                                  Coworking spaces can be identified as a globally rising trend in a network business
                                  environment where the term of competitiveness is related to knowledge and

                                  sustainable innovation (Castilho & Quandt, 2017).

                                  In this respect, coworking spaces refer to localized places in which professionals

                                  that require autonomy, work with common resources and are free to interact and
                                  share their knowledge with other professionals (Capdevila, 2013).

                                  Gandini (2015) highlights that coworking spaces

                                  mean common workplaces benefitted by various
                                  kinds of professionals, generally self-employed

                                  individuals, working in assorted levels of

                                  specialization in the vast domain of
