Since Covid, the nature of office work has changed significantly. More people are working away from their head office location or what they have set up at home.
Given the numerous advances in virtual meeting and collaboration technology, office workers/professionals can work almost anywhere. The rise in regional Co-Working spaces is attracting a new breed of office worker to downtowns in small cities across Ontario. Employees get access to amenities plus spacious and flexible workspaces. Extra meeting rooms are included plus you can invite visitors and guests.
What is the Connect Digital Hub?
Working alone or at home can be isolating for many professionals. Connecting with others face-to-face is both healthy and stimulating. “Collisions and collaborations” provide opportunities to develop new skills and also expand your business or professional network. Training solely on Zoom is not the same!
According to the City of Guelph, over 7,000 residents commute over 45 minutes to work, while many Guelphites enjoy a less than 15-minute commute (source: Townfolio). That’s why the Connect Digital Hub is conveniently located in the heart of downtown Guelph at 2 Wyndham Street North (corner of Wyndham and Carden).
In Guelph, Co-Working attracts a mix of professionals who:
- Like to meet other professionals and peers
- Want to save time commuting
- Are tired of working from their home
- Are motivated to grow their businesses
Our historic downtown Guelph building, formerly King Edward Hotel, has been restored and offers office users a high-quality, turnkey office buildout that is flexible to any sized team. We have lots of break out space and meeting rooms.
