Basestation Bytes | Autumn 2025
Kia ora koutou,
Welcome to our end of Autumn newsletter!
Let's dive into what's happening in the world of coworking as the weather gets cooler...
Bus stops and access
The bus stops have been installed on Durham Street and there has been minimal disruption to our business-as-usual activities and more importantly to the coffee from Folk! There's a handy 10 minute parking zone directly outside the building which means you can still pop in for your daily brew.

Techweek inspired blog with Randal Hyde from TechnologyWise
As it’s the start of Techweek this week; Aotearoa’s festival for tech that’s good for the world - we thought it would be a good excuse to catch up with some of our residents in the technology sector at Basestation. One of the longest standing companies here is TechnologyWise, we sat down to kōrero with Randal Hyde, one of the technologists on the team.
Who uses coworking spaces?
Coworking has its roots in the tech space. Many people see the independent c-base in Berlin, Germany as being the ‘origin story’ for the coworking movement. Formed in 1995, c-base saw itself as the hub of the Berlin hacker scene with a purpose to increase knowledge and skills pertaining to computer software, hardware and data networks. This type of setup then became copied and replicated globally, especially in San Francisco where Silicon Valley had become well established and was growing from strength to strength.
