HotDesk, a workspace sharing platform, has received funding from Graham and Linda Huddy, former owners of a mining services business. The couple has taken a 25% stake in the company, which aims to connect Australian startups and entrepreneurs with shared office space. HotDesk founder Steve Glaveski believes that co-working provides a collaborative environment that fosters idea-sharing and boosts morale.
The new investment will allow HotDesk to develop its branding and online content, creating a website that resonates with its target market and content that users will want to share. Graham Huddy sees technology playing a vital role in the future direction of all businesses and believes that HotDesk has the potential to help connect supply and demand in the rapidly changing world of traditional office space within major cities.
