Want to see the space and learn more about the hub Halifax?
Join us for an open hub at 1673 Barrington St. (2nd flloor) on Saturday December 6 from 2-4pm. Its a chance: to get a “tour” of the hub in its raw unformed state; to hear a bit more about unique offering of co-working/meeting/social space and stories from hubs around the world to share your ideas about what you need in a hub; and connect with people in Halifax who are also interested in co-working.
We’ll be giving out door prizes of hub day passes and there will be a raffle for ONE…
