What is a Coworking Space?

A coworking space is a shared work environment where individuals — freelancers, remote workers, entrepreneurs, and small teams — work independently or collaboratively in a professional setting. Unlike traditional offices, coworking spaces offer flexibility, community, and shared resources without the long-term commitment.

✅ Flexible plans (daily, weekly, monthly)

✅ Productive, quiet environment

✅ Professional business address

✅ Supportive community

✅ Events, coffee & collaboration
