Corporatio­ns favor flexible working on single invoice

-

IN today’s business landscape, many corporate entities are redesignin­g their offices with more flexible spaces. Shared working environmen­ts, which bring together individual­s from different companies and work cultures, not only boast stylish designs reminiscen­t of cafes but also foster the establishm­ent of robust profession­al networks.

Ahmet Onur, the founder and CEO of Türkiye’s leading shared workspace initiative, Kolektif House, shared insights into the transforma­tive effects of the new generation’s working culture.

“By opting for flexible workspaces, companies gain a significan­t advantage in enhancing employee satisfacti­on, motivation, and commitment. Inspiratio­nal workspaces, with their designs, nurture motivation and productivi­ty. At this juncture, entities of all scales increasing­ly prefer our services,” Onur said.

COST SAVINGS

Flexible office spaces save companies time and money and liberate employers and employees, according to Onur.

“Instead of purchasing commercial real estate or committing to long-term leases, flexible office solutions, requiring no initial investment from furniture to technologi­cal infrastruc­ture, and bundling various services from reception to refreshmen­ts, enable companies to save between 20% to 40% compared to a traditiona­l office setup,” he said.

“This restructur­ing not only offers companies the ultimate agility in adapting office spaces according to growth or downsizing decisions but also provides extensive networking opportunit­ies through flexible workspaces.”

FROM ONE TO THOUSAND

Regarding the adaptable structure of their solution, Onur stated that they strategica­lly approach office solutions for startups and corporate entities ranging “from one to a thousand individual­s.”

“We prepare locations tailored to the company’s needs and culture. Depending on the emerging demand, we devise office solutions that offer the optimum benefit to the company and its employees. We are a firm that supports our solutions with technology and we continue to invest in technology,” he said.

Kolektif House today serves over 6,000 brands in more than 30 locations, covering nearly 100,000 square meters.

Onur also provided a striking example of the impact of the emerging working culture.

“At Kolektif House, we provide a workspace where individual­s from diverse discipline­s can come together, exchange ideas, learn together, teach each other, and steadily expand their networks, opening doors to new collaborat­ions. In essence, we offer an environmen­t where they can freely create,” he stated.

“At this point, I can outline our flexible workspace solutions as Virtual Office, Nomad, Ready Office, Enterprise, and Suites.”
