四大共享辦公室 今年爭相插旗台灣|Shared office space companies to expand business in Taiwan this year

National

The business services provided by coworking spaces have rapidly grown in recent years around the world. In Taiwan, however, there were only 24 coworking spaces by 2018. Compared to other Asian countries, Taiwan has had the least number of coworking spaces. There is, therefore, little wonder that four of the largest working spaces companies have launched their businesses this year, including The Hive Taipei, WeWork, WorkTech, and JustCo. As one of the fastest-growing companies in the Asia coworking spaces market, JustCo will open up three shared offices in Taiwan soon.
