Coworking Space: Rotterdam Progress Bar in Rotterdam

Here's a revised version of your text: The ProgressBar is a unique place for me. No matter the season or the type of visit you plan, you will always find common ground and friendly company to discuss your goals and achievements. The growth of the ProgressBar, I believe, occurs not only in terms of space but also with the inclusion of new talents and motivated creators. I'm confident that after trying it for just one day, you will enjoy this place enough to stay for a lengthy professional journey.

For me, a one-man business, working alone from home is boring, so early on I decided that I wanted some more liveliness around me besides a buzzing home fridge. The progress bar is my 6th office in Rotterdam, so you could say I'm an office connaisseur, but I'm not telling you that you should. Anyway, this office is by FAR the best office I've had. It boasts a spacious feel, there's plenty of room and options to find a comfy place to work. If the weather is nice, you can sit out on the terrace (It's big!). There's two meeting rooms which you can use for calls or meetings. There's two soundproof phonebooth. There's a fridge, stuffed with groceries. If you're interested in food, you can help decide what to put in the fridge. For me, that means karnemelk & orangejuice and an occasional pot of tostiquick sauce. Don't let this deter you, please. For others, it means all kinds of weird bbq sauce, green olives, root beer, grilled chicken slices or veggies. There's also a second fridge Yes sir! Wonderful. I could yammer on about the food culture in this office space, but there's other important plusses, so let's move on. The place is clean! How do you like that? Temperature management is pretty decent: In summer, the place doesn't heat up like the dog next door, and in winter, you definately don't have to huddle up to your office-companions to keep warm. The location is just super. 5 min walk to Rotterdam Blaak, markthal, or to a stunning view on the river Maas. So the question is.... why aren't you here?

This place has some magic to it. The strong community of 'builders' has helped me to grow my network, learn from others, and create lasting friendships. Leon is a great host and manages to make any gathering fun. He's also flexible and open to all kinds of initiatives. The open floor plan lowers the barrier to connect, as opposed to many co-working spaces. Out of the 15-ish workspaces I have visited, Progress Bar definitely wins on openness & community.

This space is the most fun coworking space in Rotterdam, period!

It's a beautiful space, with a convenient location, great co-workers, and an amazing Host.

Great inspiring space, lots of light, roof terrace, strong community, not too big

I've worked in dozens of co-working spaces in four different continents and Progress Bar is my favourite so far. It's not as pretty as Hubud on Bali for example and it lacks a swimming pool like some of the co-working spaces I've been to, but it compensates amply with it's cosyness, the great community, all the amenities and the delicious and fun communal lunch. Leon the owner did a great job in creating and designing the place. He really makes sure everone feels at home and organizes events for members like an Eastern brunch, Friday afternoon drinks with beer and 'bitter balls' from the air fryer, etc. Already the first day my girlfriend and I felt very welcome since everybody here is super interested and social. That's perhaps what I appreciate the most: the community feeling. Although people here are very serious workwise, there is also a great social atmosphere with lots of chatting and laughter. Newcomers and people with a day pass are being treated as regular members. In conclusion: awesome place. Thanks Leon and keep on going like this!

It's a great space, amazing decor, modern, and a friendly environment. It has all the amenities that you might need, private space if you need it. There is a great community vibe and everyone is helpful.

They literally have everything you would ever want, for a very affordable price. It's simply the best choice you can make when working in Rotterdam.

The location is really tranquil, the manager high motivating and nice change to meet new contacts, nice forniture and 2 private meeting rooms, there is also a big terrace where to chill during summertime!

Great atmosphere, awesome people, located on a beautiful location that is easily accessible with all sorts of (public) transport

If you want to co-work in a place where you are not just welcomed as a (membership) number but as a real person - this is your place! Good working environment ranging from a living room area to fixed and flexible desks and (small) meeting rooms. Wifi is excellent also. And the nice thing - around 12.30 -1 pm they all prepare and have lunch together (all ingredients are included in the co-working fee - unbelievable!!). So lunch is a good time to get advice or just vent your work success or frustrations - but this is also possible during other parts of the day. Don't worry - if you need to focus they will give you that space also! Best co-working place I have found in the Netherlands so far, especially for people engaged in start-ups. Because the place is not too big everyone knows everyone - which contributes to the at home feeling. The terrace outside and the location (close to Rotterdam Blaak train station and the Market Hall (both at 5 minutes walk) are bonuses. In summary: highly recommended!

