JellyWeek is inspiring people all over the world and throughout France to get involved in coworking.
So what’s it all about?
Does Jelly mean Coworking ? Does Coworking mean Jelly?
It’s an interesting question. You can own a coworking space and not offer Jelly, or participate in Jelly but never join a coworking space. Sounds confusing? It isn’t, but some people are still unfamiliar with the Jelly ethos and are hesitant to get involved.

Yesterday was the first Jelly event in Languedoc.
A group of a dozen strangers of at least 4 different nationalities 'went to work' in a coffee shop in Montpellier.
It was a very enjoyable and interesting day and I’d recommend Jelly to anyone that likes meeting people face-to-face and usually works…

carol hodgson said… Hi Annette, thanks for the friend invite. My partner Charles and I live in Grantham (England) but own a mobile in Argeles sur Mer. We work in Argeles in the summer as couriers for Holidaybreak, ie Eurocamp and Keycamp, so spend a good amount of time over there. this coming year, we will be working in Collioure. We love this part of France, and maybe one day we will be able to meet up
regards Carol

Jane Minton said… Not sure I can make it tomorrow, though I'll probably just be working at home as usual! I saw your post about events in Jan and then realised I'm back in London from 14th for work, so will miss the Herault date. Never mind. I'm following Languedoc Jelly on Twitter now. I think we'll be back in Italy by April, so we won't get back to France until the autumn I expect.
