Abstract
This master thesis consist of a case study at Growing Emmen, a coworking space in the North of the Netherlands. Previous research has shown that coworking spaces are places where innovation and new businesses arises. However, not much is known about the determinants of this learning effect. Thus, the following research question will be answered in this master thesis: How do the learning effects inside as well as outside a coworking space, primarily used by self-employed people, take place and how does this contribute to the perception of entrepreneurial success among self-employed people? This master thesis explores this question using data collected through semi-structured interviews, short surveys and desk research. The results of this study show the importance of matching attitudes and values in order to facilitate learning. The results also show that this matching of attitudes and values is largely influences by community building and the impact of management. It should be noted that facilitating a successful learning environment is a very complex process, in which trust and the perception of autonomy are important factors. This master thesis will further go into depth about these processes.
