Brickyard headquarters combines top office amenities like private meeting booths, iMacs and 10-Gig internet with health and wellness facilities like a fully-equipped gym, sauna and a cold plunge tub.

Launched by five veteran entrepreneurs, including Bellhop founders Cam Doody and Matt Patterson. Brickyard’s entrepreneurs are invited to utilize this space and leave everything else behind in favor of intensity-of-focus on starting and growing a company.