Progress Bar is a supportive community that helps you build progress with your business, whether you are a start-up, a freelancer or an enthousiastic entrepeneur. The space is small, supported by a big community, and includes all conveniences such as unlimited food and nice community drinks on fridays and/or when one of the members has something to celebrate and reached his/her goals. I personally like the supportive attitude of all the members always open for a friendly talk. They all feel like colleauges while I am working as a starting and single entrepeneur launching my new business. I do believe that the space is a safe environment for women/men/spiritual en enthousiatic souls to connect!

All you need, plus a relaxed atmosphere.

Its community is one of a kind, and so is the space.

Progress Bar is a unique coworking space with a really warm and welcoming community of professionals. For me the combination between working in a quite environment where I can focus really well, and at the same time lots of opportunity for 'gezelligheid' and good talks with the other coworkers makes this place so special. Oh, and of course the fact that the fresh, delicious and healthy food is in included in the price! Heavenly!

Good working conditions, good services, good rates.

Progress Bar Rotterdam is much more than a location: it's a community, and that makes it such an inspiring and enjoyable workplace.

10 out of 10, would co-work again .

I'm the kind of guy that flourishes, when I have fun at what I do. For me personally that means good food, good people, thus a good community. At the Progress Bar I get the fix I need. Talking shop, outdoor lunch, indoor brunch, private rooms for long phone calls, customer revival programs and drinks on Friday. Lastly I'd like to add it's customary to pop a bottle of champagne when you meet a personal goal and it's always ready, ice cold waiting to be celebrated.

The reason for me to join a coworking space, in general, is that I get really bored working from home alone. I like being around likeminded people and make work a bit more fun. Not every coworking space offers this kind of atmosphere though. At Progress Bar it feels like you work with some of your best friends on a daily basis. I don't know how the owner, Leon, does it, but I felt very comfortable right from the minute I walked in. The members are truly interested in one another's work and lives, and this is what I feel is what coworking is about. Great extras are the communal lunches, the whiskey & champagne themed meeting room and the lounge area.

The Progress Bar is a great co-working space, perfectly located in the city center of Rotterdam and easily accessible with public transport and a short walk. The space is very big and consists of everything you'll ever need: Kitchen, desks, big open area (also with working space), terrace, and two very stylish meeting rooms. Leon is an excellent host and really cares for both the space and everyone that calls this space their office. Besides that, the usual and expected: Good internet, good desks, nice members.

Newcomers and people with a day pass are being treated as regular members. All the different spaces are also a big plus: next to the space with desks, there are also two meeting rooms/Skype rooms and a large and very light lounge area. In conclusion: awesome place. Thanks Leon and keep on going like this!

Great space, amazing decor, modern, and a friendly environment. It has all the amenities that you might need, private space if you need it There is a great community vibe and everyone is helpful.

Very nice place to work. Met some interesting people and got a great amount of work done. Thanks!

I've been working at Progress Bar because is a cool place in the city where you feel like home and can chat with other people. The ambiance is great and they'll always make you feel good. If you are a book lover, you can seat in their nice open space and read a book or just work! We have been doing co-working days here and Leon and all the people working here are always open to welcome us and share with us their days. The community here is the best part and the space is awesome too! Don't hesitate to visit if you are around!

Progress Bar is the most fun co-working space in Rotterdam, I love their community and approach to work. It is an awesome space to meet other entrepreneurs and work in your projects. It is a relaxing environment and it is run by the Startup Foundation a great organisation that helps entrepreneurs with their challenges. I have hosted two events with Progress bar and they were very successful and the community helpful.

Progress Bar is an awesome place to work. I joined last december and it's the best decision for my business of 2018! The environment is very productive, but there is also a really relaxed and friendly vibe in the room. Also I really love the community aspect. There are regular drinks to meet new and interesting people; great to network, but also to share knowledge. There are some great growth hackers and marketeers here that helped me grow my business. The internet is good, but could be a little bit faster. Luckily they are working on it! Finally, Progress Bar is located very centrally so that's nice because I live in the city. I would definitely recommend to try it out.

