On November 6, Basestation marks a decade since its founding – ten years of providing a collaborative home for innovators, entrepreneurs, and remote workers in Tauranga. To celebrate, we sat down with two of the original founders, Steven Vincent and Pascale Hyboud-Peron, to revisit the journey that turned an office with too much space into a pioneering coworking community. The story of Basestation is one of creativity, resourcefulness, and a shared vision for an entrepreneurial community, so we’re sharing it in two parts. Here’s how it all began.

In our last post, we shared how Basestation came to life, transforming from an oversized office into a collaborative home for Tauranga’s creatives and entrepreneurs. Today, as Basestation celebrates its 10th anniversary, we look back at the journey since opening day. From quirky tech artifacts to local art, a beloved coffee shop, and spaces for makers, Basestation has evolved into a bustling community that continues to shape Tauranga’s CBD.

 Coworking is more than just a desk and some WiFi. At Basestation, there are a broad range of added bonuses, perks and reasons why you should try coworking with us.

We’d love to introduce you to the lovely James and Ayla who are part of the Tauranga Marshall Day Acoustics team here at Basestation. We sat down with them both to find out more about them…

Each year we invite our residents to join us for the annual Basestation Christmas Party, traditionally this is a potluck dinner and we supply the drinks. 

Meet Craig Williams, the newest member of the Basestation team. Craig has been part of our coworking community for many years and is very familiar with all the challenges of starting a business and the benefits of coworking. So, it was logical that when our esteemed leader decided to go for his “long walk” that Craig was the first choice to help cover and be Steven 2.0.

We sat down with Craig to find out more about him…

Part of the human condition is to be social and find connection and belonging. 

With remote working on the rise, more people are looking to join a coworking space so they can connect with others on a regular basis rather than just working from home. 

At Basestation we understand the importance of connection and belonging, so we host regular events and opportunities for our residents to connect, network and create belonging together. Here are just some of the events, initiatives and opportunities we've hosted or got behind in the last 6 months!
