ABOUT THE COMPANY

In 1989, visionary entrepreneur and pioneer Mark Dixon set about revolutionising the world of work by launching the Regus Group from his base in Brussels.

Since then, and in response to shifting market dynamics and customer demand, Regus has acquired new brands and grown organically, culminating in creating parent company, International Workplace Groupplc (IWG), in 2016.

Today, IWG is the world’s number one provider of flexible workspace!

We provide solutions to match every kind of business, work style and price point. IWG is visible across the UK through our portfolio of workspace brands, including:

• Regus
• Spaces
• HQ
• Signature
• Basepoint

Although we have more than 3,500 locations in 120 countries, we still see massive potential for growth as we aim to reach every town, city and major transport hub in the world. We aim to provide much needed flexible workspace options ranging from an hour’s co-working to multi-year office space agreements. We connect millions of like-minded professionals and enable them to work more productively.

This is how we at IWG help millions of people have a great day at work, everyday.

WHY CHOOSE IWG?

Today, more than ever, companies and employees are looking for flexible work solutions, especially closer to home. Trends reveal an accelerated and structural shift towards flexible workspace at the expense of conventional leasing. Post Covid-19, these trends will only accelerate further – exemplified by the record enquiry numbers experienced by our teams.

To meet this exponential demand, we’re looking for ambitious franchise partners who want to be part of our journey to expand our brand offering in the UK and worldwide. Since we created the co-working and flexible workspace industry more than 30 years ago, we have continuously fine-tuned our business model to retain our status as the global market leader. As a franchise partner, your business’s economics can benefit by leveraging our scale, customer base, proven business model, and platform.

WHAT DOES IWG DO?

We provide a multi-brand and multi-unit scalable franchise opportunity, which essentially provides our growing customer base with a full range, flexible workspace solution.

We meet the demands of every type and size of business – from start-ups to small and medium-sized companies to large corporate occupiers.
