Manila, Philippines—Based in Amsterdam, Spaces, workstations shared with others, has chosen the World Plaza in Bonifacio Global City as its first site in the Philippines; it offers professionals a 500-square meter office hub—about 477 workstations—built around the concept of community and shared ideas.

Further, Spaces integrates lifestyle into work; its community members are encouraged to build their own networks and connect.

Its workplace includes a café, a fresh deli counter, and several private meeting rooms.

Founded in 2006, Spaces has hubs across cities in different countries such as the Netherlands, United States, Singapore, and Australia, and now, the Philippines. Spaces’ concept has been attracting entrepreneurs, SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises), as well as high-profile corporations.

“Spaces is redefining the way work is done, providing a contemporary, social, and inspirational environment with a real focus on community,” said Spaces Philippines Country Manager Lars Wittig.

“Manila is a city on the rise and a great fit for Spaces. We’re very excited to add this beautiful and buzzing city to our international spread and connect our community with Manila,” Spaces Co-Founder Martijn Roordink added.
