Co-Working Space As Source Of Networking And Social Interaction

Abstract

Co-working spaces are shared office environments for independent professionals. Such spaces have been
increasing rapidly throughout the world, and provide, in addition to basic business infrastructure, the
opportunity for social interaction. In the last couple of years, increasing numbers of independent
professionals have opted to work in co-working spaces. This emerging office type appears to provide a
resourceful environment for this particular target group because it provides opportunities for social
support in addition to flexible business infrastructure. To date, only a few scientific investigations of coworking spaces have been conducted. The purpose of the study is to understand the concept of the coworking space and analyse the reason why people prefer and use co working space. The findings highlight
the importance of coworkers as a source of social interaction and Networking
