About this space
A place to settle in and get things done.
ideaSpace City is a coworking community for founders and entrepreneurs developing scalable, innovative business ideas. Part of the wider ideaSpace network, it brings people together to work alongside other early-stage ventures and grow their businesses in a supportive environment. You do not need to be affiliated with the University of Cambridge to join, making the community open to founders from a broad range of backgrounds. The City office sits in the heart of Cambridge, overlooking the River Cam and opposite Queens' College. Its central setting places members close to several university sites and other organisations in Cambridge’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. The atmosphere is designed to encourage conversation, collaboration and the useful chance encounters that come from working alongside other founders. Membership provides the practical essentials of a working office, including desk space, fast wireless internet, printer and scanner access, a fully equipped kitchen and meeting rooms. Members can also use the ideaSpace portal, discussion forum and messaging platform to share questions, exchange experience and stay connected across the wider community. Community life is an important part of the offer. Regular Mix and Mingles, social gatherings, workshops, talks, founder stories and business-focused events create opportunities to learn from peers and experienced practitioners. Whether you are shaping an early concept, testing a business model or building a growing venture, ideaSpace City is intended for people who value an engaged founder network as much as a place to work.
