Repeated lockdowns have failed to blight the optimism or expansion plans of Melbourne-based co-working hub innovator Tobi Skovron.

With the backing of Flight Centre co-founder and former Rich Lister Geoff Harris, Mr Skovron opened his fourth CreativeCubes hub, a 2000 square metre space at the back of the Lygon Court shopping mall on Carlton’s Lygon Street at the end of August.
