COWORKTAMPA WINS 2018 COWORKER MEMBERS’ CHOICE AWARD FOR COWORKING SPACES

CoWorkTampa today announced it has been recognized as winner of the 2018 Coworker Members’ Choice Award for Tampa, Florida. Members’ Choice award winners were determined based on the thousands of reviews, votes and opinions collected in a single year from coworking space members worldwide.

Commenting on the achievement, founder Chris Arnoldi said, “For the past seven years we have continuously upgraded and expanded our space. Starting with just over 4,000 square feet, we are now completing our 5th expansion and have a workspace that is nearly 20,000 square feet. What’s most exciting is that over the next six months our members will see some of our best improvements yet; including updating our entrance and bathrooms, as well as transforming one of our multiple coworking spaces into more of a business lounge. Our members speak, we listen, then execute. Exciting times ahead for the CoWorkTampa brand!”

“Coworker is excited to announce the winners of the 2018 Members’ Choice Awards and celebrate the coworking spaces around the world that are making an impact in their community”, said Leanne Beesley, CEO of Coworker. “By putting a spotlight on coworking spaces that are providing a great environment and creating a community for their members, Coworker gives coworking spaces both large and small the ability to shine and attract new members.”

TEN 2017 UPGRADES

We are incredibly proud of all the upgrades we have made around here, and it’s all thanks to YOU! Our members are always making great suggestions and thanks to the growth we’ve experienced in the last year we have been able to expand and grow more than ever before. Here’s what we’ve been able to accomplish this year (so far!):

Phone Booths
We understand not everyone needs a private office every day, but there are certainly moments when you need a quiet space to make a call or host a web conference. Complete with VoIP phones and Ethernet cords, these booths are ready for you.

Vending Machine
Snack craving during the day? We’ve all been there. Now, thanks to our new tastibot vending machine you can grab a healthy (but equally delicious) snack or drink anytime you want.

Better Coffee
You might expect coffee at any coworking facility, but do you expect good coffee? If you’re at CoWorkTampa, you should. We now proudly serve coffee from Zeal Coffee Roasters, an organic local coffee brand.

More Coworking Tables
We want everyone to have plenty of space to work, so we’ve added seven new coworking tables complete with ethernet ports to accommodate everyone.

Larger Kitchen Area
Our kitchen area is a great space to relax and have a conversation with a fellow coworker. Now, you’ve got more room than ever including more counter space.

New 70″ Presentation Screen
Giving a presentation? We’ve now got a new 70” screen you can use for projecting your PowerPoint or video.

Second Pool Table
At CoWorkTampa, we value work and play. Check out our new second pool table and take a break with a coworker- you deserve it.

Premium Dedicated Desks
Our new dedicated desks give you your own space, complete with dividers, file cabinets, and extra chairs for meetings.

Additional 5,000 Square Feet
We’ve expanded! To make room for all our great members we’ve added 5,000 square feet of space to accommodate more coworking tables, private offices, dedicated desks, phone booths, and more.

13 More Private Offices
For those of you who want your own private space to get work done, we’ve got you covered. We’ve got 13 new private offices, bringing our overall total to 31!
