1 Coworking Spaces in Cavite City

About Cavite City

A city in the province of the same name of the Philippines, Cavite City began life as a small port town that thrived during the early Spanish colonial era. It became the main seaport of Manila used for large sea-bound ships and the Manila-Acapulco galleon trade where foreign travelers landed on its shores. Myth has it that the early settlers came from Borneo and today the town is a bustling hive with about 102,806 people meandering its streets, indulging in "tuba" (palm wine) or getting creative in a coworking venue. It's home to the annual Cavite City Water Festival when street parades happen and everyone gets to dance under water sprinklers. Another town where "bacalao" (codfish) is a traditional dish and scoffed down by everyone, its cuisine is a melding of Filipino and Spanish culture.

Cavite City may not be the tech hub of the country, but it does have its fair share of intrepid tech savvy youth who wish to stay on their own home ground, rather than run off to a huge city. The Philippines has seen an unprecedented rise in the number of new and innovative businesses led by ambitious young entrepreneurs. The private sector is supporting startups with investment, creating incubation programs and providing mentorship. The government has launched numerous initiatives and is laying out plans to foster its startup community. Now that the Philippines has a more stable socio-political system, more businesses have been attracted to its shores. With high mobile usage rates and a large English-speaking population, the Philippines startup scene may be young but it is thriving.

With the advent of coworking venues it's believed that it will help to create a culture of collaboration and support.
