Coworking has been growing in popularity over the last few years.
And it’s easy to see why.
The Harvard Business Review wrote a piece about coworking spaces back in 2015, and if anything, their data is only more relevant now.
“There seems to be something special about coworking spaces. As researchers who have, for years, studied how employees thrive, we were surprised to discover that people who belong to them report levels of thriving that approach an average of 6 on a 7-point scale. This is at least a point higher than the average for employees who do their jobs in regular offices, and something so unheard of that we had to look at the data again.”
London coworking spaces are some of the most advanced in the world, so it is easy to see why everyone from innovative Start-Ups to established, multi-national companies choose to locate there.
