London's newest startup workspace and networking center for TechHub has just scored sponsorship from Google, it announced today, ahead of the the launch party on Friday and official opening on Monday 12 July. TechHub has scored funding from Google
TechHub is based at Silicon Roundabout on Old Street and is already sponsored by Pearson. Membership, with various access to events, cheap hot desking and room hire, is £300 per year and desk space is £275 per month. For startups who are ready to move out of the spare bedroom but don't want the expense and commitment of a commercial lease, these kind of shared workspaces work well.
TechHub is designed to be a central meeting place for visiting entrepreneurs and investors, a venue for tech events and networking and shared workspace. A mobile testing lab is also planned, and Google has said it has more planned for the project. Given Google's particular focus on mobile in London, that's likely to be a focus and TechHub would be a likely location for more hack events. That's a pretty simple way to put yourself in the thick of it.
