2. COWORKING SPACES

Coworking spaces are a phenomenon that has become one of the means of
supporting the entrepreneurship ecosystem as this flexible model of work finds

its application mainly in the business of individuals and small start-up

companies (Racek, 2015). The rising popularity of cooperation and information
technologies within the workspaces besides changing global business

circumstances and the requisites of sociability have revealed a

necessity for flexible office locations that encourage mobilization and
collaboration working (Kojo & Nenonen, 2014). In this sense, as creative fields,

coworking spaces are sites of interaction.

By promoting knowledge production,
access to appropriate knowledge

and communal interaction,

they provide innovation
(Braune, 2019).
