The Verge OKC is the result of a collaborative effort between Flourish OKC, Inasmuch Foundation and Cortado Ventures that started back in early 2021.

Through brainstorming and developing resources to support OKC’s entrepreneurial community, we realized that it felt isolated and, at times, competitive – rather than connected and collaborative. We needed a way to bring our entrepreneurial community together to be more than the sum of their parts. The result is much more than a coworking space. The Verge OKC is a wildly helpful community of movers, makers, and visionaries creating a supportive environment where great ideas transform into impactful businesses.

As a nonprofit organization, we exist to serve, support, and champion Oklahoma City’s diverse entrepreneurial community. We offer a centralized space for education, curated events, flexible workspaces, and an invaluable network of people and resources. Join our community at The Verge – where ideas take flight.
