It sounds like the opposite of what most companies are doing these days, with full-time office work <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peopleworks.in\/blog\/2018\/01\/10\/the-rise-of-coworking-spaces\/\">falling out of favour<\/a>, but our new setup is a little different.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>We\u2019re excited to be one of the first companies to move into the Runway East Bristol, a space that offers permanent, dedicated, and co-working places for tech and creative companies. The move means we will still have the benefits of a co-working location, but with the added benefits of a place we can called home \u2013 plus, we\u2019ve got our own private door to the roof terrace!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>But we don\u2019t want to just brag about our fancy new location. In the past few years, co-working spaces have begun to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketingweek.com\/2018\/08\/29\/co-working-brands-transforming-way-businesses-work\/\">transform the ways businesses work<\/a>, and we reckon it\u2019s time that everyone got the memo.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>Office environments can be hostile<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>We\u2019ve all worked somewhere that we felt was less than perfect. From windowless rooms to oppressive cubicles, most of us understand the dwindling creativity caused by unpleasant work environments.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>Saving money<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>The 2008 recession saw a spike in remote working and hot-desking as many companies slashed office budgets. Now, it\u2019s the norm, and it could even end up making you money\u2026 you never know if today\u2019s desk neighbour could become tomorrow\u2019s business lead.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>Move with the times<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>People complain about millennials, but the fact is, they\u2019re now settled into the global workforce for the foreseeable future, and if a company wants to attract hot new talent it needs to appeal to younger generations. It sounds fickle, but an attractive workspace matters to the leaders of tomorrow, and if your company seems like its trailing behind, you may not be able to hire the recruits you\u2019re looking for.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>Meeting new people<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>For OggaDoon, there is one thing that always contributes our decisions, and that\u2019s networking. Where can we meet exciting new people? Our new space is rife with some of Bristol and the South West\u2019s most exciting tech talent, and that\u2019s something companies should bear in mind when choosing a space. Is it just you and your team stuck within the same four walls, or do you have the opportunity to get out there and meet potential new clients and friends?<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Want to see our new space? Come in for a coffee and a chat about your PR needs, and we\u2019ll show you around. <a href=\"https:\/\/website.clientdemoweb.com\/oggadoon\/contact\">Get in touch today.<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week OggaDoon made the switch from remote working and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8763,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[104,105],"class_list":["post-8762","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","tag-co-working","tag-office-space"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.14 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The Office Space Debate (and Why We Think Co-Working Wins)<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"What&#039;s better, an office or a co-working space?
