BENEFITS OF CO-WORKING

■ Greater flexibilty. Most coworking spaces don’t require you to commit to a long-

term contract. Instead, freelancers and startups can take advantage of shorter

leases and flexible pay-as-you-go terms, which can help keep things affordable for
young companies just starting out.

■ A sense of community. Coworking was created to help early web entrepreneurs

escape the drudgery and isolation of working from home, and while they’ve

evolved to fulfill a much wider range of roles, they’re still very much social spaces
at heart. A coworking space connects you with a group of like-minded

professionals.
