Sofia Stolberg shares what apparently small (but well planned) actions taken by the Piloto 151 team around Valentines Day reminded her about intentional community building, and the "vibes" it gives your spaces.

In the newest edition of Undercurrents (brought to you by Syncaroo) we explore the evolution of coworking revenue stacks, with actionable insights from Anne Olsen (The Shop Workspace), Meagan Slavin (25N Coworking), Sheila Burmistrova (Narra Collective), Sofia Stolberg (Piloto 151), Tobi Skovron (Cube.co) and Gregg Kackowitz (Bond Collective).

Founder of both PilotoMail and Piloto 151 moderated the panel and shared the origin story of the iconic pilot pigeon brand, which emerged when observing pigeons at their first location’s plaza in Puerto Rico.

Sofia Stolberg shares that Piloto 151 are expanding to Dorado on April 7th. The new location is designed for teams, solopreneurs, and remote workers looking for more than just office space. It’s where business meets balance
