Working alone or with a fixed group can limit your imagination and ideas. Human beings tend to improve, learn more, innovate, generate ideas and exude positivity when they interact and collaborate with different people. And, small business and startups look for the right kind of environment which leads to visualising more concepts and scaling businesses.
This is where collaborative workspaces, or shared workspaces, play a pivotal role.
Once considered as an extension of startups and freelancers, now organisations of all sizes are transforming and bringing collaborative workspaces under their fold.
The trend of shared workspaces is gaining steam in India, and as per a study by JLL, the segment is expected to receive $400 million investments in 2018. The key drivers to this growing popularity will be cost, infrastructure, networking, collaboration and growth.
In this backdrop, one of the shared workspaces that is satiating the office needs of all kinds of business sizes, right from freelancers to SMBs to big organisations is-WeWork. It’s a global network of workspaces where companies and people grow together. WeWork offers cutting edge shared workspaces, which is a dream of majority of employees who are in awe of off-beat office spaces offered by global companies.
WeWork, a global network of shared workspaces, has a mix of all elements, and encourages companies to move beyond cubicles.
