Hosting the perfect event in Ann Arbor is all about how you use the space, furniture, lighting, and other features to create the perfect vibe for your intent. Check out some of the many ways you can use the space for inspiration for your next event.

Architecture Photographer Josh Lipnik gave a talk in our event space on the architects that shaped Ann Arbor, and some of the hidden gems found throughout the area.

Brainstorming is important for innovating and problem solving, but if you’re working remotely or starting a business on your own, you might be missing out on a key component to creativity - in-person collaboration. This is why we created Hatch, a monthly roundtable where entrepreneurs can get new perspectives in person.

Cahoots is walking distance from many delicious lunch options for you while you are coworking in Ann Arbor. Our members shared some of their favorite lunch spots in downtown Ann Arbor.

Remote work has created greater flexibility, but also more loneliness and disconnection. Read the full story on the inspiration behind Flock, our weekly check-in for remote workers.

Today I spoked with Laura O’Connor, who has been a member of Cahoots for about three years. Come learn about the inspirational work Laura does for Burness Communications below!

Today I spoke with Katelyn Kelly and Rachel Phillips, two members of Cahoots who not only work together at Generations Homecare System, but who have also known each other since they were young. Learn more about their stories below!

One of the many things I love about working at Cahoots is the endless community of people around me. Today I was able to talk to Daniel Young, the founder of Circadian Risk, a risk analytics company.

Cahoots is full of talented teams, and each member brings something different to the table. Today, I had the opportunity to sit down with Cameron Brown of Billy, a rising health tech startup focused on senior care.

As a young college student, I had never been to a day long conference. The concept was new to me, and I was excited to experience it for the first time at Intermitten 2019, “The Conference for Changemakers,” in the Ark Theatre in Ann Arbor. Everyday leading up to the event, I would think about what exactly a “changemaker” is and wonder if I deserved a seat at a conference solely intended for such individuals.

If you’ve followed Cahoots at all over the years, you’ll know we like pluses — a lot. So, where did they come from, and why? We shared the story of our pluses first hand, three years ago at the first Intermitten conference. In fact, you can see how we framed the origin of our ++ symbol on YouTube around 30:30 of this talk….

Starting today, we’re launching an experiment called our House Car program. A few months back, we purchased a Tesla Model 3. Sure, we could’ve easily gone with a less flashy car, but what fits our personality better than an automotive startup making some of the sleekest, fastest, most technically advanced cars out there? It just had to be a Tesla. And it just had to be all-wheel-drive with full autopilot capabilities.

In the world of quickly proliferating, fast-growing companies, mission statements are more valuable than ever. But what is a mission statement? Essentially, it is the reason your company or organization exists. Mission statements help you address what you’re doing and who you’re serving, which help align all of your employees and ensure everything they do is in service of the mission.

Cahoots has always prided itself on the entrepreneurial spirit emanating from the building here. As found on our website, “Our cultural foundation is born from a common perspective of taking risk, getting stuff done, seeking our personal best, and having a positive impact.” While we have so many entrepreneurs working here, we got the chance to speak with one particular guy, Joseph, who is officially launching a BRAND new venture, Principal Interest. Principal Interest is focused on tackling the issue of Student Debt.

I started Movellus when I was still a Ph.D. student at the University of Michigan conducting research on semiconductor design. The goal of the research was to take chips to the next level in terms of power and speed to help nudge Moore’s law forward. Chips have analog portions and they have digital portions. The analog portions are still custom designed and cause a lot of the issues in chips today.

One of the cool things about coworking in Cahoots are the people — who come here from all different types of tech companies. Last week, I got the chance to sit down with Liesl from Revolution Parts, a startup based in Phoenix, to learn a bit more about what their focus is and why they are here in Ann Arbor.
