DC Startup TouchdownSpace Is The ZipCar Of Workspace

TouchdownSpace,DC startup,startup newsCo-working space, office space, conference rooms, computer lab space, whatever your need a new startup in Washington DC called TouchdownSpace is there to help. Caleb Parker and Svet Voloshin, the founders of this new startup that’s going to disrupt the current commercial office space model dub it as “The Zipcar for professional space”.

Working isn’t like it used to be. With so many small businesses, entrepreneurs, freelancers and startups, office space needs change. One day a startup founder may need simple desk space, and later in the day they may need a meeting room for 20. On a small business and startup budget it’s impossible to try and rent something that encompasses all the flexible space options someone may need.

Freelancers on the other hand may enjoy co-working at the new co-working space or they may rather sit and sip Starbucks for five hours while working on their latest project. Again this is great until you need to meet a client with a whiteboard, or discuss confidential information.

Some startup spaces and incubators have access to a wide variety of spacing needs, but for those that don’t there’s TouchdownSpace.

“We are on a mission to help people work better,” says CEO and co-founder, Caleb Parker. “The nature of work is changing. More people are working outside of the office than ever before. The old real estate model of high rent and lengthy lease terms must change too. It just doesn’t make sense to pay high rent on a space you’re not in all the time.”

TouchdownSpace has partnered with office business center operators at the leading edge of the workspace-as-a-service (WaaS) industry, such as Carr Workplaces, AdvantEdge Business Centers, Intelligent Office, and others, to aggregate their available workspaces and offer them on-demand to TouchdownSpace members

While TouchdownSpace is starting in Washington DC they already have their eyes on five other markets.

Parker has been an active member of the DC startup scene for quite sometime. Personally he has some great role models and mentors.”

Local angel investor and turnaround CEO, Glen Hellman, who is on our Advisory Board, has been a good mentor.  Brad Feld and Steve Case are great business role models, and you can’t forget Richard Branson as a role model on building a strong brand.  When it comes to morality/integrity, I can always turn to my Dad for his perspective on what the right thing to do is.” he told us in an interview.