I highly recommend this place. Here is why: When I review a place I look for the following aspects: - location - ability to work - utilities - ambience - hosting Location First of all, the location is great. It lies in the heart of Rotterdam, and is therefore easy to reach. My ability to work I think it's important to work in a space where I will not be interrupted by sounds/noise from other people. Altough the place has open spaces, I got really productive and was able to get a lot of my work done. In other words: there are no unwanted distractions for me at this location. Utilities The place offers all the utilities you need to get your work done; desks, good internet connection and enough food and coffee to stay awake ;). I really love the "lounge area" where you can unwind with some tv / ps4 games. If you need to hold a private meeting: check out the champagne or whiskey room. The ambience in these rooms is inspiring. Ambience The whole setting gives a relaxed feeling. As said, there are certain areas which will provide you with needed inspiration. Hosting None of the above would be this good if it wasn't for its fascinating host. Leon does a great job in making everything as comfortable as possible. Conclusion: highly recommended

I've been working here for a month and I must say that I loved everything about this place. There are a beautiful space where to work very relaxing, with a comfortable bench, a lot of beautiful plants, a good wifi connection and a ps4 to play with the other workers in the downtimes . The outside space is great but a bit too noisy. Food is good and it is always openly accessible. Furthermore it is very near to the city centre, just a few minutes away. People here are nice and you can learn a lot of new things from them.

I'm new in Rotterdam, I moved from Colombia, and there I worked as an Innovation Consultant and Startup Mentor. When I arrived here, I was looking for a coworking space just to feel me again at home, I visited this coworking twice, There is a beautiful space where to work, with excellent wifi, comfortable types of furniture and mainly a great Host, he is caring for every detail and every request for the coworkers. The sad side of my story there, I couldn't stay that Friday to enjoy its cocktail night, but I hope to go back to enjoy the place and the Gin that I missed :).

Really welcoming people, amazing place, full everything, cool neighbors. The only thing I missed it's to know more about the support for start-ups, workshops, events, etc. Leon talked about it and also some other coworkers, but I was there just for a day! So really looking forward to work back again. Ah, and the pictures do not make any justice to the actual place, it is 100 times better! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

It's always enjoyable to work at this coworking space. I've traveled around the world and worked in many different places, nothing matches the vibe at the Progress Bar. On occasion events and meetups are organized, which are open to all people that are members of the Progress Bar The space is ran by Leon Pals, he always goes out of his way to provide you with everything you need and to make sure the space is a great place to work for everyone. At the space I actually met Jeroen and we're planning to go mountainbiking together. Being able to work together and share hobbies is a great benefit.

Not only is it an office in a perfect location, most importantly, it has a great ambience and great people. It's relatively quiet, though it's still possible to talk to people on the other side of the office. The reason I'm still renting a private desk after almost 2 years is because of that. People are very laid-back, easy to talk to, exchange ideas, hang out together after work hours, or have lunch together. It's the ideal space if you are self-employed or a small start-up and want to be part of a community. On top of that Leon and Simone organize lots of events for entrepreneurs to learn more about the startup process and share your experience with others. Highly recommended!

Comfortable and clean place, very big, quiet rooms for meetings/calls, with room for all of the different working styles, very nice both inside and outside, has all the services a person needs to feel comfortable, spacious desks with all the necessary facilities, with big windows so there is enough light. There is a nice atmosphere inside, the team makes sure that everything is set up. The location is just a few minutes away from Blaak station, so it's easy to reach. It is the right place to work and think with stable and fast internet. Recently spent a weekend here, participating in a course, it was a great experience.

Friendly , relaxed and creative environment . Great place , with a lot of light . It is equipped with everything: excellent Wi - Fi , very good food, well located within the city of Rotterdam , easily reachable ( also with the public transport , 5 min walk to Rotterdam Blaak, markthal, or to a stunning view on the river Maas ) In the office there are great people who you can talk with . It has all you need as a startup . In the weekends there are also some events which are great to attend if you're looking to expand your knowledge . Highly recommended !

Progress Bar is an amazing space for everyone that is in the startup world. They offer not only a beautiful and creative physical space, but the atmosphere really sets this place apart. Leon, Simone, and everyone renting a space there are very open. You can talk over ideas and work through challenges with the group here and when we want to share a success of ours, we celebrate together with champagne! They have a full kitchen, a large lounge for groups and private spots for calls and meetings, and a gorgeous patio to relax and think. Definitely recommend Progress Bar as the best co-working space in Rotterdam!

My favorite place in Rotterdam to work and connect. Leon, Simone and team provide a great atmosphere, and are a great gateway to the global startup ecosystem. So, you're not only part of a co-working, but you join a community that extends way beyond vibrant Rotterdam. I enjoyed some real inspiring and change-making events, with key players in innovation and startups. If you like some fresh air, you can access some real nice outdoor area, a roof terrace. The location of progress bar is in central Rotterdam, accessibility by public transport and car are great. Don't look any further, here's you're new work-home!

