In our rapidly changing economy, innovation and collaboration go hand-in-hand. That's why co-working spaces have been popping up around the nation. Not to be outdone by culture centers like New York and LA, Houston has plenty of its own co-working spaces to help spark your imagination and drive.

Just a few blocks west of Dynamo stadium, START is Houston’s most established co-working/startup space. The open space, comfortable chairs and giant Simpsons mural create an environment you want to work in. START hosts hackathons and meetups to fuel collaboration and build the startup community. Some of Houston’s most successful startups, like ChaiOne, have called START home at some point. If you’re interested in trying it out, START has free co-working on Thursdays.
