Co-working is the future of work

Give co-working a try

The co-working movement is taking the business world by storm. It involves people from different organisations sharing a working environment (quite often an office with desks). It’s not a new concept. The basic idea dates back hundreds of years. English coffee houses in the 17th and 18th centuries were early predecessors.

Many people associate co-working with start-up companies looking for flexible access to low cost premises and networking opportunities.

Beyond corporate walls

Yet larger companies with their own corporate real estate are trying it, too. Many times, this takes the form of encouraging mobile-equipped employees to work from client sites. But if they have surplus space inside their corporate walls, these larger companies may invite the local business community to work alongside them. Allowing others to work onsite creates corporate real estate porosity, which companies are increasingly considering effective as part of wider marketing, customer engagement and innovation strategies.
