What does GCUC stand for?

GCUC – Global Coworking Unconference Conference

Why do you call it juicy?

We noticed when you say the acronym GCUC it sounds a lot like “juicy”.

What is an unconference?

An unconference is a session in which the attendees choose the topics of discussion. It’s basically a day of crowd-sourced content. Because the attendees themselves run it, it functions as more of an open conversation. Check out our unconference video here.

Where will GCUC be hosted this year?

New York City, baby! GCUC is headed back to the Big Apple! GCUC 2018 will take place at 117 W 46th Street, New York, NY 10036 at the Convene location right off of Times Square.

If for some reason I can’t attend do you offer refunds?

No, I’m sorry we do not. You can re-sell your ticket (if it explicitly says that it is transferable). We recommend the GCUC Facebook group or the Coworking Google group. Contact stormy@gcuc.co after the sale so we can change the name on your ticket and conference badge.

Early bird, week out and door tickets are non transferable. Some other tickets can be transferred one time as long as the request is submitted before 9am on April 16th 2018.

If you purchased a ticket package, the package may not be broken up in any way. It can only be transferred to one person one time.

How do I get invited to the GCUC attendees-only Facebook group?

If you buy a ticket you’ll be invited. If for some reason you were not please email us at info@gcuc.co.
