Rent a start-up space for as little as $15 a day
The mother of co-working space here is Hackerspace.sg, which paved the way in 2009.
When founder Wong Meng Weng returned to Singapore in 2008 after spending several years in the United States starting and selliing a tech start-up, he found there was no place where geeks like himself could gather.
That led to Hackerspace in Bussorah Street. Initially, it was a place for geeks to gather and network but soon evolved into a co-working space where people asked for fixed desks.
“We’re selective, we cater only to tech start-ups. Our focus is networking, being experimental and creative. We see ourselves as the larval stage of a start-up,” said Mr Wong.
“Tech developers come here, meet others, hook up, quit their jobs and start their own projects at Hackerspace.”
