Coworking Space: ZeBocal in Poitiers

With cutesy names for its coworking membership structure such as Starfish, Bernard the Hermit and Starfish, ZeBocal has a whimsical yet professional approach. This is a space for those over working in isolation from a home environment who find it hard to set schedules as your personal life has a tendency to encroach on your professional life. ZeBocal attracts an eclectic crowd from graphic designers to journalists, videographers to bloggers, as well as multimedia designers and web developers to its doors. A completely refitted and refurbished apartment promoting personal work and exchange, it sits in the city center of Poitiers surrounded by cafes, bars and restaurants.

This is a coworking space where you can exchange ideas and collaborate with likeminded individuals and work on your own projects in a studious and productive atmosphere. When the brain is getting fried you will have a shared library or a quiet nook for some chill-out time. The meeting room is available for when you want to make a private telephone call or need face time with a client or a cohort. The kitchen is the bustling heart where conversation over coffee or lunch is usually collaboration and laughter time.

The clown fish as well as Bernard the Hermit coworking members have access Monday to Friday from 9am to 6pm, giving you plenty of time to hunt down your favorite croissant at the weekends. You will have all the basics needed such as wifi, printing facilities, complimentary coffee to keep the caffeine addicts happy and you can take up the optional meeting room package. The Hermits also have kitchen and silent room access, plus a lockable locker to stash their personal goodies in. The Starfish get to spread out in the meeting room, the kitchen and the silent room as well as having set of keys for 24/7 access and a shared mailbox - plus the basics.

For those unsure if they are likely to fit in, there is a "FreeDay" on Fridays when you can come and suss the place out, but you must register for this privilege.
