In October 2016, Passion Incubator, an early stage technology incubator, launched its co-working space called LeadSpace. LeadSpace’s first location is right in the heart of Yaba’s bustling tech entrepreneurship cluster. According to the LeadSpace team, since the day it first opened for business, demand for its office spaces has been simply amazing

With a bold vision to dominate the shared office business across Africa, LeadSpace has now launched its second location and plans to launch a couple more before the end of the year are ongoing.

LeadSpace provides shared infrastructure (co-working space) for entrepreneurs/founders of small businesses, mid-level corporate executives, freelancers and content creators, through a shared cost model. This means we provide our customers with the very best office facilities and amenities at a fraction of what it would traditionally cost. The best part, is they can pay month to month

In addition, any LeadSpace customer enjoys discounted pricing on a bunch of business support services and discounted daily passes at every other LeadSpace location - in a few months that will mean discounted pricing at LeadSpace locations ALL across Nigeria.
LeadSpace is also expanding its product to include a co-living option. Customers can now work and live, for an extended period of time, from the same location. That means no commute time AT ALL. Our night owls and deadline warriors can now work late and still get some rest altogether.

Standard LeadSpace amenities include access to conference/meeting room, access to training rooms, backup power, super-fast internet – 45mbps, overnight sleeping room, constant flow of freshly made coffee, mail and package handling, document printing, front desk services, unique common areas, an awesome community and discounted ancillary support services.

We cannot wait to host you at any of our locations; we are giving out FREE one day passes to the first 20 people to walk in the door today at our Ojodu location. Please follow the link to show your interest in this on-going promo>> http://theleadspace.co/index.php/test/
