Fort Collins is an active town with a large population of independent, creative, and community-oriented individuals, so we tend to have a lot of gatherings and celebrations. The Cohere community is also made up of a large percentage of independent, creative, and community-oriented people, so many of us like to attend gatherings and celebrations.
Several fantastic get-togethers are happening in March and April; events to celebrate and collaborate with entrepreneurs, music lovers, artists, and artisans. Here are a few of our favorites!

Founded in FoCo
March 10-12
Fort Collins Senior Center
1200 Raintree Dr, Fort Collins, CO 80526
Event Schedule
Northern Colorado’s annual entrepreneurial gathering, Founded in FoCo, starts this morning and continues until Thursday evening. This three-day event showcases the knowledge of the local entrepreneurial community, with over 80 sessions offering practical, proven takeaways on subjects including marketing, creative businesses, AI, operations, finance and revenue, nonprofit strategy, and preventing burnout.
One of the five core principles of coworking is collaboration, so this year’s theme, Organizational Mutual Aid, is right up our alley. The Cohere staff is delighted to function as Connectors during the 2026 event. We will be meeting people and introducing individuals to one another who have shared interests, issues, and complementary ideas.
In addition to sessions and workshops, social events will be held each evening, a fantastic opportunity to meet new people and build relationships.
Ticket Prices range from $100 to pay-what-you-can, no questions asked.

Coworking isn’t just about having a quiet space to work, although that’s a definite benefit. It’s about the community. The community of members, the community of Fort Collins, and the wider community of coworking, remote, creative, and independent workers. No matter which genre of community spirit you favor, there’s an event in Fort Collins this spring that suits your style.
