"Portland is unique in that it has so many hidden, undiscovered, inspiring spaces,'' said Eric Shoup, CEO at Peerspace. "When these spaces are not otherwise being used, we make them available for meetings, events, video shoots, parties, and more—providing extra and often needed income to business and venue owners."

Here's what Peerspace's Portland hosts say:

"Peerspace provides all of the tools we need to raise awareness about our space, and has brought in a variety of clients within the first few weeks of being on the platform. Peerspace allows us to make extra income when we are not using the space ourselves, that in turn we can put right back into the studio and continue to grow." Jaylon Butte, owner of People on Mars, a Portland creative studio and specialty barber shop.

"Our light-filled, space in the historic heart of Portland is a unique offering in a city where many of the old creative working spaces have been lost. The brick walls, the original windows, and the timeless feel resonates with so many people who walk through the door. We love to share our space as a creative resource and landing pad for inspiration, and Peerspace offers us a platform to broadcast the details without extra time, effort, or marketing dollars." Scarlet Chamberlin, a Portland-based Peerspace host.

Peerspace has been an impactful part of our story and we are so grateful for the inquiries we receive daily through this platform. We are anticipating even more growth and are excited for what's to come!" Emily Hill, Portland-based venue manager for Tendue.
