skyrise-logoI came across Skyrise today via a comment on AVC.

You all know I’m a community guy (see Horizon).

It appears Skyrise will enable (they are not live yet) community for commercial spaces.

I definitely agree there is a compelling opportunity to help those who work in the same building meet, network, and do more business together. I’ve spoken to several entrepreneurs over the past couple years who were thinking about making an attempt at solving this.

Co-Working spaces like Impact HUB Seattle already put a big emphasis on networking within their membership base. I suspect commercial office buildings will start making it part of their value proposition eventually.

Perhaps, Skyrise will be the platform to help them do it.
