In 2020, we rebranded as transformGSO, a name that reflects the transformative power of our space and the amazing community it brings to Greensboro. Since our founding, transformGSO has housed and supported hundreds of businesses and members.


Additionally, the Bain Street property houses downtown’s newest and most flexible meeting and events space, Elm & Bain.
The two transformGSO properties are a pleasant one-minute stroll apart. Members often take a little longer, lingering in the gardens that connect the locations.
The leadership team strives to live and work by 6 Core Values:

Be Authentic
Help us build a fun place to work where we can share our talents and interests.

Empower Others
We value collaboration and cooperation. This is a respectful place where it is safe to share ideas, inspirations, and creativity.

Drive Forward with Purpose
We want to fill our community with people who have a strategic vision and the courage and determination to accomplish that vision.

Think Big!
We value everyone’s hopes, dreams, and visions for the future! All are invited to join and build on the conversation.

Leave the World Better Than You Found It
Through individual action and our business models, we strive to care for the people, economy, and planet.

Embrace Diversity
transformGSO wants to create an inclusive community where everyone feels welcome and can contribute equally.
