Read me in Bahasa

CoHive, Kuningan

Social gatherings are almost always present in a coworking space. GoWork regularly hosts monthly events such as Tasty Thursdays to provide fellow members a platform to build relationships, exchange their ideas and collaborate on projects over food and drinks. This helps to foster a sense of community which helps with retention of current members.

On the other hand, coworking spaces also often hosts events like panel discussions and workshops to create initiative for their members, offering them professional support that will help them to grow. These events are commonly open to the public as well, helping the coworking space to establish more quality touch points as well as positively shaping their brand and customer experience to attract new clients into their space.

So if you’re looking to build your network or simply want to get a feel for the coworking space, here’s our list of the most anticipated events happening this month in some of Jakarta's best coworking spaces.
