We recently had the pleasure of attending GCUC UK Manchester, the premier global conference for the coworking community. It was an incredible experience it was!

Our team, represented by Lee Zweig and Matt Pyle, spent the day engaging with a diverse and inspiring mix of professionals from across the coworking ecosystem. From forward-thinking workspace operators and cutting-edge technology providers to designers, strategists, and investors, the event was a vibrant hub of innovation, collaboration, and future-focused thinking.

A day of insight, energy, and human connection

GCUC UK Manchester delivered exactly what the flexible workspace sector thrives on: community and connection. We were blown away by the level of insight and passion in every conversation, with key themes emerging around hybrid work, user-first workspace design, sustainable operations, and the evolving role of workspace technology in enhancing workspace experiences.

We’re walking away with not only new ideas and inspiration, but also valuable partnerships and a renewed sense of purpose in our mission to empower flexible workspaces through seamless digital infrastructure.

A heartfelt thank you to Emilie Lashmar, Stormy McBride, Lizzy Kaplan, and the entire GCUC UK team for putting together such a dynamic coworking event. It was a privilege to be a part of it.

Looking ahead: GCUC London this October

We’re excited to share that we will be a sponsor of GCUC UK London, taking place this October.

If you’re shaping the future of coworking or simply curious about what’s next in flexible workspace solutions, we’d love to see you there.

Why events like GCUC matter

As coworking continues to redefine how, where, and why we work, events like GCUC UK bring together the best minds across commercial real estate, workspace design, operations, and workspace technology. These gatherings are critical in shaping more adaptive, inclusive, and experience-driven workspaces and we’re proud to be part of that movement.
