INTERNATIONAL COWORKING DAY HISTORY
The very concept of co-working goes back to 1995. Hackers in Berlin wanted to find a space where they could share thoughts and info, but concept of coworking didn’t really take off, however, until 2005. This is when software engineer Brad Neuberg blogged about inviting creators to gather together as a community. On August 7th, 2010 Tony Bacigalupo, cofounder of New York City’s first dedicated coworking space, New Work City, posted his own blog. In the blog he stated, “Next Monday will be 5 years since Brad Neuberg talked about coworking for the first time. I think that date should be the official Coworking Day.” From that day on, August 9th has been celebrated as International Coworking Day.