We've been part of the Progress (& Startup Foundation) community for years now. Previously as tenants in the co-working space and now as regular visitors of all the different type of events they organise. The fact that we (and many other (former) members) are still keen on being part of the community says a lot about how Leon and his team have managed to create one of the best spaces in the Benelux! The working space itself has a cosy but focused atmosphere located in the heart of Rotterdam. The team makes sure that everything is set up for you to perform your best: Spacious desks with all the necessary facilities (free coffee ;) ), open community spaces and the infamous office lunches (and drinks) where everyone joins! It sure feels like a second home.

After about a few years in another city I return to a most heartwarming homecoming. The location with its terrace are superb, the facilities with comfy chairs and some standing work options are sublime and the people are about the best one could ever ask for. A good place to get called on your bullcrap and find genuine support. We enjoyed some drinks and food while learning from each other what has kept us going for the past years. Good to witness growth in a constantly shifting group of people that have at least 3 years of some sense of a common tradition or history.

Beautiful and inspiring office with big windows so there is enough light. Nice mix of people from different backgrounds and with various skill sets. Great food. It's usually quiet so easy to concentrate on my own work. I like the option to sit at a real desk or to chill out and work downstairs where they have benches, plants and tables. I don't really know what else to say about this place but this website won't let me post this review until I write the required amount of words. Which I will finally reach in two or three more words..

The location is just a few minutes away from Blaak station and Markthall, making it super accessible from everywhere. The space is efficiently divided into open office space, couch working space and meeting rooms, and yes there is also a fully equipped kitchen. I feel super productive working here, good vibes helps with good flow of thoughts. Also have to mention there is door directly linked to a roof terrace/balcony with a lot of space. It feels really good to have fresh air once in a while without losing time to go outside of the building. Overall a really good working place to be!

Our company just became a member of this co-working space and we are very excited to join this very engaging community of professionals! The space itself is located near the best spots in Rotterdam, and boasts very open working spaces with amazing interior design (including private meeting rooms ) and a huge terrace/outside area. Leon is the best host and organises very informative events where entrepreneurs can meet each other and find inspiration from each other! Leon and Simone add a great personal touch and ensure that everyone feel very welcome! (Insert more words to reach the minimum word count). . . :)

Recently spent a weekend here, participating in a course. It was a great experience in terms of location, outdoor access, light, plants, coffee and down to earth people. It's a place where real work gets done, with enough room for all of the different working styles that people have. I would happily come here again to work ! It also has a great location in terms of transit, bike access and proximity to the Markthall and the public library. This doesn't feel like a fraternity house. It feels welcoming and inclusive. Next time, I am stacking the beanbags and I am going to do some solid reading - and just maybe take a nap!

This is a real hidden treasure in the heart of Rotterdam. Within walking distance of major public transport hubs and some of the well-known sites in Rotterdam. It is a great place to work with stable and fast internet, comfortable seats and a great outdoor space. The plants in the office make the office feel like a greenhouse. What I truly love about this place is that it is not just a co-working space. Members help each other out and occasionally have a drink together. That is the purpose of the progress bar ;-). I would definitely recommend working here!

In the first stage of our company we were located @ the Progress Bar / Startup Foundation. With the help of the owner & the other members we were growing very fast. Still coming by every week! :) the location is in the centrum & provided with meeting spaces, a kitchen and a lovely roof terrace. You can acces it in 1 - 2 min from metro Beurs And Blaak (And the famous markthal. WiFi is good, food delicious and events almost every 2 - 3 weeks . Thanks for the good care And zeen u again! Cheers, Ruben .

Absolutely amazing space, very big, quiet rooms for meetings/calls. Staff is super nice, and memberships are extremely reasonable. The location is very central, and easily accessible from all over Rotterdam. The included lunch is great, and everyone generally has a great time. Every Friday they have an open house/cocktails, Leon definitely knows how to make some fantastic drinks. The outside area is perfect for gatherings, eating lunch in the sun or taking calls when it's nice weather. The downstairs portion of the office has a lot of light, and they frequently have watch parties for sporting events and apple keynotes. Overall amazing space!

If you want to co-work in a place where you are not just welcomed as a (membership) number but as a real person - this is your place! Good working environment ranging from a living room area to fixed and flexible desks and (small) meeting rooms. Wifi is excellent also. And the nice thing - around 12.30 -1 pm they all prepare and have lunch together (all ingredients are included in the co-working fee - unbelievable!!). So lunch is a good time to get advice or just vent your work success or frustrations - but this is also possible during other parts of the day. Don't worry - if you need to focus they will give you that space also! Best co-working place I have found in the Netherlands so far, especially for people engaged in start-ups. Because the place is not too big everyone knows everyone - which contributes to the "at home" feeling. The terrace outside and the location (close to Rotterdam Blaak train station and the Market Hall (both at 5 minutes walk) are bonuses. In summary: highly recommended!

