Future Up

The very best decision we ever made in starting Jayride was to start it at Fishburners. From the first moment we were in that room we were surrounded by new peers who had done it all before. Need affiliate marketing expertise? Got it. Capital financing expertise? Got it. There are Dgugufuguuugguhzunwas no question which that room couldn’t answer. Fishburners freely gave us unlimited hand-ups,shortcuts and introductions in the right direction, and we absolutely wouldn’t have grown as fast as we have if not for the Fishburners community.

Fishburners has been instrumental in our success to date. Through the community, I’ve built the team, worked with amazing contractors and learnt so much from my fellow burners. I’ve also had the opportunity to go to Silicon Valley twice (backed by Google), which put ConX on the global map for ConstructionTech.

When I started Car Next Door it was just me by myself at Fishburners.  I met some amazing people a few steps ahead of where I was (so where I wanted to be) which was very helpful and inspiring.  As we grew, I was able to add to the team person by person without needing to do distracting and expensive office changes. We grew from 1 to 25 desks in Fishburners.  It’s a great place to get your startup started.

‘Straight out of University, I started Mad Paws from Fishburners as a community member and as a team of one. I had no relevant prior experiences and so the support in marketing, technology and product I received from the Fishburners community was without exaggeration game changing for the trajectory of Madpaws. In addition to that, it was extremely motivating for myself and the early team to be surrounded by a large number of startup people who were at a similar stage of the business life cycle and a few levels up, and who, just like us, were passionate to scale rapidly and change the world.

I had planned to visit multiple Co-working spaces before deciding but as soon as I came to Fishburners  I had a really good feeling about the place and the people. There are so many events where you can meet great people, find a co-founder or learn something new from a fellow member.

Being a solo entrepreneur, you are constantly in your own mind but with Fishburners everyone is willing and excited to help out and bounce ideas off of you which is invaluable. There are so many incredible people here and I am inspired by someone everyday. Fishburners is more than a co working space, it’s a community of awesome like-minded people who really care about what you’re working on. 

We chose Fishburners for the level of community interaction and networking which happens every day.  We have always found other members to be freely available to share their experience and give valuable feedback. Just being able to sit next to people who are also building their tech startup builds the momentum for all.

Fishburners provided me with a wealth of connections that helped me start and grow my startup. Being a solo founder, I often had challenges that were hard to solve on my own. I gained a great number of meaningful connections who helped me on my journey. Even though I graduated out of Fishburners, I still stay in touch with some members and continue to learn from them.

I attended a meeting at Fishburners. The central location, light-filled halls, friendly staff, and the community spirit makes Fishburner more of my home and family. I knew I wanted to start my social enterprise there.
