I called to make sure they had an open desk and they sent me the invoice via email. Super easy to pay and they send the entrance code, Wi-Fi info and all other info you may need via email. I paid for a day pass (great value!) and was greeted at the door. Complimentary coffee and snacks are in the kitchen, with two levels of coworking space. There are couches if that's your vibe, desks or private offices. The space itself is GORGEOUSLY decorated and there is natural light everywhere! It was quiet and was just what I was looking for. Took a video tour but I can't post it here :( Thank you so much for the experience! I'll definitely be back here when I'm in Columbus again!

Not an entire building. Let a group of small businesses split the cost. Brilliant. I've been working out of Qwirk for 3 days now and I have to say, I'm pretty damn happy here. The company I am working for is in the corner office right next to the kitchenette, so I can zombie walk to it for caffeine overdoses multiple times in the morning without risking falling asleep on the way. There are two of us our office and we have PLENTY of space. Locked doors, etc. + All-you-can drink Keurig coffee pods in 6 different flavors + Short walking distance from Katzinger's, Mojoe Lounge/Cup O Joe, Starbucks, Club 185 + more - convenient for meetings/nourishment. BONUS: Book loft! Lovely lunch break. + Cozy couch area for informal meetings or naps + Conference rooms for more formal meetings (or naps?) - Parking. There's no lot for Qwirk and German Village street parking can fill up pretty fast

Other member businesses are fun to work around. The typically size business that works at Qwirk is between 1-3 people. What works about Qwirk is that everyone has their own private office while still having access to common areas like conference rooms and a sitting area. There's a kitchenette, with access to a microwave, refrigerator, freezer and all the Keurig coffee you can drink. While it's not the "prettiest" space around, it's very functional and extremely reasonable in terms of cost and what you get as a member. Qwirk works for me and my business nicely.

Yet another reason why Columbus is badass? This city is hoppin' with young pros, 10,000 of which…read moretake part in this (not so) little organization - one of the top three young professional networks in the US! Reasons why I love CYP: 1. FREE membership - rather than pay a flat rate per year, you only pay for the events you're interested in attending, many of which only cost $5-$10 dollars and tend to include free food/drinks 2. Variety - CYP events can be seasonal sports leagues, socials, networking breakfasts, movie nights, local cultural events, etc. You name it, CYP's probably got it. They're open to suggestions for new venues and ideas so you never know what will be offered next. 3. Networking - I might be a little biased on this one coming from a PR background, but I LOVE that this group incorporates people from all different professions. Events are a great way to step out of your comfort zone and meet some really interesting people. 4. Leadership and volunteer opportunities - with weekly events and access to hundreds of non-profits, clearly these opportunities will present themselves. They're another great way to access and connect with the community. With so many members, events can be overwhelming at times. The business events can get stuffy sometimes too, but I suppose that's to be expected since I'm probably one of the youngest members in the group (yeah, 22!) Either way, if you're young and looking for fun, networking and sweet experiences in Columbus, you should probably join CYP.

After living in DC and being a part of a very active Young Professionals network, I wished that…read morethere was something similar here in Columbus. Fortunately, the Columbus Young Professionals were just being formed at that time and I hurried to join. Unfortunately, an opportunity opened up for me out of Ohio and I put my membership on hold. Fast-forward 2 years later. I moved back to Columbus and found that the Columbus Young Professionals I had left behind had grown to be one of the premiere young professionals organizations in the country! They hold a nice variety of events so you are bound to find something that you like to do. There are a wide range of members but do be careful of those that see this as a dating club when you are there to network and meet other like minded professionals. I've met many new, wonderful friends in this group...but I've also met some people who restraining orders would be more appropriate. But that's really the case with any group. Just know what you're getting into. Membership is FREE and you only pay for what you do within the group. For example, there is a monthly member dinner which is fee to attend. You just pay for your meal. Other events, such as outings to the Funny Bone, have discounted tickets (normally $30 but $5 for CYP members). They also have volunteer opportunities to help give back to the community. I'm glad to be back and getting back into a group that with over 10,000 members has become the 3rd largest Young Professionals Network in the US!
