    #69 Hospitality Industry as a Model: What can coworking professionals learn? (CWE24)

    Recording of the panel held in Sofia on November 2024, at the Coworking Europe 2024 conference, entitled "What hospitality industries can teach coworking and how can coworking become part of the family?" Coworking is about people and care, not just about the facility. Hotels and restaurants have centuries of experience in hosting, and coworking operators are increasingly seeking staff with hospitality experience. Why is this, and what can coworking learn from the hospitality industry? What does hospitality truly mean, and how can it be applied to the workspace environment? What does a smile represent? How can we cultivate behaviors focused on personal service and care? How do we anticipate the needs of our clients? When recruiting, how can we identify the right skills? What level of service is appropriate to match the promised value for money? This panel, composed of experienced professionals who have worked in both hospitality and coworking, will help us explore the similarities and key insights that can transform flexible workspaces into places of genuine experience and personal satisfaction. Panelists : Patrick Aström (Helio Coworking), Kristelina Staykova (Entract127), Maria Piovano (The Social Hub), Elena Monserrate (Uncommon)

    #68 (AI Gen) Dynamic Brokers and Rising Employee Demand Propel Coworking Space Expansion in France

    Coworking spaces in France are proliferating rapidly, particularly in regions with dynamic real estate markets characterized by high transaction volumes and a robust infrastructure of real estate services. This trend is extensively analyzed in the "8ème édition du Baromètre Arthur Loyd," which reveals that areas like Gironde, Rhône, and Bouches-du-Rhône are hotspots for coworking growth due to their mature tertiary real estate markets. These regions benefit from the presence of a diverse professional community and high levels of commercial real estate activities, which provide the necessary environment for coworking spaces to thrive. The demand for these flexible workspaces is increasingly driven by companies and employees seeking adaptable work arrangements, highlighting a shift towards more dynamic work environments that cater to both individual and corporate needs. In metropolitan areas where demand for office space is high, coworking spaces offer a practical solution by providing flexible leasing terms and a community environment that appeals to modern workers and companies.

    #67 (AI Gen) Bavaria’s Shift - The Impact of Hybrid Work on Mobility and (Flex) Office Use

    This AI generated podcast summarize the Study “Längerfristige Auswirkungen von New Work auf die Mobilität der Menschen in Bayern”, published via the Bavarian Business Association at vbw-bayern.de and in PDF format. The findings suggest a cautious approach among Bavarian businesses when it comes to integrating coworking into formal hybrid work policies. This hesitancy contrasts with trends in other European markets, where coworking is increasingly being recognized as a bridge between office and remote work — especially in secondary cities or for decentralized teams. It also emphasize on the fact that despite the rise of hybrid work, coworking remains a fringe option among Bavarian companies, with only 3% offering access to coworking spaces as part of their flexible work policies.