Startup Port is a great place to work and has a friendly, relaxed and creative environment. The team working there are really warm and welcoming and the space has a great layout divided between a more formal and professional office space, private meeting rooms, an open kitchen area, a relaxed space for collaborating, pitching and presenting ideas as well as a cool terrace area which even has a hammock! This is the kind of space you dream about working when you decide to become an entrepreneur! And added bonus is the fact that the amazng Markthal is just 5mins away for loads of cheap and tasty lunch options.

Every time I walk into the front door of the Startup Port, I always feel right at home again. The Startup Port is a great place, where you feel right at home, the host is amazing, the events organised at the Startup Port are interesting so even while sometimes not working you can still keep on learning. If you're based in Rotterdam or even just visiting and you need a place to work, don't think twice just hop on over to the Startup Port. In short a great place, that I have absolutely no problem recommending to anyone. So come on over and say hi to everyone.

I hired a desk at the current and previous location of the Startup Port. It's a great location right in the city center of Rotterdam and has a train and subway station nearby. I always loved that the space has a lot of free facilities like printing, coffee, open kitchen, meeting rooms, rooftop and game consoles! I have met a lot of other founders through the community who I learned a lot from and are always available to talk about ideas or ask advice from. One of them even turned out to be my future co-founder of my current startup.

Awesome location, right by the station, a very relaxed atmosphere and great people to hang out with. The space is well equipped with nice desks as well as an open space which is light, filled with lots of plants and a large bench + tables which is great for switching it up a bit from always having to sit at a desk. The outside space is great to get much needed fresh air. If you need anything Leon is always there to help you out. Food is always openly accessible, and you can whip up a nice lunch with the other port members. The meeting rooms have writable tables which is very handy for meetings. in the weekends there are often events which are great to attend if you're looking to expand your knowledge or meet other entrepreneurs. All in all just a great place to work!

Startup Port has turned out to be a very convenient space in the coolest city in the Netherlands. Quiet enough place to stay focused and cozy enough to not be an ordinary office. The place is easily accessible with basically everything: car, train, subway, water taxi .. you name it. There are desks, but you can also work downstairs in a more living-room-alike environment. Dimmed lights and plants makes you feel at home, while the startup books reminds you where you came for. Great people work here that are always up for sharing ideas and providing feedback. Coffee and lunch is included. And to top it all off; owner Leon provides cocktails when there is reason for a party.

Although I’m not an entrepreneur (I work for a start up company), I feel at home at Startup Port Rotterdam. The office is filled with great people from whom you can learn a lot from. It has a cozy, comfy vibe to it, all the while still being a productive workspace. If you’d like to work on a big comfy couch where the sun is always shining, if you’d like to be surrounded by beautiful plants, if you’d like to sit at a desk or work from a meeting room, then Startup Port is the place for you. There’s always good food available (AH comes by every Monday morning) and the city center is just a couple of minutes away. On Fridays you’re always welcome to enjoy a drink or 2, including delicious cocktails, and various snacks. Startup Port simply is a great place to work at… and I’m not just saying that because of the coffee.

This office has, besides an excellent location in the middle of Rotterdam, all you need as a startup. The startup community there will make you feel right at home. There is great coffee and lunch, but most of all: a great bunch of fellow entrepreneurial-minded people, who love to share their knowledge with you. Another perk is that this location is also host to several events from the Startup Foundation that help you get to know the startup community better. And the best-kept secret of this office space besides the cool people? It's roof terrace, where you can work or chill when the sun's out.

I'm one of the newest (and also best) additions to Startup Port Rotterdam. When I began working at Startup Port my startup, which focuses on the real estate market, was in search of the key to a valley of dreams. And through a combination of workshops, personal interaction with other founders and extremely helpful advice I was able to develop my platform. I've worked at HIG (Het Industrie Gebouw), HNK (Het Nieuwe Kantoor) and GHG (Groothandelsgebouw) before. And I can tell you that Startup Port offers by far the best experience. Great (free) food and coffee and amazing people you can actually learn from.

