“I’ve met a lot of people through 100state’s events who could support me and my endeavors. Whether that’s lawyers or accountants, graphic designers or marketers, so I am very grateful to have found my tribe at 100state.”
Artists and Entrepreneurs
100state’s mission is to create a community and home for problem solvers, creatives, and entrepreneurs. We are a cоwоrking community that provides a shared working space thаt iѕ equipped with desks, сhаirѕ, printing ѕtаtiоns, private offices, meeting rooms, and internet. Members of the community work independently or together in small startup teams. A safe place to succeed and grow ideas. 100state is dedicated to providing education resources, events, mentorship, and more to the Madison area business and arts communities.
100state started with a back of the napkin business plan. Eight years later we are still in business and have hosted and grown some of the area’s most successful startups. Whether it’s the environment, brainstorms, startup mentoring, lean business model classes or learning about the business model canvass from another coworker or mentor here, our community is bursting at the seams with the support, knowledge, inspiration and resources to help you launch and grow your startup.
What differentiates 100state from other coworking spaces is the community. When you join the 100state family, you belong to a community of like-minded people here to help on another. We have ongoing traditions, rituals, educational opportunities, classes, hackathons and socials that connect our members in ways that the connections run much deeper than just sharing an office space. Many of our members don’t even use the office space but find value in the events, connections and networking, and opportunities that come from being a 100stater.
Welcome to your new favorite coworking space! Perched on the top floor of a charming vintage building, we’ve got 12-foot ceilings and walls bursting with local art. We get it—you didn’t sign up for a boring 9-to-5, so why settle for a stuffy office? Our space is all about comfort and creativity, with an open layout that sparks cooperation and community.
Need a spot for a quick call? We’ve got you covered with three conference rooms and a couple of cozy phone booths. Feeling podcast-y? Our podcast room/lounge is perfect for watching TV, napping, or recording your next hit show. And don’t worry about running out of steam—our kitchen is always stocked with coffee to keep you buzzing and blazing through your work.
“I really liked the diversity 100state embodies, you see that everyone is a trend breaker. We have raised a total of 5 million dollars, and when I first joined 100state we only raised 300k. A lot of that is contributed to having a professional looking space that I’m able to bring investors into and can be proud that I have an office here.”
You see members at 100state who are creating change in the community and forming a diverse workforce. Whether it’s by mentoring students or introducing them to entrepreneurship. They’re creating upward mobility for some of the most diverse companies in our community. I regard that as exemplary for 100state’s success.
