AXA Investment Managers \u2013 Real Assets is developing and will manage the 22 Bishopsgate development. Convene WorkPlace will occupy 51,000 square feet across two floors at the property, offering about 600 desks in fully-furnished, flexible work suites with a variety of amenities included.<\/p>\n

The other 51,000 square feet of space will be used for Convene\u2019s meeting and event spaces, which will also span two floors, with a 30 to 300 person capacity for conferences and a range of events. The spaces will offer built-in technology and dedicated production, IT and hospitality teams, including a full-service culinary team. Convene was represented by CBRE in the lease negotiations, while AXA IM \u2013 Real Assets was represented by JLL.<\/p>\n

GETTING IN THE GAME<\/h2>\n

As the coworking sector has blossomed over the last two years, various players in the office space have decided to join the crowd. In June of this year, Savills announced the launch of PIVOT<\/a>, a coworking platform that will be rolled out exclusively in the U.K., followed two weeks later by developer Hines announcing its launch<\/a> of a coworking venture dubbed Hines Squared.<\/p>\n

Europe\u2019s coworking sector has continued to grow, with top demand for coworking space centered in London<\/a>, according to a Cushman & Wakefield report from earlier this year. In England\u2019s capital alone, there is more than 10.7 million square feet of coworking space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
