In an increasingly ‘gig’ economy, where freelancers, part-timers and remote workers make up a significant chunk of the workforce, co-working spaces are popping up in more and more locations across the globe. It is thought that the co-working workforce is set to skyrocket to 50% by 2020, with more co-working spaces appearing every month.
Liberty Games have analysed the number of WeWork offices around the world, along with the average price to rent a hot-desk and a private office, to reveal which cities are the best for co-working. You can view the interactive index here.
