Coworking is more than just a desk and some WiFi. At Basestation, there are a broad range of added bonuses, perks and reasons why you should try coworking with us.
10th Birthday Party
On Wednesday 6th November 2024 Basestation hosted a very special birthday party to celebrate 10 years of coworking in Tauranga.
Celebrating 10 Years of Basestation: A Decade of Growth and Community Impact (Part Two)
In our last post, we shared how Basestation came to life, transforming from an oversized office into a collaborative home for Tauranga’s creatives and entrepreneurs. Today, as Basestation celebrates its 10th anniversary, we look back at the journey since opening day. From quirky tech artifacts to local art, a beloved coffee shop, and spaces for makers, Basestation has evolved into a bustling community that continues to shape Tauranga’s CBD.
Celebrating 10 Years of Basestation: The Story of a Creative Hub (Part One)
On November 6, Basestation marks a decade since its founding – ten years of providing a collaborative home for innovators, entrepreneurs, and remote workers in Tauranga. To celebrate, we sat down with two of the original founders, Steven Vincent and Pascale Hyboud-Peron, to revisit the journey that turned an office with too much space into a pioneering coworking community. The story of Basestation is one of creativity, resourcefulness, and a shared vision for an entrepreneurial community, so we’re sharing it in two parts. Here’s how it all began.

Kōrero with Ash Cross: Raising a hard of hearing child
Loud Shirt Day has always been a big deal in the Basestation social calendar - a day when we dress up in our most eccentric tops! Underneath all the fun though is a more serious message, a call of support for all New Zealanders who access sound with cochlear implants. This prompted us to sit down and kōrero with one of our residents, Ash who has a young daughter, Emilia, who was born hard of hearing.
Mental health and coworking
As it’s Mental Health Awareness Week, we thought it would be a good opportunity to look at the correlation of good mental health and coworking.
Māori Language Week
To end Māori language week, we wanted to share a blog which captures a kōrero we had with three people who have connections with Basestation. We wanted a variety of perspectives, lived experiences and their relationship to Aoteraoa and Te Reo Māori. We spoke to Manaia, Erin, and Pascale.
