Key Highlights

• Huge businesses cancelled flexible office memberships to save on costs. And while some co-working space operators remain open for business, they are mandated to adhere to safety and social distancing measures, which considerably impact the space allocated for occupants within a shared location. COVID-19 had a significant impact on the Co-Working Spaces marketin the country leading the demand for shared office spaces to drop over the course of the lockdowns.
• However, post pandemic, businesses will find ways to avoid big-ticket spending and huge financial commitments. This, in turn, will drive demand for pre-built corporate spaces and lease flexibility.
• Flexible office spaces including co-working are still at a nascent stage in the region. The current flexible office space landscape is largely dominated by domestic players or niche operators. Certain key global brands are yet to enter the market and others have not introduced their full-service offerings. Occupiers on the other hand are contemplating regulatory and other implications of flexible spaces on their local operations.

Increase in Millennial Population

The use of co-working spaces, a shared setting where people doing a variety of vocations can work together and separately inside the same place, is a new way of working that has recently emerged. The spaces are frequently urban and trendy, and they are a far cry from some of the harsher 'cubicle farms' of previous years. They provide freedom, flexibility, and a diverse range of work settings.

Millennials are increasingly entering the workforce, and their presence necessitates a paradigm shift in the workplace. There are 14,000 coworking spaces in operation throughout the world, and by the end of this year, 1.7 million workers, largely millennials, will have taken advantage of the improved working circumstances offered by coworking spaces.
