Coworking Spaces Around the World: 18 Best Picks (2026)
- 1. Around the world
- 2. Southeast Asia
- 3. Philippines
Your company has outgrown one country. You have a team of five, a map of the world and nothing booked. The question is not which city. It is what kind of help you need first.
Every one of the coworking spaces around the world is a bet on one answer to that question: reach, design, local community, startup support or flexible booking. This guide follows your team through five problems and shows how 18 operators answer each one. One warning: the problem you plan for on day one is not the one that finds you a few months in. Parts 2 and 3 follow that team to Southeast Asia and then to the Philippines.
The team is hypothetical. The operators and their facts are real, and each comes from the operator's own site or dated reporting.

Why coworking spaces around the world keep spreading
Remote work proved that knowledge work does not need one corporate address. Three things keep coworking spaces around the world growing.
Talent is spread out
You hire the best person wherever they live, then need a professional base for them, such as offices in Cebu IT Park.
Cost stays flexible
A monthly membership is easier to approve than a fit-out and a five-year lease.
Community has value
Chance conversations between members are something a home office cannot offer.
Can one contract cover every country?
Your team of five will not stay in one place. Your plan says three countries by the end of the year, and your finance lead wants one contract and one invoice. Among coworking spaces around the world, these operators answer with reach.
- IWG / RegusGlobal (IWG plc)
ProblemYou hire in several countries and want one account for all of them.
SolutionIWG plc is the parent of Regus and Spaces and is among the largest flexible-workspace operators by number of locations.
Watch for: Spaces is an IWG brand, so it is not listed separately.
- WeWorkUnited States (HQ)
ProblemYour board wants a name it already knows.
SolutionWidely known coworking brand serving enterprise and scale-up tenants on flexible terms.
Watch for: It went through a widely reported restructuring. Check the status of your specific location.
- JustCoSingapore
ProblemYour team is in Singapore and across Asia-Pacific, and wants design as well as reach.
SolutionSingapore-founded, design-forward centers across Asia-Pacific.
Watch for: Check the city page for your market, because the center list changes.
Reach settles the logistics. It does not settle how the place looks.
Do we want a design-led address?
Clients visit, and candidates judge the room. A premium building and a calm interior carry weight when the team is new in town. Some of the best coworking spaces in the world answer with design.
- mindspaceTel Aviv, Israel (HQ)
ProblemYour founder wants a design-led address in Berlin, Hamburg or Munich.
SolutionDesign-led hubs in German cities such as Berlin, Hamburg and Munich.
Watch for: Premium positioning usually means premium pricing. Ask for a written quote.
- IndustriousUnited States
ProblemYour satellite team wants a hotel-lobby feel in a US office tower.
SolutionHospitality-style operator that partners with major landlords.
Watch for: Landlord partnerships mean locations sit mostly in large commercial buildings.
- Second HomeUnited Kingdom
ProblemYour creative team picks places by atmosphere.
SolutionCharacterful workspaces known in London and Lisbon.

- UtopicusSpain
ProblemYour Madrid or Barcelona team wants a heritage building with modern amenities.
SolutionFlexible workspace in Madrid and Barcelona, owned by the real-estate group Colonial SFL.
Watch for: Landlord ownership can mean strong buildings and fewer small-team options.
A beautiful address is not the same as a neighborhood. Some teams need to belong to one.
Do we need a local community in one city?
A new hire in a new city does not need a global brand. They need people nearby who know the best lunch spot and the best accountant. These coworking spaces around the world lead with local community.
- MorningFrance
ProblemYour French team wants a local, neighborhood feel.
SolutionNeighborhood coworking spaces across France, with an emphasis on local community.
Watch for: The English site is at morning.fr/en.
- FastFiveSouth Korea
ProblemYour Seoul hire wants the best-known local brand.
SolutionAmenity-rich spaces across Seoul.

- Victory OfficesAustralia
ProblemYou want a polished Australian address, and you are willing to check its history first.
SolutionServiced offices and virtual office addresses in major Australian cities.
Watch for: It entered administration in November 2022. Confirm which locations still run.
Community is local, and sometimes it is more than social. Some teams need help building the company itself.
Do we need startup support, not just desks?
A few weeks in, your founder says the thing founders say: the desk is fine, but where are the investors, the mentors and the programs? These operators attach support to the space.
- FabbitJapan
ProblemYour startup wants a foothold in Fukuoka.

Watch for: A natural peer to look at beside any Fukuoka plan.
- AstrolabsUnited Arab Emirates
ProblemYour startup is entering the UAE and wants programs beside the desk.

