From segregated corporate settings and cubicle farms to cool brainstorming rooms, trendy desks, and young people working in shorts and flip flops, newbie entrepreneurs are beginning to prefer the culture of co-working where like-minded souls connect and exchange ideas.
Co-working is a more evolved concept in the West but it has recently started gaining popularity in India with the birth of a new startup every day. Working from home can lead to isolation and working from a coffee shop can be distracting; hence, co-working spaces have become a popular choice.
Not only do co-working hubs reduce the initial cost of renting a commercial space, they also offer great networking opportunities. They help in getting the correct advice for your startup from the active community and also provide solutions to similar problems. Startups can get customers from the network and also hire the right talent from a pool of skilled individuals.
Co-working spaces offer memberships ranging from a daily drop-in pass to a monthly or yearly membership according to the needs and size of the team. Some of the basic amenities include free Internet access, basic pantry services and power-backup. However, many of these spaces allow access to weekly seminars, mentor network, investor workshops and other networking events. Some co-working spaces also provide admin, HR, accounting and legal support.
In our view, a good co-working space is one that has individuals with great ideas, offers networking opportunities by organising workshops, seminars and mentoring sessions with industry leaders, reduce the amount of office overheads, provides hygienic working conditions, and is pocket-friendly and easy to access at the same time.
We want you to discover the best co-working space for your startup and hence have complied a comprehensive list of such hubs across New Delhi and NCR, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pune, Chennai, and Ahmedabad.
Happy co-working!
