Why is coworking growing so quickly?
Coworking spaces are a great option for startups and self-employed professionals who can’t afford to maintain an office. Typically, coworking spaces suit startups and freelancers due to the pay-as-you-use business model.
Coworking was an idea made current and popular in 2005 by Brad Neuberg, a software developer from San Francisco.
Coworking is different to incubators and business accelerators, as these models can often overlook the social aspect that coworking offers.
According to the business and technology research firm Forester, an estimated 50 per cent of workers (globally) will seek to work remotely by 2020.
It is thought that the number of available coworking spaces worldwide is doubling each year.