ProblemYour social enterprise works in West Africa.
SolutionCo-Creation Hub in Lagos supports startups and social enterprises.
Watch for: Built around innovation programs more than flexible desks.
- Impact HubGlobal network
ProblemYour mission is social impact, wherever you are.
SolutionNetwork of locally run hubs centered on entrepreneurs and social impact.
Watch for: Each hub sets its own programming and pricing, so the experience changes by city.
The team now has contacts. One problem is left, and it concerns how you rent.
Do we need company-ready space or flexible booking?
Last, the unglamorous problem. Your company wants managed offices it can rely on, or a way to book space across a country without signing six contracts. Two answers appear here.
- AwfisIndia
ProblemYour company needs managed offices in India.
SolutionManaged offices for enterprises alongside individual memberships in major Indian cities.
Watch for: Strongest where the buyer is a company, not a freelancer.
- WobaBrazil
ProblemYour team needs to book space across Brazil from one place.
SolutionConnects businesses and workers to coworking spaces across Brazil.
Watch for: You book space run by other operators, so terms differ by venue.
Five problems, eighteen answers.
Wherever you start, the story turns on the same step: pick a region and land there. Ours points to Southeast Asia, so Part 2 follows the team to Singapore.
Our network: Zero-Ten Park across Japan, the Philippines, Singapore and Hawaii
Disclosure: Zero-Ten Park publishes this guide. It sits here, outside the operator list, and is not ranked against it.
The problem: your team works between Japan and the Philippines, or plans to hire there, and wants workspace and a legal employer from one provider. The solution: among coworking spaces around the world, Zero-Ten Park is a coworking and managed-office network based in Fukuoka, Japan. Its operating company, Zero-Ten Park Co., Ltd., was established there in July 2018. Its Japan corporate site describes the team as a business production team that supports the growth of talented people and companies through workspaces.

How the network makes a difference
It links Japan and the Philippines. We began in Fukuoka and chose the Philippines as the place to grow, drawn by a culture built on community, creativity and resilience. Our Japan corporate site cites hiring Philippine talent through Employer of Record as one of its cases.
It pairs space with people services. Our Japan corporate site lists startup support and flexible-office management alongside the desks. In the Philippines we add Employer of Record (EOR) services, in which Zero-Ten Park is the legal employer of the staff who work for a client.
It is local on the ground. Each space has an on-site team and a member community. On its Japan site, Zero-Ten Park says members can use its other coworking locations at no extra charge. Check the terms of your plan.
Philippine branches
Mandaue offers event hosting support on request. Zero-Ten Park Philippines is owned by Zero-Ten Park Co., Ltd. of Fukuoka, Japan. It suits a foreign company that wants to employ people in the Philippines without setting up a local entity first, and seat them with the same provider. Read the Philippines coworking page or the Employer of Record page for details.

Frequently asked questions
What are the best coworking spaces in the world for remote teams?
Among coworking spaces around the world there is no single best. For distributed teams, shortlist operators with locations in every city you need, such as IWG / Regus or WeWork for reach, Industrious in the United States and JustCo across Asia-Pacific. Then check meeting-room access, contract length and cancellation terms at the specific location, because they vary by site.
What is the largest coworking company in the world?
IWG plc, the parent of Regus and Spaces, is among the largest flexible-workspace operators by number of locations. Rankings change with the measure used (locations, members or revenue) and the year, so check IWG's latest annual report before you quote a figure.
How does Zero-Ten Park compare with global brands like WeWork or IWG?
WeWork and IWG lead on geographic reach. Zero-Ten Park is smaller: a network based in Fukuoka with locations in Japan, the Philippines, Singapore and Hawaii. It pairs coworking and managed offices with people services, including Employer of Record in the Philippines, so a foreign company can employ and seat a team through one provider. Choose reach if you need many countries. Choose Zero-Ten Park if you work between Japan and the Philippines.
What is Zero-Ten Park's mission?
Zero-Ten Park says it began in Japan with a mission to make work more human. Its Philippine site describes the approach as Japanese precision with Filipino warmth. Its Japan corporate site describes the company as a business production team that supports the growth of talented people and companies through workspaces.
Where does Zero-Ten Park operate?
Zero-Ten Park is based in Fukuoka, Japan. Its sites list locations in Japan, the Philippines (Cebu IT Park, Mandaue and Makati), Singapore and Hawaii.
Which countries have the most coworking spaces around the world?
Large economies such as the United States, the United Kingdom, India and China tend to have the highest counts. Counts change every year and depend on how a report defines a coworking space, so check a current market report from a source such as JLL or CBRE before you quote a number.
Is coworking suitable for enterprise companies, or only freelancers and startups?
Enterprises use it too, mainly for satellite offices, project teams and entering a new market without a long lease. Operators such as IWG / Regus, WeWork and Industrious sell enterprise accounts with central billing.
What should I look for when choosing an international coworking space?
Start with location and transport, then check membership flexibility from day pass to annual, internet reliability, meeting-room availability and community fit. Ask about support for company registration or employment if you are entering a new country.
What is an Employer of Record, and why does it matter for coworking?
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a company that legally employs workers on behalf of another business and handles payroll, statutory contributions and local labor-law compliance. In the Philippines, Zero-Ten Park offers EOR services alongside workspace, so an international company can employ people without first setting up a local entity. Confirm the details of your case with qualified Philippine counsel.
How much do coworking spaces around the world typically cost?
Prices vary by city, operator and membership type, and operators change them often. Ask each shortlisted operator for a written quote that states what is included and whether taxes are extra. For Zero-Ten Park rates, contact the team through the branch pages.
