![Client 5-Star Review for Coworking Space in Richmond - Inspire9]()
Jonte Shaw, Wrapper
"Inspire9 is the perfect base for a growing business. After an extensive search across Melbourne, I9 was the top choice for:
-Location: it's across the street from Richmond Station with easy access to all parts of Melbourne and it's a short walk to excellent coffee shops.
- Facilities: great working spaces and meeting rooms, heaps of natural light, full kitchen, bathrooms & showers - everything you need.
- Vibe: the main thing you notice when you walk into I9, as I'm sure Dennis Denuto would attest to, is the vibe. It's incredibly friendly, welcoming and energetic.
I9 is incredibly accommodating with new team members and offers flexible memberships. Our team loves it and it’s perfect for building Wrappr.

Mhairi McKay-Stewart, Onside
"Inspire9 is the perfect workspace for our company. We are a small team, but we never feel it at Inspire9 because we are always surrounded by so many awesome people who make us feel at home in this space. The i9 team are warm and genuine – real people who are always happy to help, or to hear feedback, and keeping us well-stocked with snacks and oat milk."
