Creative melting of the cultures
Marseille, the port city in southern France, has a bad reputation: the capital of Provence is considered dingy, criminal and dangerous. And in fact, you are looking for magnificent buildings and fashionable life in vain.
But Marseille is a melting pot of cultures, to New York capital of the Hipp-Hopp and 2013 cultural capital of Europe.
That makes Marseille with its more than one million inhabitants an interesting creative center - no comparison, of course, to other major cities, but surrounded by a beautiful landscape. A reason for me to take a closer look at Marseille as a potential work place.
That certain something
La Bo[a]te, the small innovation factory, as it calls itself, is located centrally in Marseille's old town not far from the Vieux Du Port on the Rue de la Paix. The 200 square meter room looks cozy and chic at the same time - one Combination, which I have been missing from coworking spaces at home.
Most of the people who work here are somehow related to the Internet-Industry have to do, but also proofreaders and editors.
Event Location
There is a bar counter and work stations with computers on the wall, plus free Wi-Fi throughout the room. Slightly separated is behind the hall a conference room with projector on the ceiling and screen.
The owners regularly rent the large hall and the conference room for events, events and presentations. Also on big ones Companys. In the evening, for example, there is an Anglo-Mediterranean Business-Meeting to take place. For example, there are regular BeMyApp weekends here. The YouTube channel offers an overview of the events at La Bo[a]te.
Real offices for long-term coworkers
To the right of the hall (as seen from the entrance) there is a smaller room with proper office space and everything the coworker's heart desires: sensible desks, shelves, a printer and work areas separated by glass panes.
This is the Concept from La Boate, as Martine, who bought the premises in 2007, explains: The long-term coworkers work in the back area, a good 15 people, some of whom have known each other for years. Anyone who wants to work here rents for at least three months and pays 200 euros a month.
Open jobs for daily coworkers
The front, open area with the computer workstations has also been open to daily coworkers for 9 months: People who just come by for a day, work here or want to explore the internet. It costs 12 euros a day, 8 euros for half a day.
I like to come here from Paris or Lyon, I learn, which are only for a few days in the city and can not work in the hotel.
Other countries other manners
Nevertheless, the classification and pricing shows the changes compared to other cities needs: There are fewer people who are interested in a flexible Workplace to rent monthly or weekly.
And who instead only drop by for a few hours, for example to surf the Internet. Kind of like a cyber cafe. And that is exactly where the origin of the coworking space lies: before the web enthusiasts La Boate to a small Creativefactory, it was an internet cafe.
Develop and share innovations
Martine, however, has a clear idea of what clientele she wants here: “If you want to make computer games, you're wrong here. However, if you want to learn something online, you are welcome to drop by and surf for free, ”she explains.
That's exactly what it is Idea, which stands behind La Boate, which was also funded by the municipality: not only to develop creative ideas together, but also to pass on the innovations. “It is about creating awareness for the changes in our Society, such as the increasingly mobile way of life and work,” reports Martine. And adds with a sigh: "But that takes time!"
International cooperation
There is one more thing that interests me because I am interested in international coworkingNetwork The business class net remember: What options do the operators of La Bo [a] te have to support me if I want to work here for a few weeks, for example, if I come from abroad?
The answer: So far there is no infrastructure for international networking. But for them Future that is quite conceivable. In any case, they are very interested in international cooperation.
