Sandwell Start-Up Hub

Sandwell Start-Up Hub

Are you an aspiring entrepreneur or do you have a growing business in Sandwell? Come and work from the Sandwell Start-Up Hub – our supportive, innovative co-working environment in Oldbury.

Designed to give local businesses the tools they need to flourish, the Sandwell Start-Up Hub offers desks, resources, collaborative spaces, free WiFi and networking opportunities.

The Sandwell Start-Up Hub has open-plan office space within a hot-desking environment, equipped with 60 desks and free WiFi. There, you can work alongside entrepreneurs and new businesses, and access meeting rooms.

We understand the importance of having a productive workspace so we’re excited to provide it to local businesses at no cost for the first year (until September 2024).

The hub is on the top floor of Jack Judge House in Oldbury (B69 2AJ). This is the former Oldbury library building, opposite Sandwell Council House (where the library is now housed).

It has three areas:

Collaboration Zone
Where entrepreneurs can engage in meaningful networking and spark collaborations.

Quiet Zone
For focused work, allowing you to immerse yourself in your tasks without distraction – for maximum productivity.

Event Zone
Where we will host business support organisations to deliver informative sessions on a variety of topics.

We’ve designed the Sandwell Start-Up Hub to be more than a physical space. Together we will build a community of like-minded individuals, supporting one another’s growth.

Whether your small established business is looking to collaborate, or you’re a new entrepreneur seeking resources, we want this hub to be your gateway to success.

The Sandwell Start-Up Hub is open from Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.

You can park at Sainsbury’s on Freeth Street, just opposite the Sandwell Start-Up Hub. Parking is free for three hours and you can pay to extend that time through Horizon Parking.

The entrance to the Sandwell Start-Up Hub is to the rear of Jack Judge House. Follow the signs, press the buzzer and we will let you in.
