What is The Nest?



The Nest is a collection of tools, technology, resources, and community connections for entrepreneurs and small business startups. It accommodates groups, non-profits, and businesses looking for a meeting space for up to 20 people. Mobile furniture can be reconfigured to meet the needs of the presenter, and a Smart Board is available for presentations. Study Rooms may be booked to use as break-out rooms. A Meeting Owl, a video streaming device, allows for outside groups to watch and participate.

The Nest will host Small Business Workshops and Mentorship from:

  • E for All
  • Worcester Center for Women & Enterprise 
  • Nichols College 
  • One-on-One Legal advice for Business Start-ups with David Dupont 
  • The Webster-Dudley Business Alliance

The Nest will be used as a Co-Working space when workshops are not being held.
