New club provides office space
by Real Business - Friday, 15th February 2008 -
Breaking out of the office space, and taking your business mobile? Or tired of being bound to your company desk and thinking of turning your living room into your office space?
As mobile and home-business become more mainstream, people are moving out of boardrooms and traditional office space to do business. But where does a mobile entrepreneur go to meet clients? Or just for a comfy chair to sit in while e-mailing that business proposal? One Alfred Place has the answer. It offers members all the office space essentials – a meeting room, PA services and a fast wireless connection – without the exorbitant expense of renting an office.
