“We really believe in providing real value to our local community to improve, engage and inspire the Tech ecosystem in Miami. You don’t need to work for a foundation or the government to try and make a change”. said Alejandro Anez, CityDesk’s co-founder “Miami is one of the most segregated cities in the US, there needs to be less ego involved, a change of attitude and more collaboration between us if we want to improve. If you have a skill that you can teach that might be of value to others, don’t be afraid to share it and help your community, find a way to share your gift.”

Luna Vega a fashion marketing consultant from NYC said: “I really had a hard time finding a coworking space in Miami that really cared about my needs, everyone wanted me to sign a 6 months or 1 year lease when I was only going to be in town for 2 months or even had a culture of elitism by brushing me off saying that I had to first to ‘apply’ to be a member. At CityDesk i was able to find exactly what I needed: flexible terms, friendly environment and a really cool place to shoot my videos. The community helped me create the first Miami YouTubers Meetup, connecting me with other YouTubers in Miami to share ideas, feedback and meet cool people. ”
