Finding the right office space in Dayton can have a bigger impact on your business than many entrepreneurs realize. The right workspace does more than provide desks and conference rooms. It shapes company culture, helps attract talent, creates opportunities for collaboration, and gives businesses room to grow.
The Hub Powered by PNC Bank was created through a partnership between Entrepreneurs’ Center and the University of Dayton to bring entrepreneurs, small businesses, students, and support organizations together under one roof. Today, it’s home to more than 180 businesses and organizations, making it one of the region’s most collaborative entrepreneurial communities.
Two Hub members recently shared how moving into The Hub has helped them attract talent, strengthen collaboration, and build momentum for the future.
Comparion Insurance Found New Energy at The Hub
After more than a decade in a traditional office setting, Comparion Insurance—an independent agency specializing in personal lines insurance—reached a turning point following the shift toward hybrid work. The company needed a workspace that better reflected its evolving culture while creating an environment employees and clients would enjoy.
“We had been in a traditional office for more than 10 years, but after COVID, more of our team began working in a flexible hybrid model,” shared Jake Andrews, Agency Manager. “We knew we needed a space with a different kind of energy, and The Hub at the Arcade was the perfect fit. We love being surrounded by other businesses in a modern environment rather than a stuffy, outdated office setting.”
That decision delivered immediate results. Since moving into The Hub, Comparion has doubled in size, using its location as a valuable recruiting tool while creating a welcoming environment for clients.
“Being located in the historic Dayton Arcade is also a major advantage—it’s a great recruiting tool, and our customers enjoy visiting us there,” Andrews said. “The central downtown location is ideal for accommodating our agents, who are spread throughout the Dayton metro area, from Centerville to Troy and everywhere in between. My favorite part of The Hub is the historic charm of working in a place like the Arcade. I feel lucky to come to work in such a unique and inspiring building.”
Lavender Home Care Solutions Strengthened Its Regional Presence
For Lavender Home Care Solutions, providing personalized, non-medical in-home care to seniors across Dayton has been its mission since 2009. As demand for dependable home care services continued to grow, the company looked for a centrally located headquarters that would support collaboration and long-term growth.
“We chose The Hub for our Dayton headquarters because it is a historic, reputable, and centrally located building,” explained Bernard Dalichau, CEO and Founder. “With our second office in Centerville, the Dayton location provides an accessible headquarters for our service area. We also enjoy the energy created by students, professionals, and businesses throughout the building.”
The collaborative environment has helped Lavender continue expanding its team, client base, and regional presence.
“Since moving into The Hub, Lavender has continued to expand its team, client base, and presence throughout the Dayton region, further establishing itself as a leading home care provider,” the leadership team shared. “The space gives our leadership team a place to strategically plan, collaborate, and turn ideas into initiatives that support continued growth. Our favorite parts are the conference rooms and rotunda. The views create an inspiring backdrop for our office.”
