On Friday 26th April 2024, we celebrated 5 years of our co-working space and community hub – half a decade of helping hundreds of the region’s best and brightest entrepreneurs, business leaders, start-ups, and scale-ups, last week with a gala dinner and awards ceremony at our beautiful office space located on Berkeley Square, Clifton.
Opening in 2019, our premium co-working and meeting venue, has more than 600 members, as well as alumni of success stories who have gone on to grow and establish themselves as leaders in their sector.
We welcomed over 200 people to the Berkeley Square location to mark our anniversary, bringing together friends & family, Origin Workspace members old and new, and supporters of the organisation, to celebrate in true Origin style. From an orange carpet, delicious cocktails and food, and a live band, it was an evening reflective of everything that makes it one of the best places to work in the city.
The night also featured an awards ceremony, celebrating the business and individuals that best represent what it means to be part of the Origin Workspace community, and some of the outstanding success stories. Winners on the night included:
Ambitious Award – EA Change
Progressive Award – YUGO
Connected Award – Bamber Education
Success Award – Beach Baker
Charity Contribution Award – TMW
Leveraged the power of the business community Award – Appeal Digital
Start-up Award – All About the Cooks
Supplier Award – Blackstar/ Croft
Rob Hingston, Managing Director of Origin Workspace, said; “Having been here since the very start, it’s quite amazing to think we have now been open for five years. It has been incredible to watch this space transform from a shabby looking 70’s office building, into one of the leading co-working spaces in the region.”
“But the greatest pleasure I have had over that time is watching all the entrepreneurs, start-ups, scale ups, and freelancers that have come through those doors and grown to become incredibly successful. We have had one-person operations join us that have now turned into businesses with over 20 or 30 members of staff, and seeing those success stories happen within the space is the greatest achievement.
Heather Frankham, Founder of Origin Workspace, commented; “To see the growth of this community and the amazing success stories that have come out of this space is so incredibly inspiring. Business leaders from all walks of life, across almost sector ever passed through these doors and have all helped to create the Origin success story. This space was designed specifically to allow businesses to start, grow and scale with us, and to look back now after five years I would like to say that we have succeeded in doing that.”
We provide a collaborative work environment with various features to enhance user experience. These features include computer monitors, sound-proof phone booths, and an onsite quiet room, which allow users to focus on their tasks and complete their to-do list efficiently.
You’ll find first-class facilities on every floor, including, modern offices, super fast WiFi, a selection of meeting rooms, a packed-full programme of networking and social events, and of course great coffee. But more than that, it is the community built upon a strong culture of collaboration too, where members regularly find advice, connections and even customers within the network.
