TNT: coIN Loft brings coworking to Wilmington
According to Wes Garnett, Delaware is the only mid-atlantic state that does not have a coworking space.
“It’s not just because no one has started it,” he says, “but because no one has even heard of coworking.”
Much like many Philadelphians, Garnett sees a northern neighbor taking technology talent from his city when there are plenty of reasons to stay home. Though Delaware is well-known as a tax shelter for large corporations, the state hasn’t exactly been rolling out the red carpet for entrepreneurs, something Garnett and his partners hope to change through coIN Loft.
“In 2007, Delaware was ranked 50 out of 50 for attracting entrepreneurs. The next year we jumped to 35,” he says. “Either way we suck.”
