“That … has put the need for companies to look at flexibility in managing and thinking about their workspace,” said Samit Chopra, WeWork’s international president and COO. “That has therefore resulted in many companies, large and small, enterprise clients, freelancers, start-ups … to look at the flexible space sector and companies such as WeWork much more favorably than we saw in the last, say, three years ago. What that has done … is it has skyrocketed the demand for flexible workspace for us across the world.”
