Getting a Build Space
Hello, we are a veteran team in the Dallas area (Mckinney, specifically) and have recently lost our school workspace due to various reasons that at this point are irrelevant. We have never had to find an off-campus workspace and have no idea how to go about this. I know it's close to the start of build season, and we have a backup, but this happened to us last-minute and we simply don't know how to approach businesses about this. Our main sponsor doesn't have room and doesn't want the liability, and we have thought about asking a local storage company to sponsor us by providing a storage unit or something but again don't know how to approach them. How did your teams get their off-campus build spaces, and do you know of any opportunities in the Mckinney area? We also want to find a space very close to the school, which can be an issue given that there aren't any engineering firms within 10 minutes other than our main sponsor. We could work at another company's space, but as I've said we don't know how to approach them since there's not necessarily a direct impact our team has on their business. Anyways, I'm going to stop before I get too repetitive, and hope that the wonderful community here can give us some good advice.
