Make a desk your own
Enjoy the flexibility and community of coworking with a desk that is reserved exclusively for you.
A UBC dedicated desk gives you a permanent place to work within a professionally managed shared office. Settle into the same desk each day, work alongside other professionals and enjoy the support and facilities of a fully serviced UBC business centre.
Dedicated desk membership is ideal for freelancers, consultants, remote workers and small business owners who want more consistency than occasional coworking without the cost or commitment of a private office.
What is a dedicated desk?
A dedicated desk is your own reserved workspace within a shared office. Unlike a hot desk, the same desk remains available for you throughout your membership, so you can return to a familiar place each working day.
You will still benefit from working alongside other hUBClub members, with access to a professional business environment, centre support and opportunities to connect with the wider UBC community.
