Looking to switch up your work-from-home routine? We’re partnering with the Okanagan coLab to offer you the chance to try a free day of coworking!

During the day, you’ll experience a taste of coworking, as well as some of coLab’s events where you can learn, share and network – and we’ll have a few OYP surprises!

What to expect:

You’ll be sitting at a workstation near fellow young professionals, all working independently – so bring your laptop, charger and any other work you want to do! coLab has a fantastic space with free wifi, coffee and tea, a kitchen and a lounge.

8 a.m. Doors Open

Come in anytime and get set up (Psst..you don’t have to come this early, you are welcome to get those extra zzz’s and join later in the morning)

12 p.m. BYOL

Bring your own lunch, or pick one up from one of the many fantastic local cafes and get to know others from the coworking community.

5 p.m. – Doors Close

Finish your day whenever you choose, coLab doors close at 5 p.m.

The day will also be filled with delicious snacks, and a few surprises!
