The same global movement in the shared office industry has experienced rapid growth in Kenya over the past decade, with tech firms occupying most of the spaces in Nairobi.
An influx of multinational business and non-governmental organizations as well as maturing startups has propelled demand for spaces that can accommodate their need for expansion, while still offering the same vibrancy of shared offices.
“Workable offers a solution to the modern organization that seeks to provide employees with personalized and amenity-rich working environments which has been found to improve productivity. Businesses globally are reassessing their real estate needs, generally reducing their office footprints, with many adopting a core + flexi approach. We are the flex portion allowing elasticity depending on the real time office needs of that business,” he added.
Their reasons included the vibrancy of a coworking place that houses employees of different companies from diverse backgrounds and corporate cultures, feeling part of a large community and the flexibility of the working environment that allows them to work from an office desk, a collaborative space or an open public place.
“Workable is Nairobi’s prime shared office space with Grade A flexible studios and many features that are a first in Kenya. The primary target is global enterprises and non-governmental organizations in Nairobi as well as large local firms with significant office needs. Our target user is a well-travelled professional who has been exposed to a variety of experiences, countries and cultures both professionally and personally,” he added.
