Co-Working Spaces Come Back

Demand for shared workspaces is heating up again… but this time, it’s from major corporations expanding their satellite footprints to bring their remote workforce back into the office.
Why It Hits: No one wants to return to the office, especially to the typical, bare-bones satellite locations. In contrast, co-working spaces offer pleasing aesthetics, included perks, and diverse spaces for whatever work needs to be done. By renting them out, companies can both immediately secure the square footage they need to bring workers back en masse and entice them to actually want to come in.
Between The Desks: WeWork walked so these shared-office startups could run, according to The WSJ.
Co-working spaces in the US have climbed back up to 8,800 locations. And instead of one company dominating the market, most of the new entrants are single-site operators.
Single-site operators have grown 66% to 3,500 locations in just the past three years — double the growth rate of the top 20 largest co-working rental firms.
And the sector is only expected to grow, especially as co-working accounts for 2.2% of all office space and is estimated to reach 10% in the near future, per data firm Yardi.
Last Meeting: Between new hybrid-working models and economic uncertainty, many companies are trying to stay flexible with their office footprints… making co-working spaces an attractive option. That has led blue-chip brands like Pfizer, Amazon, JPMorgan Chase, Anthropic, and Lyft to embrace them. If they can’t get employees to move back to their official offices, they’re figuring they may as well set up offices closer to them.
Next Visit: Prepare for some companies to seek out unique co-working spaces to not only woo current employees but also pique the interest of potential new ones in the area.
