How Can Coworking Help Me?

I'm a recent graduate, what can Old Broadcasting House offer me?

Old Broadcasting House runs a pioneering programme especially designed for the needs of graduates joining digital sectors. nti Works is unique because it offers core training based around the unique needs of freelance creatives, and supplements this with one or more of the many specialist training courses run by the nti. There is no cost for the programme but places are limited. You can find out more about this exciting opportunity at the nti Works page.

I currently work from home. What can Old Broadcasting House offer me?

Working from home is challenging for many reasons, not least due to the prevalence of the type of distractions that we all tend to have situated in a space normally associated with rest, relaxation and recreation. Old Broadcasting House aims to be your home from home whilst focusing on providing an environment conducive to productivity with the minimum of distractions that may otherwise derail your working day. Our members tell us that working from home can often be an isolating & lonely experience. Coworking enables you to have the benefits of working in a large team such as people to share ideas with and mutual support, with all the benefits of working for yourself. What we find especially exciting are the new projects that are emerging from our members coming together to pitch for new business or work towards new ventures. Our space has superb travel links, all the amenities traditionally associated with a modern office space, and several unique collaborative benefits associated with the coworking concept we adhere to. If you are new to coworking itself you may find it valuable to read our explanation.

I currently work in a public space like a café, bar, or open area. What can Old Broadcasting House offer me?

Most workers move into public spaces to avoid the isolation that working from home can cause. Public spaces also offer the worker flexibility in where to situate themselves to minimise the amount of travel needed to meet current and prospective clients. To a smaller market, public spaces offer the opportunity to remain connected and on-the-grid through accessing wireless Internet services. Old Broadcasting House fulfils all these core needs through its city centre location, great transport links and fantastic technical facilities - the latter of which may be of special interest to nomadic workers who would traditionally have to forego the use of large screen displays, fax, print and equipment hire resources. But Old Broadcasting House is much more than a hot-desk with great facilities. As a member here you become a coworker who can benefit from working alongside similarly talented individuals, perhaps even sharing expertise in a mutually beneficial manner.

I've just left an organisation to pursue a freelance career path. What can Old Broadcasting House offer me?

As a worker who has recently left a small or indeed large company operating in your preferred sector you may be missing the facilities that such a position once granted you. Prohibitively expensive hardware, pricey licences and other related costs can be prohibitive. Old Broadcasting House offers you the chance to use the latest hardware and software facilities for a fraction of the outlay such services would demand.
