Office Space or Co-working space is a place that provides a specified space for individual workers to work independently or collaboratively in the shared space. Anyone can use a shared office space, be it a freelancer, a writer, an entrepreneur, a researcher or anyone who seeks for peace to concentrate on their work or studies.
It suits best for entrepreneurs, who, with less budget try to set their startups. The office space provides the users with office equipment, space, internet, and a peaceful environment to work in, at an affordable price. It also suits for your business meetings and interviews. For those who don’t have an office, they have a shared space for them. Now, you can easily do your meetings and interviews without booking a conference hall or a lavish restaurant. And, also a business meeting at your house? Doesn’t quite sound like a professional meeting, right?
Why Co-working Space?
Working from home or taking a flat or room in rent may not be possible for everyone. The office equipment like printer, projector, fax machines, copiers, furnitures; they cost a huge chunk of your wallet. Nevertheless, office space does the work for you. With a very less amount of rent you can work on your ideas in a professional, peaceful and positive environment. This helps in designing a better foundation for your project. You can also find like-minded people at office spaces. Who knows? You might also find a business partner or a skilled professional for your project.
The concept of co-working space is not new. There are many well established shared spaces in many countries like The Crew Collective Café in Canada, The Work Project in Hong Kong, The Farm Soho in the New York City, The Hive in India and many more. The trend has now reached our homeland, Nepal. There are not many of them but the ratio is good till date and definitely, in near future we will have more shared spaces in Nepal.
