Workshops & Events
With the links and network we have built over several years, we have plenty of examples of The Workshop becoming the hub that it was planned to be at its outset. There are monthly community activities; a mixture of Workshop planned and tenants own designated networking events. With the additional aim of providing knowledge and support, tenants of The Workshop are encouraged and supported with any meetup ideas that they have at no cost.
