Nolich means “knowledge”. And it is that part of how it is pronounced the same word that gives it meaning in English, knowledge /nälij/. Its creators thought that this would be the best name they could give to the first coworking specialized in audiovisuals in Spain. In fact, their desire goes further: they want to become “agents of change” in the Valencian industry. Located in Ruzafa, they have devised a project to rent coworking spaces, postproduction, photo and video sets and meeting or event areas. In addition to other action plans, among which is the crowdfunding or “recovery” of the concept the apprentice.

 In the design of its identity – elaborated by the Valencian Ausias Pérez – the role played by the year 1961 is also important. It does not refer to when they were born. Nor of course to when Nolich was born, since the idea comes from only four years ago. This issue makes sense with the Soviet era and space. In particular, with the military pilot Yuri Gagarin, who actively participated in the space program developed in the USSR. On April 12, 1961, on board the Vostok 1 spacecraft, he was launched into outer space and was the first person to reach and travel through it. “It serves to remind us of all this. I actually love everything that is futuristic and technological. The Russians had Laica, but we have Willy. And beyond this, it allows us to make a little similarity with this project. In a country devastated by the crisis, suddenly we appear and we want to get to the moon and help reactivate the sector. In the end, Nolich will be what we make it.
