How To Find The Right Coworking Space?

While the concept of coworking is new in India; but it is an already established business model in many parts of the world. For many professionals such as Lawyers, Chartered Accountants, Finance professionals and the like, the cost of renting a physical space can take up a huge percentage of their revenue. In such a case, a coworking space is apt for solo practitioners because they foster a sense of community and relieve the feeling of isolation. In today’s scenario, the ecosystem is booming with abundant coworking spaces designed for tech start-ups, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and professionals. Along with a place to work, you get an endless list of other advantages like ambience, amenities, events, networking etc. Out of all the advantages, here are a few important ones you must consider before choosing a coworking space:

1. Location

No matter how lucrative and attractive the pictures look, at the end of the day it’s all about convenience. Selecting a place which is in the central location, easy to commute, easy to find and has ample parking space makes for an ideal setup. Hub and Oak’s Defence Colony center, for instance, is situated in an affluent and prime locality of South Delhi and is at a shortest distance from Supreme Court and High Court.

2. Community

While choosing a coworking space, you need to make sure that the existing community is in sync with your personality and profession. This is essential for professionals who are just starting out their careers, who want to share their resources and brain power. Hub and Oak has built a community of like-minded professionals who are seen referring work, sharing knowledge and grow their practice.
