News of the 31/05/2018
Born in the early 2000s in the United States, the coworking concept has developed strongly in Europe since 2010. Today, there are more than 600 such spaces throughout France ; the market has even grown by 80% between 2016 and 2017 and half of the one million daily coworkers are located in the Paris region. In just a few years, this new form of collaborative office rental has given rise to hybrid premises capable of shaking up professional habits and practices. BURO Club explains everything about the coworking trend !
The principle
Originally, coworking was created so that self-employed workers could work outside the home. The spaces have therefore been designed in a practical and functional manner. Also, sharing office space made it possible on average to save between 30% and 50% compared to a traditional rental. Over time, these places have become trendy and their offers have diversified. The coworkers' profile has also broadened to bring together freelancers, startupers and even employees from large groups. All the world' countries have now integrated this principle and Paris is even among the most coworking cities with New York, Barcelona and London.

Sharing and kindness are coworking's watchwords.
