Managing Director
CurrentThere is growing demand from communities to meet in local spaces. But it can be hard work finding and booking these spaces.Community spaces like halls, churches and sports clubs have incredible facilities. But they have peaks and troughs in their usage and managing the admin of bookings enquiries and payments can clog up time.Councils are continually under pressure to provision new facilities and spaces. They struggle to get accurate and timely data to measure service levels or monitor the impact their investment is having in their communities.To enable thriving communities we need to think differently about how we connect up supply & demand.SpacetoCo is an innovative marketplace platform and bookings automation software that creates the glue between communities, spaces and the councils that govern them.For communities, SpacetoCo is a space finder and booking’s aggregator. Anyone can find, book and pay for local spaces.For community/Council spaces, SpacetoCo is a bookings automation tool. Any facility or venue can affordably and rapidly start taking bookings online. We do this with no upfront costs or IT projects. We eliminate invoicing, payment collection and bond processes. For Councils, SpacetoCo is a marketplace. We help distribute supply and demand across a network of spaces and provide accurate bookings data across facilities. The network effect helps promote and unlock other spaces in localities.We work with Council and community lead spaces across NZ and Australia. We have a growing marketplace with thousands of community users, who love how easy we make it for them to manage their bookings, and do more locally! We advise Auckland Council on their activation strategy for rural halls. We're looking to partner with Councils across NZ who are looking to solve the enduring problem of connecting communities to local spaces. If you're looking for an innovative, different model, we'd love to be your partner in enabling community.
