (via @bhivebmore) that we are planning a Community Open House event at Beehive Baltimore on Thursday, September 24th.

I hope you will be able to stop by sometime on Thursday and hang out for at least a couple of hours and meet some of the new people in our community who are looking to learn more about coworking!

We’ll also be having lunch from 12:30-1:30 and hope you can join us for that as well!

And please feel free to bring a friend who you think might be interested in coworking. Now that fall is here and vacation season is over, we are looking to expand the Beehive community.

Lastly, we’d like to ask you to commit, if you’re able, to working at least one day per week at Beehive Baltimore!  Having an active coworking community requires your active participation, and you’ll get out of it what you and others put into it. So, please pick a day or two per week that works for you and come on down.  Beehive is open every Monday-Friday from 9:00am on!

We look forward to seeing you on Thursday, and thank you again for your support for coworking in Baltimore!

Beehive Baltimore to Open on Groundhog Day!

Friday, January 23rd, 2009

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.

Here’s some more info on Beehive Baltimore:

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!
