The coworking concept or shared office model, arises with the intention of meeting the need for professionals who work independently, but with the benefit of generating work connections between all users, which represents opportunities in the development of their businesses.

In Mexico there are companies dedicated to providing this type of service such as Wework, IOS, Iza Business Center and Regus; Offer that in recent years has been increasing, which has shown that the market is attractive and large so that more participants enter, not only to serve independent but also companies with more staff.

In the same way, this potential demand attracted foreign concepts such as the case of Communal de Peru or locals such as Co-mother that focus on a specific segment of the market.

The offer of coworking spaces ranges from large iconic and lower-rise buildings that occupy 100% for this concept, to some flats rented by these companies.

In the case of Wework, they managed to make the design of their spaces replicate the essence of the neighborhood and its community, which became very attractive for the tenant with a wide range of options. It involved market studies and architectural adaptation of floors that were originally delivered in gray work, to achieve the acceptance of this product by the market.

IOS's vision of flexible spaces is that they inspire and at the same time allow to alternate shifts in teams, guaranteeing productivity, through a varied offer of exclusive spaces, meeting rooms, executive assistance and other multiple services.

Likewise, Regus handles various modalities from personalized offices with all services, to sporadic stays in the various venues they sell, including those of international scope.

Monterrey, Guadalajara and Tijuana were the cities that, after Mexico City, opened this type of work, where local developers were incorporated who adapted and remodeled class B buildings for this service.
