At Hubble we know how immensely important the right work environment is for productivity, communication and happiness. That’s why we are incredibly proud to partner with the environmental campaign organisation Friends of the Earth to offer six months free office space to a growing London startup worth £8,000!
Located in Stockwell, London Zone 2, you’ll get up to 6 desks to call your own in Friends of the Earth’s award winning office. Meeting in a boat, anyone?
Early stage startups often find themselves working from their kitchen tables or local cafés which can be both distracting and distressing. This is a rare opportunity for a small business to accelerate their brand and product in a focussed office environment without the cost of rent to worry about. The winner will also be invited to take part in Friends of the Earth’s internal events, gain access to internal training programmes and network opportunities.
