Los Angeles incubator/accelerator Be Great Partners announced their launch of 9 new co-working spaces set to be located throughout the greater Los Angeles area at the first Be Great Fest, an exclusive black tie, red carpet event celebrating the Los Angeles startup community, on Tuesday, Sept. 17, 2013.

At Be Great Fest, Be Great Partners announces their launch of these co-working spaces set to open in Santa Monica, Downtown LA, Beverly Hills, Culver City, and Pasadena, among other locations. The new offices, known as Be Great Labs, will total 110,000 square feet and be available to LA startups through an affordable, no-contract monthly membership.

Mayor Garcetti’s team was amongst the hundreds in attendance at Be Great Fest, showing their support of Be Great Partner’s campaign to “Incubate LA.” Be Great Partners has an investment fund of $6 million dollars they plan to invest in 500 startups to help take Los Angeles from the No. 3 to the No. 1 startup community in the world.

Representatives from the Mayor’s office presented Be Great Partners with a signed certificate from the Mayor who shares their vision to bolster Los Angeles’ startups and transform the city into a new tech hub.

Be Great Partners is also set to start a new modular development program called Be Great Brain. An on-demand service, Be Great Brain gives startups affordable access to Be Great Partners’ top developers, designers and out-bound sales. Headquartered in the famous Variety building in the Miracle Mile, this expansion will allow to fully grow LA’s startup ecosystem to its potential.
