Birmingham’s coworking movement started as a result of weekly Jellies at coffee houses across the metro area (and Innovation Depot). It just makes sense to start it up again – so we are!
Jelly starts tomorrow morning at The Red Cat (formerly o kafé’s) in Pepper Place at 9 a.m. (though I’ll probably be there shortly after 8 a.m.) and will go until we’re finished.
There’s an invite on Facebook where you can RSVP if you want to, but I figured I’d share a portion of the description that we included over here:
“Jelly is casual coworking. We invite people to work from our home (or our favorite coffee house) for the day. We provide chairs and sofas, wireless internet, and interesting people to talk to, collaborate with, and bounce ideas off of.
You bring a laptop (or whatever you need to get work done) and a friendly disposition.
We’ll bring a couple of power strips and a willingness to meet some new people!
We see a lot of designers, developers, and internet types, but we’ve also had musicians, cooks, sound designers, tea sommeliers, product designers, photographers, writers, and more.
Some of us are entrepreneurs or freelancers. Others work in an office most of the time, but work at Jelly for fresh ideas and a change of pace.”
Looking forward to seeing you there!
