Co-working spaces – what's it all about?

Co-working spaces, where start-ups can rent office space and be part of a community of companies sharing values, challenges and/or target audiences is a rapidly growing movement. The need for arenas where like-minded can work independently but together seems huge. And no wonder really, in an era where industry after industry is being transformed by entrepreneurs driving development in collaboration with big actors, physical meetings with peers and clients is a must.

We have compiled information in a report to provide an overview of co-working spaces as a phenomenon, and goes into further detail with five of them: Embassy, H2 Health Hub, Norrsken, SUP46 and THINGS, all based in Stockholm. These five office facilities address different types of companies, and have different agendas. However, it is the similarities that strikes me most. The members of all of these facilities have many things in common, both when it comes to challenges and success factors. 

The report is available via the link below.
