What is coworking and how does it work?

Coworking is a shared workspace model in which several companies and professionals work in the same place, each with their own desk or area, while sharing common services such as internet, meeting rooms and rest areas. It is a flexible alternative to renting a traditional office.

How a coworking space works

It's simple: you pay a fee, usually monthly, and get access to a desk in a space shared with other companies and professionals. There's no need to invest in furniture, set up utilities or take care of the upkeep of the space.

• Access to a desk in a shared area

• Basic services included, such as internet and cleaning

• Flexibility to come and go with no minimum commitment

• Working alongside other companies and professionals in the same space

What a coworking fee usually includes

A monthly coworking fee usually covers much more than just the desk, so you can work out the real cost with no surprises:

• High-speed internet, via Ethernet or Wi-Fi

• Furniture and basic equipment for your workstation

• Daily cleaning of the facilities

• Occasional access to meeting rooms

• Personal service and reception

Who coworking is the best option for

Not every profile needs the same thing, but coworking tends to be especially cost-effective in these cases:

• Freelancers and self-employed professionals who want a professional environment instead of working from home

• Startups and small teams that don't need a fixed office yet

• Professionals who travel often and need an occasional workspace in different cities

• Companies that want to test their business before committing to their own space
