NedSpace

NedSpace has helped me grow tremendously as someone who wanted to push the needle in my startup journey, meeting others locally with the same mindset who’ve gone through the same struggles and come out to guide you and support you has been an invaluable support in my entrepreneurial and personal journey. I don’t think I’d be where I’m at today if I didn’t join, growing with others and bouncing ideas and strategies with each other in a supportive community is the best way to make progress, no regrets

I recently had the pleasure of working at NedSpace in Portland, Oregon, and I can confidently say it deserves a 5-star rating! This co-working space is a gem in the heart of downtown, offering an inspiring environment for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and professionals alike.

NedSpace is more than just a coworking space; it's a dynamic ecosystem fostering innovation and collaboration. As a member, I've experienced firsthand how its vibrant community, top-notch amenities, and inspiring atmosphere have significantly boosted my productivity and expanded my professional network. Designed with freelancers, startups, and tech professionals in mind, NedSpace offers an environment where creativity thrives. The diverse community provides ample opportunities for meaningful connections, leading to collaborations that might not occur in more isolated settings. One standout experience was attending a tech innovation event at NedSpace, where I engaged in an inspiring conversation with a fellow entrepreneur. This interaction not only sparked new ideas but also led to a valuable partnership. Additionally, the resources available—such as high-speed internet, well-equipped meeting rooms, and comfortable work areas—have been instrumental in enhancing my work efficiency. NedSpace is evolving into a vibrant marketplace of interconnected communities, akin to a food court of diverse villages. From the AI lab to media and web development groups, each "village" offers unique opportunities for collaboration and growth. This structure has been particularly beneficial for Questify Life, enabling me to tap into a rich pool of talent and ideas, thereby accelerating my mission to empower individuals in their personal development journeys. A significant part of NedSpace's success is due to its owner, Faris. His unwavering dedication to fostering a supportive and innovative environment is evident in every aspect of the space. Faris's commitment to community-building and his passion for helping members succeed have made NedSpace a cornerstone of Portland's entrepreneurial scene. In summary, NedSpace is more than a workspace; it's a catalyst for personal and professional growth. Its unique blend of community, resources, and leadership makes it an invaluable asset for anyone looking to thrive in today's collaborative economy.

I’ve attended several events at NedSpace and have always enjoyed the atmosphere. The space itself is welcoming and full of character, with beautiful views overlooking Pioneer Square and a fun, energetic environment that makes it a great place to gather. The events I’ve attended have been relaxed and community-oriented, with people from many different backgrounds coming together to share food, conversation, and ideas. As a woman attending events there, I’ve always felt comfortable and at ease in the space. NedSpace has a genuinely community-focused vibe and offers a unique coworking environment in Portland.

It’s a large and beautiful co-working space in a perfect location right over downtown Portland. I’m traveling and needed a ‘work home’ for a few weeks - the group here is super friendly and welcoming, and I got set up with a desk, access, and coffee quickly. Most people are working in tech / startup / design, but there’s a nice diversity of skills and interests. And it’s in the middle of all that PDX has to offer.

I was very impressed with Venture Business Center office space! It had the perfect mix of a professional yet enjoyable work environment. I could put my head down and complete work in an office space setting or casually reply to a few emails in the "grandpa's lounge." I really admired the fact that the owner, Brandon was always on site so any requests could be responded to quickly. The fact that a fresh keg of beer was always readily available was a nice touch too:)

Being self employed and working from home can be isolating, so it's great to have a spot to go work away from home. Nedspace is a place that intentionally builds community for its members and offers support and encouragement. I'd highly recommend it to anyone.

I’ve been with NedSpace since 2014, and I keep coming back because I love two things about it: the Diversity and Community. All races, religious backgrounds, sexual orientations, genders, etc not only are welcomed but you can also see them when you walk into the space, this is uncommon in the Startup community, where there’s mostly white male-predominant. The second thing I love most is the Community, everyone is so welcoming, accepting and helpful. I’ve looked into other coworking spaces but none compare to NedSpace. In other places people sit with their headphones on all day long and don’t interact with others... NOT HERE! We have camaraderie and help each other whenever we can. Take this honest review from a “seasoned” NedSpacer and give NedSpace a chance... You won’t be disappointed!

Wonderful community center and a leader in what it means to build a co-working community 👏

I showed up here yesterday on the basis of the fantastic Google reviews, and wasn't disappointed. I was greeted by the owner, Faris, whose excitement about the space and the community there was infectious. He showed me around the (beautiful) space, and by the time I left he was explaining tactics for organizing meetups.
