Flex office space on the rise

In November 2021, Mindspace announced it had secured $72 million in funding and has since opened offices in Germany. The company has doubled its portfolio size over the course of 2022. Other flex office spaces have grown too. WeWork noted a 24 percent membership increase in 2021.

Flex office space is growing in popularity across many major metropolitan areas. According to a CBRE report, in 49 markets across North America nearly one-third saw their square footage expand in a year period ending last September. Despite the height of the pandemic being over, other factors, such as hybrid work models, support the flex office industry.
