Co-working, incubator, and accelerator spaces are exploding across DC. In 2016, the estimated number of shared spaces in DC was 70, with dozens more opening already this year.

This session will walk through recent research on this topic and policy recommendations for city government and shared spaces to work better together to grow DC's economy.
