Sometime in 2011, we noticed how entrepreneurs struggled to get an ideal workspace that will not break the bank. An environment that ticks just three boxes; Power, Internet and Ambience. We saw that need and decided to do something about it. We didn’t realize we were about to create the Coworking Industry in Nigeria.

We wanted to build more than just beautiful shared office spaces. We wanted to create a thriving community of like-minded people who come together and make magic happen. For this CAUSE, we have been creating new paths and ditching old rules. Today, we have over 5,000 businesses within our network and given business platforms to hundreds of entrepreneurs.

Not only do we create rooms for entrepreneurs to cowork, we help them to start, grow and scale their businesses through The Boardroom; a free monthly Business Masterclass. Let’s face it, running a business is like building a plane in the sky. So we created margin.ng to help entrepreneurs build “ultimate flying machines in mid-air”. In 2017, we partnered with Global players in the Coworking industry to host Nigeria’s first Coworking Conference, exploring the industry’s value-chain, opportunities and shaping its future.

We love to:
1 – Connect – We build platforms for this purpose; where entrepreneurs can meet each other, or investors meet ideas.
2 – Create – We really do enjoy creating new things, for our community of entrepreneurs and ourselves; innovation is in our DNA, we can’t help it.
3 – Collaborate – We don’t see competition, we see opportunities for collaboration.
This is our story, our journey… Let’s ride together!
