Who we are:

What is a Co-Work Space?

With all the new ways we are able communicate and the tools/technology that allow us to work remotely, use of co-work spaces have become a standard practice for many companies to provide greater flexibility and work-life balance for their employees. Co-work spaces also allow self-employed individuals have an office outside their home without all the additional headaches and overhead costs associated with managing a traditional office space.

Maybe someone just wants a quiet space to work for a few hours, or a room to host a training or meeting, or maybe someone is looking for an office to call their own that's a bit more conducive than their kitchen counter. SkanWorks has a space for everyone. SkanWorks co-working space includes private offices, dedicated desks, custom suites, conference rooms and meeting spaces.
