    Who are Office Nomads?

    Office Nomads is individuality without isolation. Nomads are developers, telecommuters, planners, consultants, publishers, organizers, and students, who all believe that by working together they can accomplish more than they could alone.


    Ten great things about Office Nomads

    1. Community. These aren't random Kinko's work stations.
    2. Three conferences room: a big one that seats 18, a mini one that seats 6, and a small one that seats 8, available for $25/person/day for up to 2 hours
    3. Dogs are welcome. (As long as it plays well with others.)
    4. Option of 24-hour access
    5. Some permanent work stations, big tables & lots of comfy couches
    6. Original art on the walls by local artists, that changes every couple of months.
    7. Open space that encourages coworkers to see and speak to one another throughout the day
    8. Access to the coworking visa, which allows active members of one space, when traveling, to use another coworking space, gratis! (Other cities include San Francisco, Phoenix, LA, Portland, Boston, NY - just to name a few!)
    9. All amenities included: high-speed 10Mbps internet access, wifi, basic print/fax/scan, free notary services, even coffee & tea
    10. A shower!


    If that hasn't sold ya - The best way to really understand is to come in and see the space. As always, your first drop-in day is free – it’s the best way to get a feel of what working here is all about.

  • A rare opportunity to see Gary Vaynerchuk while he's in town - October 20

    Millions have logged onto Gary Vaynerchuk's Wine Library TV - watching him boldly and unconventionally rate hundreds of wines. His pioneering approach to personal branding and business using social media brought over 90,000 viewers a day and made him not only a business guru but crowned him, the "Social Media Sommelier."

    His latest book, CRUSH IT! Why NOW Is The Time To Cash In On Your Passion, shows you how he did it!

    Biznik is thrilled to have Gary Vaynerchuk on Wednesday, October 20 as our guest for this month's author in our Biznik Innovators Series.

    We intentionally keep these events small and intimate. This one will fill up. RSVP now.

    As always, the event includes a FREE copy of his new book, and there will be time to get the book signed.
