Everything you need to know about TechHub

A global provider of coworking spaces, TechHub is hugely popular among techie entrepreneurs and businesses – but is it right for you?

In this review, we’ll answer the following questions:

What is TechHub?

With locations in Riga, Bucharest and Bangalore as well as Swansea and London, coworking space provider TechHub calls itself a “global community for tech entrepreneurs”.

Launched in 2010, TechHub is now home to over 750 companies worldwide. Its spaces are lively, modern and colourful (table football and pool table included).

You’ll find a strong focus on community in these diverse, inclusive and collaborative spaces, as members are encouraged to build productive relationships with peers and help one another solve problems.

Who is TechHub for?

As the name would suggest, TechHub offers spaces exclusively to entrepreneurs, start-ups and scale-ups who operate in the tech products sector.

In terms of business size, TechHub welcomes a variety, ranging from teams of just one founder to teams of 100 employees.

The benefits of a TechHub membership

Alongside the traditional perks of being based in a coworking space – flexible lease terms and free coffee, anyone? – a TechHub membership also comes with benefits specifically to help your business grow and succeed. These include…

The TechHub Programme

Each TechHub location runs a programme of over 200 free events per year, each designed to support its members in getting through challenges and reaching for targets.

These events include:

• Practical workshops
• Talks from experts both in and outside the TechHub community
• Q&A sessions
• Introductions to investors and suppliers
• Demo days for your product and opportunities to gain feedback
• Sessions in which to collaborate with fellow members

Covering a range of crucial topics – including funding, talent, revenue, product development, networking, marketing and more – each location’s programme is tailored specifically to the community of businesses who reside there.

Exposure

Alongside running its programme, TechHub has been known to help its members gain public exposure.

Businesses who are based in a TechHub space are often featured on its social media channels, which reach a collective audience of tens of thousands. The provider has also secured international press coverage for some of its members.

Access to a global network

Importantly, full-time TechHub members not only gain 24-seven access to their chosen TechHub location, but they’re also permitted to drop in to any of TechHub’s spaces across the globe.

Of course, this is a handy perk if you happen to be travelling to Riga, Bucharest or Bangalore, and could do with a place to get to work for a day or two. But beyond just convenience, this benefit also provides a means by which to explore export opportunities for your business.

Fancy investigating the potential of expanding into continental Europe? Use TechHub Riga or TechHub Bucharest as a base from which to get to know the local area, and learn about the local business scene from members at the space.
