One of the key takeaways I got from South by Southwest is that Cohere needs to be profitable and pay me a wage if we’re going to be financially sustainable. An important piece of that is hiring an employee who can attend to the paperwork and day to day operations so that I can generate revenue as a “for-hire” community manager and author. What’s in it for you? If you love Cohere and coworking and want the community to be around for a long time, please vote! (space owners: we’ll be able to see if our coworking community can turn a grant into a sustainable enterprise!)

The prize is a $25,000 to $50,000 grant to hire an employee!
