Startup of the Week - Zipcube
by Startacus Admin
If you’ve ever been tasked with planning a function or an event - whether it’s a training course or a networking meeting, you’ll appreciate only too well how selecting the right venue for your event can be a real challenge. There can be endless online searches and phone calls galore before you eventually find the right suitable location.
This is exactly what our latest Startup of the Week is on a mission to address.
Zipcube is an online marketplace for professionals to discover and book spaces, rooms and offices for their meetings or events.
Need a meeting room for a couple of hours? You can find it here.
Planning a networking event? You can find the perfect venue here too.
From standard offices through to unique and quirkier spaces - they’re all here.
It’s the perfect platform if you’re on the lookout for a space or place for your meeting or event.
However, it’s also the perfect platform if you happen to have a space or place that could be used for such a meeting or event.
In essence, you can list your venue and once approved and verified by the Zipcube folk, it will be on the site within 24 hours. You can add photos, prices and list all the amenities and facilities that your space has. The more detailed your venue profile is, the more likely it will be of interest and therefore rented out. Zipcube will handle and process all payments and for a venue owner there are absolutely no risks.
Zipcube is a simple concept but an effective one and if you’re in the market for either sourcing or renting a space it’s an absolute must.
