Connect St Pete - 1211 1st Avenue North

We host our host our leadership development and networking events at Connect St. Pete twice a month. It's the perfect venue for us! Great for presentations, right in the heart of downtown St. Pete, and a thriving community of passionate entrepreneurs that we now call home.

A truly innovative space that steps outside your normal co-working space that feels cold and lonely... You walk in and feel the warmth and support from both Eric & Josh who have taken their special traits to build a community and support businesses and given us all a space to exist and grow connection and business all in one space.

Connect St. Pete is a hidden gem located in the Downtown St. Pete Edge District. Definitely a "if you know, you know" space - tucked away on the 2nd floor, the charm of this venue is immediately evident the moment you walk in. Josh and Eric started with a vision of creating a coworking community, instead of just a coworking space and that is what you feel when you walk in. It is a versatile space that can be used for meetings, brain storming, co working, parties / get togethers, podcast recording, and more. It is also the home of our Downtown St. Pete Toastmasters club, where we meet every Thursday from 6:30-8p to practice the art of speaking. Our club loves the space and how convenient it is to many downtown amenities. Parking is also a lot easier in this location than other spots downtown. If you are looking for a community that genuinely cares, look no further than Connect St. Pete!

If you’re looking for more than just a coworking space, Connect St. Pete is truly something special. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the energy, collaboration, and genuine sense of community that Josh Naaman and Eric Nutting have worked so hard to create. Josh and Eric are two of the most passionate, welcoming, and community-driven leaders in St. Pete. They don’t just provide a workspace — they’ve built an environment where entrepreneurs, creatives, professionals, and community leaders can connect, grow, and genuinely support one another. Their vision for collaboration and leadership shines through in every event, conversation, and opportunity they create. The space itself is beautiful, professional, and inspiring, but what really sets Connect St. Pete apart is the people. Whether you’re attending a networking event, working for the day, or becoming part of the community long-term, you immediately feel encouraged and included. One of the biggest assets to connecting with this space is that it includes a membership to Sun Leaders. If you don't know about them, check out the space and ask. The Edge District is lucky to have leaders like Josh and Eric investing in people and creating spaces that bring the community together. I highly recommend Connect St. Pete to anyone looking to grow personally, professionally, and relationally.

We hosted our Kidpreneur Summit there last year and it was amazing. It was nice to see so many cool people together including the kids that had businesses. I thought the space was perfect and welcoming for workshops, small summits, networking events, and trainings. Look no further if you are looking for a space where you can grow your business with the community it serves.
