THIS THURSDAY 10 August is OfficeXpats! International Coworking Day Celebration (free coworking and a BBQ lunch): Each year we celebrate the start of coworking (as a dedicated business model offering coworking full-time) with a full day of free coworking, and a lunchtime BBQ (also on us). Join us and learn more about the fun and focus of working independently with others.  For the history geeks among us, Coworking Day is actually August 9, 2006 (some history). However, our weekly member meetups and other celebrations are typically on Thursdays, so we are nudging the celebration forward a bit.
