If you’re an entrepreneur setting out on your own in Brisbane, or if you work with an exciting tech startup, you may be familiar with the well-known Fishburners space. At Fishburners, gain access to resources that support and elevate your\u00a0startup journey. Fishburners is a fantastic space in the heart of Brisbane city home to many innovative young companies\/startups, and we chatted recently with Marc about his experience so far being a host of VenueNow<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We’d love to share with you this insight into what the hosts on the platform think about VenueNow and sharing their wonderful flexible spaces with you.<\/p>\n

\"Marc<\/strong><\/p>\nWhat do you do for work?
\n<\/strong>I’m City Manager at Fishburners, Brisbane \nDo you work out of your spare workspace?
\n<\/strong>Yes, we do! \nWhy did you join VenueNow?
\n<\/strong>I believe in Jake, and think that VenueNow creates a creative commercial solution to a problem for 21st century businesses – how do we maximise the ROI of our spaces?\nWhat is your favourite feature of your space?
\n<\/strong>Fishburners at The Capital is blessed with an amazing facility and fit out. The building has a stunning atrium that provides enormous amounts of natural light in our space, and we have an amazing rooftop facility that gives 360 degree views of Brisbane CBD.\nTell us about the most unique place you’ve ever worked.
\n<\/strong>The most unique places I’ve been forced to work is a Nicaraguan airport and behind a slots machine in Las Vegas. \nWhat type of guests have you had in your space?
\n<\/strong>As we are Australia’s largest community of early stage tech startups, we have been blessed with a number of Australia’s best entrepreneurs spending time in our space. We tend to attract people who are looking to connect with the wider startup ecosystem. \nHow much time commitment is involved in being a host on VenueNow?
\n<\/strong>Minimal. Jake and his team have made this process very easy for our team. \nWhat has been your most memorable experience as a co-working manager?
\n<\/strong>There’s been a few!
\n– Meeting Peter Davison (founder of Fishburners, and first investor into Paypal) for the first time,
\n– Meeting a Chinese Billionaire, and having my whole conversation translated in real time,
\n– Spending time with amazing Australian founders, such as the Orange Sky guys
\n– Each day, having the pleasure and privilege to talk to people who are taking a huge risk to solve big problems and build amazing products\nWhat are your top productivity hacks?
\n<\/strong>1. Don’t let email turn into your to-do list
\n2. Gamify outcomes to make your action list fun
\n3. Download “Moment” – it will tell you how often you open and are engaged with your phone. It will horrify you at the start, but make you far less likely to lose 30 minutes on Instagram.\n
