Brighton Dynamic from The Skiff Yesterday was the 17th birthday of the company that became The Skiff Ltd's. It took ~2.5 years before the company opened a coworking space so we get to have two birthdays a year. By many measures, the last month has been the best we've had since before the pandemic. The space is buzzing with members new and old. The best thing this week was hearing a member, who joined less than a year ago, say this to a member who joined in 2016: "Yes we pay and have a...

That's how I felt when I started my first business in Brighton back in 2006 and most of the people I enjoy working...

Brighton Dynamic from The Skiff You love Brighton for it's great pubs, cafes and restaurants. Lunch is the highlight of my day when I work in the city. I've recently enjoyed Bow Buns at The Pond and a Vegan Sushi Burrito at Happy Maki. But the food is never the best bit of lunch. It's always more about spending time hanging out with like minded people. Last week I enjoyed lunch with someone I've not seen this year and someone I'd not previously met in person. It was great! But I'm kicking...
