Looking for a coworking space?

There’s no reason why starting a business has to be a huge, scary venture any more. Coworking spaces in Singapore are really flexible; there are meeting rooms, admin services and plenty of à la carte options too. It can be a great way of getting cheaper office space, and cutting staff numbers and utility overheads. Work life has changed dramatically over the years and you no longer have to face the major cost of full-time staff with bums on seats and the expense of a huge office space and hardware. Whether you’re a one-man band, a small startup or you have headquarters in other countries but need to do business in Singapore, here are some great options that’ll give you flexibility and the opportunity to meet like-minded people!

ClubCo

This coworking space caters to people who need to host meetings, events and networking lunches as a part of their business. There are three main locations: Capital Square, The Quadrant and Picotin Express East Coast. At these shared offices, workstations can be booked on a monthly basis, starting from $200. Members also have access to office services such as scanners and printers and can book meeting rooms, boardrooms and event spaces for large meetings and presentations, with the exception of Picotin Express East Coast. Day passes (9am to 6pm) are also available at Capital Square and The Quadrant.

What’s new: The company has recently launched a new membership package, MultiCo, where members can choose to work at a selection of F&B outlets across town. Going at $500 a month, the package includes $500 worth of F&B credits that can be used at partner restaurants – meaning the workspace is practically free and you can use the credits to entertain clients! All F&B venues also have high-speed Wi-Fi and power outlets so you can work with ease. Current spots include The Black Swan, and Pizza Express at Marina One and Scotts Square, with more in the pipeline.
