For thousands of professionals across Australia, coworking has become ubiquitous with a new and innovative way of doing business. What started out as a blip on the corporate radar has quickly evolved as a critical component for business operations nationwide.  

Gone are the days when Friday night work drinks or the company PlayStation were drawcards for what employees wanted from being in the
office. Flexibility in remote and workplace arrangements is now one of the highest priorities businesses need to consider in attracting and retaining talent.

Before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, many people looked to the traditional office as the workplace standard: Commuting to and from a central office location to work in a designated cubicle or desk for eight hours a day. Although coworking spaces were already established at the time, their popularity has grown exponentially in the last two years.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about a lot of drastic changes, particularly in the workplace. The past year of lockdowns and safety restrictions have shifted the way people view work, leading them to discover that there are many ways to be highly productive other than just hunkering down in a cubicle all day.
