Think Space

Peter Chee founded Thinkspace in 2008. He had bought a 40,000-square-foot building with his dad and wanted to re-create the collaborative environment he'd enjoyed during his startup days.

He turned half of the building into the original Thinkspace location. He now also leases space in Redmond, Washington for his 2nd location.

His spaces focus mostly on the tech startup community and are office heavy because that's what his members want... but they're also modern and community-focused.

Peter recently had some reckoning to do with himself about where to focus his time and he decided to get some perspective, he'd buy one-way flights to different cities until he was tired of being on the road. He worked from coworking spaces around the US for three months with a stopover in Chicago to run a marathon.

He shares his story, what's working today in his business model, and his unique approach to getting clarity on what's next.
