COWORKING FESTIVAL GERMANY

Januar 29th, 2025

Open House

Curious about how an alternative coworking space and social club driven by social justice — not capitalism — operates? Ever wanted to check out BIWOC* Rising, but never found the right time? Join us tomorrow for our Open House! From 7 to 9 PM, explore our space and take part in an open roundtable discussion on the impact of the far-right shift in Germany and the importance of coworking spaces in this context. Our space — usually exclusively for BIW*oC & TIN*BIPoC — will be open to everyone.

ROUNDTABLE
In a time where the rise of the far-right in Germany is having tangible impacts on various aspects of life, we invite you to an open discussion at our roundtable on the role coworking spaces play in this context. Together, we’ll explore the importance of safer spaces for marginalized groups and the challenges posed by current political shifts. What responsibility do we all share in fostering more just working environments?

WE ARE PART OF GERMANY’S FIRST COWORKING FESTIVAL!
From September 23-27 2024, the Coworking Festival Germany launches its first nationwide celebration, uniting coworking spaces across all 16 of Germany’s federal states. This distributed event highlights the power of coworking to foster innovation, connect remote workers, and support economic development in both urban and rural areas.

EquiNet Prelaunch – End of Year Networking Event

November 3, 2025

Let’s network for equality – ending the year connected and empowered!
Economic exclusion is real, and many of us have experienced it this year.
Whether you’re a migrant or BIPOC entrepreneur, founder, freelancer, artist, or just starting out, we want to hear your needs and concerns.

Our new project EquiNet calls for more justice by empowering entrepreneurs from marginalized communities, helping businesses to turn diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) into action.

Before our official launch in early 2026, join us for our End-of-Year Networking Event:
Online: Tuesday, 18 November | 18:00–19:30
In Person: Thursday, 4 December | 18:00–21:00 | BIWOC* Rising Workspace
In-person: 18th December 18:30 – 20:30 EquiNet

Let’s gather, chat, and connect with like-minded changemakers to promote equality and diversify business ecosystems!

Workshop: Mindfulness – your Superpower at Work and in Life

Oktober 2, 2025

Mindfulness can support us in both life and work, helping us notice, pause, and build healthier patterns. In this session, Ly Pham from bcom.social will guide participants through what mindfulness is (and what it isn’t), what kinds of changes it can bring, and simple practices to take home or into the workplace.

QTI*BIWOC Mentoring Event – Creative Writing

You want to share your stories, but don’t know where to start? Then come to our QTI*BIWOC mentoring event, speed dating style! Our mentees will be given 10 minutes with each of our skilled mentors to learn everything they need to know about how to start writing, use their creative resources to the fullest, and bring their own narratives and ideas to life!

INTERSECTIONAL WORK & SOCIAL CLUB

BIWOC* Rising is the first intersectional work & social club in Berlin and Germany. This safer space is exclusively for women, trans, inter and non-binary people who identify as Black, indigenous or of Colour! Through training programs, empowerment workshops, and a work-desk in the heart of Berlin-Kreuzberg, BIWOC* Rising is creating a new working culture – a working culture that transcends the white, homogenous, capitalist one that has been a core driver of gentrification and marginalization in Berlin.
