-Founder Oplus Cowork

Coworking spaces services are growing. In Patna, mainly in great urban centres like Delhi Mumbai, Pune Bangalore, shared working spaces are increasing every day. However, contrarily to what was initially the trend, not only freelancers seek places like these as an alternative to home office. Nowadays, the number of entrepreneurs and even corporations adopting coworking is soaring and there are several reasons to justify it.

Ideal for professionals from different sectors, who want great infrastructures at reduced prices with multiple services available like big corporate. Here are 7 advantages of becoming a member of Oplus Cowork – a coworking space.

1. Possibility of “renting” an office at a lower price

A coworking space allows those who work on their own to have an office space that provides comfort and an environment that encourages business. For example, if you’re a freelancer tired of running to the local library or the closest coffee shop, this can be an excellent option. In addition, due to the income instability, it might not be easy to compromise on a rental of a standard office space.

2. Comfortable and fully equipped space

For those who prefer to focus all their attention on the business, setting free from the burden of dealing with logistics, coworking spaces are perfect. Besides services like water, electricity, internet and printers, you won’t have to worry with lengthy services’ contracts, cleaning, maintenance, etc.

In these spaces, you have access to all the necessary services for the development of your business – a comfortable and fully equipped space, often with reception, mail handling and phone services.

3. Double the motivation and productivity

For many, working from home has advantages, like comfort, saving time and the possibility of saving also on the monthly expenses with office space and meals. However, for others, home office is a synonym of a decrease on motivation and constant procrastination.

A lot of people say they can’t focus while working from home. Due to the aloneness and permanence in the same environment, motivation tends to plummet. The consequence of the lack of stimuli is, evidently, a nosedive on productivity.

4. An environment where creativity is contagious

Working on your own often causes creative blocks. Being integrated in an environment where others are creating and developing their own ideas, stimulates creativity considerably. Even if the industries that members of the community work in are different, a workplace with more movement encourages diversity and the exposure to new concepts and work methodologies.

A coworking space allows its members to be in permanent contact, and constant exchange of ideas and experiences, setting up a very dynamic environment.

5. In a coworking space, sharing is imperative

Besides creativity, “open-space” fosters a more dynamic and collaborative culture. The possibility of sharing an office with other brands aligned with your goals and values, facilitates the creation of advantageous synergies which has been attracting a lot of companies to coworking spaces.

6. A network that grows day by day

The opportunity to create networking, due to the community environment that the majority of these spaces share, is another huge advantage. You can meet different people almost on a daily basis and engage on the activities these spaces often organize such as: talks, products’ launch, investors’ meetings and workshops.

This environment is very favourable to increasing your contact list and that is also the reason why entrepreneurs choose coworking spaces.

7. Professional environment

For quite some time, coworking spaces were associated to laid back environments, very focused on young and independent people. However, nowadays, they go way beyond that.

In a coworking space, it is possible to find a very professional environment, despite the casualness. The interiors include distinct areas dedicated to office work, meetings with clients/suppliers and leisure.

Besides, it is important to mention that your possibilities don’t end on shared desks. You can choose a private office to work with your team and take profit from the fully equipped meeting rooms, Conference Hall and other open spaces.

The working industry has seen a radical change post the coronavirus pandemic. Work from home (WFH) has become the new norm in all the major industries. Corporations like TCS and Infosys are planning to change their working model and emphasize more on the WFH model.  A lot of people have been losing their jobs too due to the pandemic which might result in more freelancers and independent professionals. Atmanirbhar Bharat, the vision of Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, will give rise to startups in India and further promote the idea of Made in India.

Be it freelancers or startups, everyone needs an office space and managing a new workspace in the initial phase of starting a business will only lead to unwanted operational costs. Coworking space provides a great solution to everyone and has a great opportunity post the coronavirus pandemic.

Coworking spaces are basically shared office workspaces where you can book cabin spaces, meeting rooms, conference rooms, place for an event and a lot more at reasonable prices. They provide flexibility while booking and you can book these spaces from an hourly basis to a monthly subscription. Coworking spaces provide not only with the office space but also offer various perks and amenities too.

Here are 5 reasons why coworking spaces are the future:

Making connections and networking

Yes, I know, you must’ve seen this everywhere, but this is the top reason why you should look at a coworking space especially if you’re an SMB or a freelancer. According to research from HBR (Harvard Business Review), one of the biggest reasons why SMBs prefer coworking spaces is because of the connections they make there.  Coworking space has people from a wide variety of fields working under the same roof. Working in a coworking space increases your chances of finding a potential client or that agency you’re looking for to uplift your brand.

Coworking spaces ensure better Productivity

Every business thrives on productive employees. Happy and productive employees ensure a booming business. The same study from HBR found that the combination of a well-designed workspace and a well-curated working experience are reasons why people working in coworking spaces thrive more than their traditional office going counterparts. Most coworking spaces are designed in a way to boost your creativity and provide entertainment options to boost your morale and increase productivity.

Coworking spaces cut down your operational costs

If you’re a startup or a business looking to expand in a different city, booking a workspace in a coworking space is a great option for you. Coworking spaces come with various perks all included in the hourly or monthly subscription fees, which would be an overhead cost if you have your own office. Coworking spaces also provide the option of virtual offices. Even freelancers or WFH employees can use it as an office space from time to time if they have to conduct a meeting with their teammates or clients.

Secured Internet connection

Security is one of the major concerns for any business especially if it’s an IT industry. One of the major requirements of the clients is the security of their projects. Coworking spaces provide VPN and dedicated IP addresses to ensure the security of your business. They ensure that your connection over the Internet is secured and save you the trouble of installing all the network security measures when setting up a new office.

Provide a sense of community and break the monotony

The main idea behind any coworking space is to form a community where people can come together and work in harmony. WFH can sometimes get too boring and monotonous. Coworking space provides a great option to have a healthy and creative environment to work in and provide a break from the loneliness of WFH. It’s your choice when and whom you want to interact with and coworking space provide you with a fresh change.
