New Regus Membership Scheme Gives Access To World’s Largest Network Of Workspaces

Regus, the global workspace provider, has announced a new membership scheme to bring the benefits of flexible working to even more people around the world.

Responding to the different working needs of businesses and individuals around the world, Regus’ new membership scheme offers three options: Lounge, Co-working and Office space. Whether it’s access to a lounge to check on emails or an individual office for a private meeting, Regus members have the flexibility to choose the option that suits their needs.

The new membership scheme makes it easier for anybody to enjoy the benefits of flexible working. All members also enjoy unrivalled access to around 3,500 locations in over 1,100 towns and cities in 120 countries around the world, all for a starting price of just 469 AED per month.

Recent studies have revealed the growing use of flexible workspaces, such as on-demand rentable offices and co-working spaces, by people and businesses. Regus parent group IWG recently released a survey of 18,000 business leaders revealing that more than 60% of UAE employees work remotely every week, and over 50% do so for at least half of the week.

Regus itself also recently released the findings of its own survey of working parents, which revealed that 85% of those surveyed would forfeit other benefits to take up flexible working, with 81% believing the top benefit of doing so is a better work-life balance.

Regus pioneered the use of flexible workspaces in 1989 in Belgium and has since grown around the world. It has now launched a new membership scheme to allow workers wherever they live around the world to take advantage of its unparalleled network of offices, meeting rooms and co-working spaces. The company has over 1,000 locations in the US; over 350 in the UK; more than 100 per country in Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Japan and The Netherlands; and many more in other countries. This year the company expects to open its first centers in countries as diverse as the Dominican Republic, Guyana, Jamaica and Tajikistan.

Christos Misailidis, CEO – Asia Pacific and Middle East at IWG plc. says:

“Both regionally and globally a workplace revolution is shaking up how and where we work, with over half of the UAE workforce working remotely every week. As businesses shift towards an increasingly mobile and globalised workforce, our new membership scheme provides flexible access to a truly global network, in a working environment that suits them.”

All the new membership packages provide access to these and to the company’s other locations in over 120 countries worldwide for a simple monthly fee.

Every location is equipped with secure, high-speed WiFi; onsite admin and reception support; kitchen areas; and a range of professional and productive workspaces, private offices and meeting rooms.

Furthermore, as part of the IWG family of companies, Regus members can also gain preferential access to other IWG company locations, such as Spaces, No18 and Signature by Regus.

Ian Hallett, Group Managing Director for Brands and Ventures at Regus, says:

“We have reached a tipping point. People and businesses globally are using flexible workspace more than ever to achieve their personal and professional goals. With our new membership scheme, we are pleased to help anyone benefit from flexible working by giving low-cost access to the world’s largest network of office and co-working spaces. From Aalborg in Denmark to Zhuhai in China, and thousands of locations in-between.”
