Jelly! A Casual Working Event.
What is Jelly?
Jelly is a casual working event. It’s taken place in over a hundred cities where people have come together (in a person’s home, a coffee shop, or an office) to work for the day. We provide chairs and sofas, wireless internet, and interesting people to talk to, collaborate with, and bounce ideas off.
You bring a laptop (or whatever you need to get your work done) and a friendly disposition.
Watch this video about Jelly, or read about it in Wired.
Why do you do this?
Jelly started in NYC in February of 2006 when roommates Amit and Luke realized that they loved working from home, but they missed the creative brainstorming, sharing, and camaraderie of a traditional office. (Office politics, not so much.)
So they started inviting friends to come work from their home one day a week. They soon found that working in close proximity to new and interesting people every couple of weeks resulted in new ideas and interesting conversations.
Emboldened by their early success, they made it a more regular thing. Jelly was born.
Who can come to Jelly?
Anyone!
We see a lot of designers, developers, and internet types, but we’ve also had musicians, cooks, sound designers, tea sommeliers, product designers, photographers, writers, and more.
Some of us are entrepreneurs or freelancers. Others work in an office most of the time, but work at Jelly for fresh ideas and a change of pace.
No matter what you do or what you create, you’re welcome to come to Jelly and share your talent and learn from others.
When is the next one?
The very first Gloucestershire Jelly Day is on Friday 9th April from 9.30am – 4.30pm, Llanthony Warehouse, Gloucester Docks
