What is the International Academic Coworking Network?


The International Academic Coworking Network (IACN) aims to create a joint network of coworking spaces at universities and other higher education institutes to promote exchange and collaboration between spaces, students, researchers, and startups. The IACN provides its members the opportunity to access a workspace at any IACN affiliate location free of charge. In turn, IACN affiliate spaces must make at least one workplace in their coworking space available to other IACN members free of charge. To register your coworking space or lay claim to an existing space on our map, simply click the “Join” button below.


How can I use the International Academic Coworking Network?


Use the map on the Spaces tab to view available university coworking spaces near you! If a space is an IACN affiliate space, you can view further information on the space's offers, opening hours, address, and contact details. Further, you are able to book a workplace via the digital reservation system on the IACN platform. This is free of charge but only possible when your institution is also an IACN member. To become a member as well as book and use a workplace in an IACN affiliate space you must be a student or researcher at a university whose coworking space is already an IACN affiliate space. View the map to check if the coworking space of your university is an IACN affiliate space. If yes, please sign up as a user! If not, do not hesitate to motivate your space to join us!
