Our Partnership with BLUE GARAGE
Founded in 2024, the BLUE GARAGE is a coworking hub in South London that prides itself on its collaborative space and supportive network for startups and early-stage professionals. With over 38,000 sq. ft, the location is great for creatives, manufacturers, hardware businesses, and many more.
For those that require labs and tools, the BLUE GARAGE has a photoshoot studio, general assembly area, wood and metal work space, as well as a BLUE FACTORY that can assist with print, fabrication, paint and packaging. They also have flexible working spaces for people who need to collaborate and put their ideas together, with options for fixed desks, private studios, and event spaces, catering to all.
One of the many additional offerings of the Lewisham-based spot are the large number of resources available to those within the network, with informative programmes such as the Materialise Innovation Programme, Open Style Lab and Blue Tuesday: Workshop Series. Alongside this, they frequently host events to help like-minded individuals connect, network and learn from industry experts.
Mathys & Squire is a proud partner of the BLUE GARAGE, and we are delighted to continue supporting the hub by sharing our extensive expertise in intellectual property.
Partner Andrew White has played a key role in this collaboration, working closely with the BLUE GARAGE team to deliver meaningful and practical insights to its members. He has presented in workshops, including ‘Aligning your intellectual property and business strategies’, which explored how startups can integrate IP into their broader business goals and consequently gain a competitive advantage. He also has had a role in their Materialise Innovation Programme, a 3-month scheme for material-based businesses that grants attendees the tools, resources, and hands-on support that they need to grow.
As a firm committed to innovation and entrepreneurship, we strongly believe in the mission of the BLUE GARAGE in empowering early-stage businesses and look forward to continuing our partnership.
