Event Details
JLL released a new whitepaper entitled <Coworking – Fad or Fixture?> today to examine the causes behind the recent proliferation of coworking in China, and considers how office occupiers can integrate coworking into their real estate strategies.
The concept of coworking emphasizes creating a space that supports collaboration, openness, knowledge sharing, innovation, and user experience. While these spaces were nearly nonexistent in China as recently as early 2015, they have grown exponentially in the nation’s Tier 1 and Tier 1.5 cities. Take Beijing and Shanghai as example, more than 500 coworking sites have been set up in these two key cities over past 18 months. Today, China is home to some of the best-known firms in the coworking industry such as US-based We Work – which officially entered China in 2016, and has already secured three locations in Shanghai – and the coworking brand 3Q launched by SOHO China in 2015.
We cordially invite you to the launch event of this whitepaper which explores the state of play for coworking in China, and assesses how corporate occupiers can integrate coworking into their real estate strategies. The paper highlights the following aspects:
• Key driving factors for China’s coworking boom
• Advantages of coworking for corporate occupiers
• Benefits and risks of five co-working models
