5 Coworking Spaces in Cagliari

About Cagliari

Cloaked in eons of history, Cagliari is the capital city of the Italian island of Sardinia. This is the town that you catch a ferry to so that you can appreciate the city in all its glory with its medieval walled quarter perched high on a hilltop. You will have the jaw dropping sight of its golden palazzi and domes whilst you can almost hear the vespas buzzing around its tree cloaked boulevards of wall-to-wall bustling cafes smothering the seafront marina area. When you head to the east of the city you will arrive at Poetto Beach with its sun-bronzed bodies flirting in azure waters and a non-stop party scene during the summer months. Its population is around the 155,000 mark and it is the largest city on the island with a history that dates back some 5 thousand years. From slurping spaghetti to sipping espresso, Cagliari has a wealth of inventive souls who have no desire to live anywhere else. Coworking venues opening on its cobblestoned streets is no surprise, as many of its creatives like to hang out in a community of likeminded people.

Italians have creative culture in their blood, from food to fashion, design to wine. Major tech players such as IBM and Apple are opening up new tech hubs alluding to the fact that there is loads of potential in the Italian market. The government is instigating new initiatives to make it easier for startups to "start up" in light of the fact that it has always had a reputation for being bureaucracy-heavy. Cagliari may not be the tech hub on a par with Turin, Milan or Rome, but it does have its tech savvy locals plus there are the meandering globetrotters with laptops in their backpacks that linger longer than they should in this stunning area. Coworking venues are giving them the space to mingle, to connect and to collaborate before heading home to indulge in some wild boar or donkey stew.
