It provides a range of facilities, tools, and services at a fraction of the cost of setting up a dedicated facility. It is designed to accommodate use by both individuals and small teams. The Hive offers the amenities of a traditional workplace with the convenience and sociability of a neighborhood cafe. The Hive offers everything from desks and meeting rooms to social areas, high speed Internet a
ccess and office equipment. The Hive can also link users to virtual incubator services delivered by Los Alamos Commerce & Development Corporation and other entities. The Hive is a live experiment aimed at discovering whether an underutilized building can be repurposed to support a cowork community of freelancers, entrepreneurs, independent inventors & innovators, startups, small businesses, big company telecommuters, field workers, and other laptop nomads who are tired of working alone at home or in crowded and noisy coffee shops. It is an experiment to test the possibility of developing a facility supporting a community of workers who socialize and, more importantly, collaborate. They can bounce ideas off each other, share expertise, join forces on projects, refer business to one another and even join to create new companies.
