Global Flexible Workspace Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Ownership (Private and Shared), by Type (Collaborative Workspace, Manufacturing Space, and Others), and by End User (Small Business, Medium Business, and Large Business) Forecast Period (2023-2030)

The global flexible workspace market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 14.0% during the forecast period. The market growth is driven by various factors, including the increasing adoption of remote work culture, rising demand for flexible and cost-effective office solutions, and the growing trend of coworking spaces. Also, the growth of the market is driven by an increasing number of small companies and startups seeking temporary office solutions coupled with increasing favorable policies of the government giving a push to new startups. For instance, in March 2021, a majority of EU governments signed up for an initiative to create a better legal framework for start-up formation and growth. The EU Startup Nations Standard was devised by the Portuguese government during its EU presidency in early 2021, and launched by the European Commission in March 2021. It sets out eight areas of policy to support the creation and growth of innovative start-ups. These include fast start-up creation and smooth market entry; attracting and retaining talent; stock options; innovation in regulation, including regulatory sandboxes; innovation procurement, including tech transfer policies, access to finance; social inclusion, diversity, and protecting democratic values; ‘digital first’ for interactions between start-ups and the authorities.
