Around 2005, in London, the first Impact Hub workspace was built, which made it easier for entrepreneurs to meet, collaborate and learn from each other. With workspaces, a bookstore and a kitchen so that they have as many comforts as possible and all with the aim of creating an ecosystem of innovation, where inspiration is guided by experience and knowledge.
They currently have offices in more than 70 cities in 43 countries and on 5 continents. In Latin America they are found in Mexico City, Oaxaca, Antigua (Guatemala), Caracas, Bogotá, Recife, Belo Horizonte, Sao Paulo, Curitiba and Florianópolis. Worldwide they have more than 35,000m2 built and more than 9,000 members.
The figures achieved are staggering, by 2013 they had already supported the creation of more than 150 startups and thanks to this, 3,500 jobs were created.
You can access the work spaces by paying different types of memberships that allow access to certain benefits such as correspondence service, unlimited time, free hours, bonuses to join colleagues, etc. Since it is very possible that you are working with a team, ImpactHub provides discounts depending on the number of people and a very important advantage is that you can access events that bring together a large number of entrepreneurs.
In case you are not interested in a membership but need a space for meetings with partners or investors, you can reserve it at ImpactHub.
You may be thinking that you do not need to invest in renting a space to develop your idea, but the meaning of the investment goes beyond the space itself. After surveying 993 ImpactHub members, they found that 76% discussed their ideas with other members and 16% started projects or businesses with other members.
Among the results, they also found that 70% found new ideas, learned about new topics (by interacting with other members) and reinforced their commitment to the project.
Creating and developing projects requires an ideal space, with everything at your fingertips, with the ideal environment and with the company of people who want the same thing as you, to change the world through innovative ideas.
