Our Vision and Mission

Vision

A Scotland supported by a thriving Connected Hubs Network in rural and urban places.

A Scotland where every individual and business has access to high-quality, community-focused, independent workspaces.

A Scotland enriched by hubs embedded in their local community that build inclusivity, safety, sustainability, and resilience.

Mission

To work with independent community hubs and coworking spaces to build a Connected Hubs Network for Scotland.

To develop a network that is greater than the sum of its parts—driving local economic development and social regeneration across Scottish communities.

Objectives

  • To connect the operators of independent hubs across Scotland, enabling mutual support and collaboration.
  • To design and implement a Connected Hubs Network tailored to the needs of hub operators—including its activities, resourcing, funding model, and legal structure.
  • To cultivate a network with shared values and a consistent ethos, empowering hub operators to confidently refer users between spaces.
  • To share best practices and proven approaches that support both commercial success and community / local impact.
  • To develop a collective agenda that reflects the needs and ambitions of the whole network, rather than being driven by individual priorities.