Besides all the amazing amenities and a central location in Rotterdam, what I value most are members' portfolios of experience and the supportive culture, facilitated by Leon Pals. Startup Port is a hub for doers - people with concrete projects, valuable skillsets and a burning desire to provide value to their customers and peers. Being part of the SP community has been instrumental for experimentQ, from access to valuable reading resources to software deals, peer feedback on Slack and quality events. I strongly recommend Startup Port to everyone who needs focus and accountability on their path to create measurable results.

Imagine a world... in which everything you ever imagined to be possible was made possible. That's what Startup Port is. Now, although after months of begging we still do not have a slide that goes down the stairs, this environment is still great to just work on your biggest entrepreneurial goals. Apple, Amazon, and Google all started in garages, the Startup Port is the modern-day garage where these companies are started. The supreme leader of the community, Leon, is one of the nicest and most knowledgeable people in the community - hence the title of this review. His business knowledge, combined with his exceptional enthusiasm for interesting companies, is a refreshing wind in the world of coworking spaces. Here, at the Startup Port, you don't just work because you work. You work for a greater cause, to make a big impact on society, to truly change the world and form it into something you would like to see. If Gandhi was still alive, I believe he would be working at this coworking space. If I had to summarize the whole environment of the Startup Port in one sentence, I would have a hard time to do so. I don't believe there are enough words in the dictionary to give an appropriate image of what you can truly expect from working here. Every single day, the community helps you push forward, to break out of your own comfort zone, to break through the barrières you never realized you have set for yourself. It's like business on steroids, without the steroids - though if Arnold Schwarzenegger would start a company I bet he would start it here. The coffee's pretty decent too.

The perfect balance between a quiet, productive office environment and a cozy, relaxed living space. You can sit on the big couch downstairs, choose a spot on a desk or even take your laptop and work from the terrace if the weather allows it. Two closed meeting rooms are available if you need to discuss with clients or handle a phone call. Fancy anything specific for lunch? Just write a note on our shared calendar and it will come with the rest of the groceries next Monday. Air frier, rice cooker, microwave, egg cooker and toast machine will help you prepare your perfect lunch. In alternative, you can walk 5 minutes and choose a restaurant in the Blaak / Markthal area, plenty of choice. You are welcome to stay for a drink on Friday evening, bitterballen included.

For me, a one-man business, working alone from home is boring, so early on I decided that I wanted some more liveliness around me besides a buzzing home fridge. The startup port is my 6th office in Rotterdam, so you could say I'm an office connaisseur, but I'm not telling you you should. Anyway, this office is by FAR the best office I've had. It boasts a spacious feel, there's plenty of room and options to find a comfy place to work. If the weather is nice, you can sit out on the terrace (It's big!). There's two meeting rooms which you can use for calls or meetings. There's a fridge, stuffed with groceries. If you're interested in food, you can help decide what to put in the fridge. For me, that means karnemelk & orangejuice and an occasional pot of tostiquick sauce. Don't let this deter you, please. For others, it means all kinds of weird bbq sauce, green olives, root beer, grilled chicken slices or veggies. There's also a second fridge Yes sir! Wonderful. I could yammer on about the food culture in this office space, but there's other important plusses, so let's move on. The place is clean! How do you like that? Temperature management is pretty decent: In summer, the place doesn't heat up like the dog next door, and in winter, you definately don't have to huddle up to your office-companions to keep warm. The location is just super. 5 min walk to Rotterdam Blaak, markthal, or to a stunning view on the river Maas. So the question is.... why aren't you here?

The startup port is an amazing co-working space in Rotterdam which is quite unknown by the big audience. I moved here a while ago an loved going to this workplace ever since. The place offers a chill vibe, the people are relaxed and there is enough space for everyone. Besides that I like the quality of the desks, WIFI connection and the chairs. For lunch there is a big stock of all sorts of food which is bought fresh weekly, this is all including the renting fee which is great. On Friday's we like to put on some music and enjoy a cold beer or a refreshing cocktail. I would highly advice this working space for who prefer a cool, chilled working space.

We're collectively building the perfect office for us internet and startup entrepreneurs. As a member I enjoy coming in to our small hub of inspiration and hustle. Sure I also pay the bills around here, so please don't take my word for it. Come check for yourself, and if you feel our space isn't up to par, let me know and together we'll make sure it is. As that's how it works around here. Our space literally has everything you might need, and zero surcharges to boot. Apart from our work area, our spaces range from free meeting rooms, to a workshop space/living area, a storage room, a rooftop terrace, to a kitchen with grill and fryer. And then there's everything, from printers, gaming consoles, to multiple 4k screens to present on.
