Huckletree Soho Opening and Concentric Office Move
Huckletree, the workspace accelerator specialising in curated ecosystems, today announces the opening of Huckletree Soho, the city’s first coworking space built with investors in mind, and Huckletree’s first central London location. The site’s four floors are designed to facilitate connections for over 300 members from the global investment, tech and digital communities.
Founding investment funds include Silicon Valley Bank, Sweet Capital, and Concentric, which will be placing functions and roles such as founders and principal investors into Huckletree Soho, to better connect with their portfolio members, serial entrepreneurs and other leading members of the global innovation ecosystem. Founding members also include Europe’s first digital children’s food service, Little Tummy and the new Israeli EdTech concept, Jolt.
“An investor-first workspace designed to help innovative investors build relationships with ambitious businesses has been long overdue,” said Denis Shafranik, Partner at Concentric. “The coworking explosion has created hotbeds of innovation, transforming how businesses meet, grow, scale and fundraise. Huckletree Soho ensures that startups and VC funds will be neighbours, but in a space that provides more privacy than your usual coworking environment, optimising it for deal flows, pitching and nurturing relationships.”
