Find a Hot Desk or a Coworking Space Anywhere in Singapore

A coworking space is a shared workspace where individuals and organisations come together as a community. Coworking spaces can take the form of a desk and a chair or an enclosed private office within a larger office floor; they also come with a series of services such as a business landline, postal address, and reception. Other common amenities included with coworking spaces are unlimited access to Wifi, free flowing coffee and tea, and printing services.

More than infrastructures, coworking spaces are the future of workspaces. They double as hubs which foster synergistic collaboration between seemingly unrelated individuals to encourage partnership and communal and individual growth.

The popularity of coworking spaces today is due to the changing work culture brought about by advances in technology and evolution of lifestyle. It’s never been more acceptable for people to explore alternatives to traditional corporate jobs, and freelancing and entrepreneurship have become more popular and accessible. With startups launching left and right, coworking spaces offer the perfect solution to people’s need for a professional yet flexible environment where one can thrive individually and collaboratively.

Work is no longer fixed to particular locations; individual professionals and entrepreneurs travel all the time and could set up an office in one city only to end up in another in a few weeks’ time. Organisation sizes also change a lot; one day you’re a 3-man team and next thing you know, you’re an organisation of 20. Coworking spaces offer the perfect solution to house your business for however long you want and regardless of whatever changes your organisation experiences. With varying membership packages and rental terms, coworking spaces allow plenty of customization to accommodate your ever-changing needs. You can expand your space whenever you want to fit your organisation size and you can pay rent daily or acquire a contract for as short as 3 months. No other office space offers you this ease and flexibility but coworking spaces. 

With flexibility comes affordability. Unlike traditional office spaces which require a hefty amount of investment for you to move in, coworking spaces have flexible contract terms which often don’t require down payment and deposits. And because coworking spaces allows you to share space with other people, you get to cut costs in a big way. For a fraction of the price, coworking spaces let you work in a prime business location in a capital city of a first world country.

Freelancing and entrepreneurship let you build something of your own, but no one ever did everything by themselves. Successful people know that achievement is built on collaborative effort and if they want to succeed, they need to network and meet fellow professionals who can help them bring their ideas to fruition. Coworking spaces offer a collaborative environment where everyone can freely communicate and innovate. Through networking events, workshops, and so on, coworking spaces offer a solution for individual professionals, small teams, and even huge corporations to meet and learn from each other.

There are over 200 flexible office space providers in Singapore as of 2019. With so much competition and variation in location and range of services, the prices of coworking spaces also vary a lot.
