The Innovation Labs is a modern coworking space based in the centre of Sudbury, with other sites across Suffolk. In addition, they offer business support to help you and your business grow.
The Innovation Labs is a shared office environment where individuals, typically freelancers, entrepreneurs, or remote workers, can work independently or collaboratively in a shared and sustainable workspace. These spaces are designed to provide a productive and professional environment, while also fostering community and collaboration among its members.
But it’s more than just somewhere to hire a hotdesk. They also offer their members business support through business coaching, accountability clubs, pitch practice, grant application assistance and more, as well as encouraging others to work and collaborate with other businesses across their sites.
1. Increased productivity: The Innovation Labs provide an environment designed for productivity. As well as fast WiFi, desks, lots of coffee and other facilities, you also benefit from not having the distractions that come with working from home. You can’t just turn on the TV or fire up the PlayStation in a coworking space. Its professional environment can help you focus on your work and increase your productivity.
2. Networking opportunities: One of the main advantages of coworking spaces is the opportunity to network with other professionals. You'll be surrounded by like-minded individuals who are also working on their own projects. This can lead to new business opportunities, partnerships, and collaborations. Coworking spaces often host events and workshops, providing you with even more opportunities to meet and connect with other professionals. There’s also the Thirsty Thursday evenings, hosted each month at a different Innovation Lab, so you get to meet other professionals and entrepreneurs.
3. Flexibility: The Labs offer flexible options to cater to your individual needs. Whether you need a full-time desk, a part-time desk, or just somewhere to pop in on an ad hoc basis to meet clients or make a Zoom call, there’s a range of options that can suit your needs.
4. Cost-effective: Coworking spaces offer affordable options for freelancers and small business owners who don't want to invest in a traditional office space where you’re tied to a long lease. Prices start from just £79 per month [LINK]
5. Work-life balance: Coworking spaces can provide a better work-life balance for freelancers and business owners. Working from home can be isolating and lonely while working in a traditional office can be too rigid and inflexible. Coworking spaces offer a middle ground, providing a professional environment that also allows for social interaction and a sense of community.
6. Inspiration: Coworking spaces can be inspiring environments that can help you to stay motivated and creative. You'll be surrounded by other professionals who are working on their own projects, which can be motivating. It’s also great to be able to celebrate your business wins with others or ask for advice if you need it or you’re stuck with a particular business issue.
7. Professional image: The Innovation Labs can help you to project a professional image to clients and potential customers. As well as having your business associated with a professional environment, you can take advantage of using their virtual office address, giving the right impression to those you wish to work with.
