In a market rife with coworking, Coalition Coworking is trying to stand out in Chicago with industry-specific workspaces.
The New York-based company opened its second Chicago location, called Coalition: Impact, in late 2014 at 405 West Superior St. In 2013, the company entered Chicago with Coalition: Energy, its first specialized workspace, at 18 S. Michigan Ave.
Co-founder David Rotbard, who is based in New York, said he envisioned Coalition: Impact as a place to foster a “community within a community.” He sees it as a place for entrepreneurs to connect to the larger impact and coworking communities in Chicago.
