Before moving their business across the street to Tower 6 they got their start in Velocity, City Center's co-working space in Downtown Allentown.
1. Why did you choose to work at Velocity?
It was a convenient intermediate step before moving across the street to Tower 6. We also really liked the exposed brick and the feel of the space. The option of using conference space as our main office was very appealing as well.
2. What do you like most about Velocity’s coworking spaces?
Flexibility to use different styles of offices or workspace as needed.
3. How was your work life before joining Velocity, and how has it improved now that you are a part of the Velocity community?
We are in a very collaborative stage in our business life and having places to work privately and collectively as a team is very valuable.
4. What unique advantage does Velocity provide you over traditional workspaces?
It is flexible, designed well, and supports the open space that my team needs to both meet with clients and work internally.
5. How does Velocity allow you to customize your own work environment and experience?
We were able to make a conference room into both a workspace for our team and an intimate place to meet with clients very easily.
6. How do the coworking spaces at Velocity empower you to do more of what you love?
We all sit across from one another and the idea generation is much more potent than a traditional office environment. It even gave us ideas of how to build our permanent space.
7. If you were to describe your experience working at Velocity in three words, what would they be?
Intimate, ambient, productive
8. What are your favorite places in Downtown Allentown to visit when on a work break?
