INDUSTRY

What INDUSTRY does

INDUSTRY is a private US co-working and creative workspace provider operating three locations across Denver (RiNo Station), Salt Lake City (Granary District), and Detroit (under development). Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Denver, the company generates revenue through recurring subscriptions for private office leases and co-working memberships, supplemented by event space rentals at its locations. The core differentiator is adaptive re-use of architecturally significant historic buildings—most notably a 1943 foundry in Salt Lake City and the 1922 Thomas Jefferson Intermediate School in Detroit (registered on the National Register of Historic Places)—transformed into modern creative workspaces with conference rooms, kitchens, outdoor areas, and dog-friendly amenities.

The customer base is broadly horizontal, spanning startups, SMBs, and select enterprises across technology, healthcare, real estate, fitness, and food & beverage (named tenants include General Assembly, OneTrust, Greystar, Corepower, Convercent, Snooze, Angle Health, and others). Marketing is conducted primarily through location-specific Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter accounts, with leasing inquiries routed to direct email and phone contacts at each site. The company has no public pricing, no disclosed funding history, no app or platform technology layer, and operates with a headcount of 11-50 employees under the legal entity INDUSTRY Denver, governed by Colorado law.

Growth is geographically led rather than vertically scaled: the Detroit location is being co-developed with Invest Detroit and Midtown Detroit Inc., extending a civic-development partnership model that could shape future site selection. The company has no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, no API or SDK surface, and no enterprise software product; its competitive position rests on physical asset curation, neighborhood selection in emerging creative districts, and a curated cross-industry tenant community rather than technology differentiation.
