5 coworking benefits

1. Flexibility means your startup has room to grow 📈

Coworking services provide workspaces which vary in size, from flexible individual desks for the freelancer and digital nomad types, to entire floors for fast-growing scale-ups. At 42workspace, you start from the ground floor and as you go up, you have increasingly larger offices. At the very top, you can have your own floor! This allows startups to have the freedom to grow in size as their business ramps up. You can literally start from the bottom and build your way to the top!

2. Networking every day 🤝

At 42workspace, we call this “cross-contamination”. Coworking spaces are designed to foster a community. You get so many opportunities to interact with others, so much so that networking and socializing become one and the same. Make friends who will also help you out in your startup journey! At 42workspace, for example, we focus on connecting tech and digital professionals in Rotterdam. Choosing a coworking space with a niche will increase the chances that you’ll find people who are much like you!

3. Find self-starters and international talent easily 💪

Coworking spaces are hubs for international entrepreneurs. While some prefer the solo “nomad” life, many would be happy to work with startups and scale-ups within the same space. Freelancers and entrepreneurs are known for their ability to work autonomously, so you can find a lot of “self-starter” international talent very easily.

4. Quickly learn new skills and ideas ⚡️

Being a member of a coworking space means that you will be surrounded by like-minded people, as well as several opportunities to join in on interesting workshops, meetups and large events. Learning should never stop, even if you consider yourself a specialist in your area, and coworking spaces allow you to learn about the latest developments from your industry every other week.

5. Access to mentors and advisors 🧠

Coworking spaces are populated by fresh, young professionals as well as titans with several decades of experience. In combination with the openness of the space, this allows an exchange of knowledge that can help both sides. Younger professionals can learn from years of experience, and older generations can learn from new perspectives.
