“The facility offers office spaces, conference rooms, desks, a phone booth for calls, a podcast studio and a kitchen in addition to the online resources and access to networking and support,” Mesa Vice Mayor Jenn Duff said in a press release.
“This will be Mesa’s one-stop-shop for entrepreneurs looking to start a business or small business owners looking to be part of a community of like-minded people.”
Mayor John Giles and U.S. Rep. Greg Stanton were among those on hand for Thursday’s ribbon-cutting ceremony, as were CO+HOOTS founders Jenny Poon and Odeen Domingo.
“Congratulations to Jenny Poon, Odeen Domingo, Team CO+HOOTS; you’ve come a long way from a forward-thinking idea more than a decade ago,” Stanton said at the ceremony.
“You’ve turned CO+HOOTS into one of the best co-working places in the entire United States of America.”
