Renaissance Entrepreneurship Center at Bayview is a coworking space with offerings for businesses of all stages. Specifically, its goal is to launch and maximize new and existing Bay Area small businesses — and they’ve helped open more businesses than any other nonprofit in the area. Therefore, if you want to achieve personal, financial, and social transformation in your business, then the services, offerings and workspaces at Renaissance are what you need. Whether you want help with training, business incubation, raising capital, or networking, there are resources to help you fill any knowledge gaps and make connections with essential people who will help your business grow and thrive.
At the Bayview location, you can try out a variety of programs tailored to fit your business and your needs. These programs are where Renaissance really stands out from other coworking spaces. They include Contractors of Color, Biz Fit, SF Shines, and the Women’s Entrepreneurship Program, which is inclusive of trans and cis women. There are also resources like the Financing Resource Center, where you can benefit from free expert advice and one-on-one consultation with experts. Likewise, the Women’s Leadership Council can also help you with financial support through its own contributions and fundraising efforts, which it puts toward supporting female entrepreneurs and underserved markets.
Notably, because Renaissance is dedicated to empowering entrepreneurs, it also hosts a variety of events that range from casual networking events — like Coffee & Community — to more intensive courses, like the 10-week Business Prep Class. You can also learn about more niche topics, like grant writing, digital marketing and preventative business law.
In terms of the workspace here, the Bayview location offers private offices, cubicles and shared meeting spaces. Additionally, the surrounding area has several restaurants and cafes that are perfect for a quick break, as well as bus and rail stations that make for an easy commute.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
While storage in coworking spaces is generally limited, and mostly reserved for members with dedicated desks or private offices, you should always check with the coworking operator about additional storage solutions. Fill out the form on the right side of the page to reach out to them and learn all about the available options.
-
Open desks may be the ideal choice if you thrive in a collaborative environment and value the opportunity to connect with fellow coworkers. Dedicated desks, on the other hand, provide a designated space with shared community amenities, catering to those who seek a balance between privacy and interaction.
For ultimate focus and private interactions, private offices are best for solo individuals and teams that seek uninterrupted productivity.
Selecting the most suitable workspace for you typically hinges on your work style and preferences, but it can also be determined by the type of work that you do, its duration, and whether you work alone or in a team.
-
Bayview Center operates during regular business hours, which are listed above. For any requests or requirements outside of these hours, please contact the coworking operator directly.
-
Flexibility is the cornerstone of coworking, so you always have the option to adjust your workspace to match your current needs. With month-to-month memberships, you can effortlessly upgrade, downgrade, or even switch between different coworking plans.
While the standard practice is to change memberships only once the current one ends, Renaissance Entrepreneurship Center may be able to offer additional options, so it’s best to reach out to their staff directly.
-
Most coworking space amenities are open to all members, regardless of the membership plan. Meeting rooms require prior reservation, and private offices are exclusively available to those with subscription packages. However, the lounge, kitchen, and breakout spaces are open to everyone. Complimentary amenities are also available to all, while ancillary services can be purchased or negotiated individually with Renaissance Entrepreneurship Center.
