GCUC – Global Coworking Unconference Community

We noticed when you say the acronym GCUC it sounds a lot like “juicy”.

An unconference is a session in which the attendees choose the topics of discussion. It’s basically a day of crowd-sourced content. Because the attendees themselves run it, it functions as more of an open conversation. Check out our unconference video here.

NYC baby. More specifically Convene.

We love Lyft and Uber! If you are old fashioned there are also lots of taxis. New York City also has those cool electric scooters.
