海归创客周小驰：用咖啡香织就创业者的“无压社交网”

周小驰是土生土长的长沙人，受英国社区咖啡馆启发，留学归来后他在长沙西湖公园旁创办了“猿素咖啡”，将咖啡与创业空间结合，为“数字游民”提供24小时开放的移动办公“第三空间”。他希望以咖啡为媒介，聚集有激情的创业者，让这里成为他们的办公室、会议室和会客厅。

Zhou Xiaochi, a born-and-bred Changsha native, drew inspiration from British community cafes during his studies abroad. After returning, he founded "Yuan Su Coffee" beside West Lake Park in Changsha, blending coffee culture with co-working space to craft a 24/7 "third space" for digital nomads. He hopes coffee can serve as a medium to gather passionate entrepreneurs, turning the venue into their office, meeting room, and salon.

周小驰每天在店里办公，接触到众多有趣的创业团队，他的咖啡馆每周会举办2至3场社群破圈交流活动，助力年轻人碰撞灵感、拓宽职业视野。如今“猿素咖啡”已聚集超千名“数字游民”，他正整合资源稳步推进，让来长沙创业的青年在没有压迫感的环境中感受“失败了再来”的温暖，展现创业之城的“终极浪漫”。

Working at the cafe daily, Zhou interacts with numerous innovative startup teams. His cafe hosts 2-3 cross-community networking events weekly, helping young people spark inspiration and broaden professional horizons. Now housing over 1,000 digital nomads, "Yuan Su Coffee" is steadily integrating resources to provide young entrepreneurs in Changsha with a stress-free haven where "falling down is just a step up"—epitomizing the ultimate romance of a startup-driven city.
