Plugging in at The AmpRidesharing, crowdsourcing, peer-to-peer lending, crowdfunding – the sharing economy is big news these days. And in a world where consumption can get out of hand, a little sharing now and then is a good thing. It is in that spirit that we are proud to share our new colocation project in the Hastings Crossing area of downtown Vancouver. The Amp – its name inspired by our location in the old BC Electric Building – is a creative shared workspace anchored by Ecotrust Canada.
The Amp’s mission is to offer supportive, affordable, creative space for mission-driven organizations and businesses working towards positive change. Nine nonprofit organizations currently call The Amp home, with space for a few more: With support for guest speakers, collaborative breakout rooms, and an event venue, we’re excited to see what new and inspiring energy our shared space will bring!
