Naturally, that extends to the work environment. Enter coworking, stage right!
Over the past decade, coworking has rapidly risen in popularity all over the world. It no longer caters only to freelancers and start-ups but attracts a wide range of people from different industries, as well as large organizations, like Microsoft, Google and Bank of America. The concept of coworking has transformed office culture as we know it.
