In 2017, Malcolm noticed that coworking spaces across Asia-Pacific operated in isolation with no shared visibility or cross-community connection. He created Free Coworking Day: a single coordinated day where spaces would open their doors simultaneously. Starting from zero, he reached out individually to every operator. 90+ spaces across 120 Asia-Pacific locations participated, placing Sarawak on a regional map it had never appeared on before. The initiative ran every first Thursday of the month until COVID-19 made it impossible in 2020.

I'm relocating to Banja Luka in early July 2026 — drawn there by someone I care about, and by genuine curiosity about a region I've grown to like. If your organisation works in a way that could include someone based in BiH — remote, hybrid, or otherwise — I'd love to have that conversation.
