Abstract: The adventure of the Research Group on Collaborative Spaces (RGCS) started as a working group in 2014. Gathering researchers from Paris, London and Montreal, it aimed at exploring and understanding further collaborative spaces and their relationships through multiple dimensions (work, innovation, management, knowledge, urban geography, competitive advantage, mobility, etc.). People from different fields (e.g.,management, organization studies, sociology of work, urban sociology, economic geography, philosophy, anthropology...) joined what was and still is a very exciting discussion. As "spaces and places whose facilities, aesthetics codes, temporalities, enacted values, atmospheres, and spatial configurations are aimed at fostering horizontal collaborations" (de Vaujany et al., 2018: 102), "collaborative spaces" pervade urban landscapes and more and more, our countryside. Coworking spaces, makerspaces, Fablabs, hackerspaces and labs in general, both internal or external (independent) embody and condense the search for open collaborations and horizontality which has been for along time at the heart our societies and their ‘management'.
