Google BUBS head office (2/6 Tilley Lane, French's Forest, New South Wales). They too are in a shared building with a dentist, quantity surveyor, community driven music therapist and a printing company. Does this make their operation less legitimate or does it simply recognise that they don't need unnecessary infrastructure and overhead to deliver their operations?
