Two of America’s Top Coworking Spaces Located in Florida

Since taking office Florida Governor Rick Scott has made it his mission to make the Sunshine State a beacon for entrepreneurship. Inc. magazine released its list of 23 of the Best Coworking Spaces in the U.S. Two of America’s top coworking spaces are located in Florida.

Larry Kim, CEO of MobileMonkey, Inc., writes:

Coworking spaces make it ridiculously easy for entrepreneurs today to find an office space.

Back in 2008, when I first started looking for office space for my new startup, the process was insanely difficult. You could either lease or sublease.

The leases were long. Usually they tried to lock me into a multi-year lease. Plus, there were additional expenses, such as furniture, Internet access, and cleaning.

Long leases make hiring a big issue for growing startups. Your office needs can change every six months to a year. So that usually leaves you with two equally bad options. You can either:

• Overpay for too much office space that you’ll (hopefully) grow into.
• Pay for a space you know you’ll probably outgrow before the lease is up.

All of this made life pretty hard for startups.

That was before the rise of coworking spaces.

Florida’s top coworking spaces are:

The LAB Miami

This chill coworking space filled with a talented and diverse group of people is located in an ultra-hip Wynwood area of Miami, Florida. The LAB Miami is ideal for anyone seeking excellent vibes, friendly staff, and a motivating atmosphere.

Hub Sarasota

Located in Sarasota, Florida, the HuB shared office space is a great place to work and network with great people. It’s home to a creative atmosphere and is also fantastic for networking, education, and collaboration.

Here’s how people at HuB Sarasota talk about their coworking space:

HuB Sarasota’s motto is “Create something. From nothing.”

That is as American as hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet.
