8 out of 10 Flex Offices, Globally Occupied by Tech, Services, and Finance Companies

In today’s constantly evolving work environment, where versatility and adaptability are essential, flex offices have emerged as a strategic solution to meet the needs of companies of all sizes.

These versatile spaces do not only offer the freedom to adapt according to the changing needs of the company but also foster collaboration, innovation, and a dynamic work environment that drives business success.

In this context, the Flexmark 4.0 report by Savills and Workthere reveals that, on a global scale, tech, services, and finance companies dominate the flexible office market, occupying approximately 86% of the available spaces.

This phenomenon translates into a clear preference by these industries for the flexible work model, proving their adaptation to new labor trends. Specifically, the report highlights a 12% growth in the use of flex spaces by corporations with more than 100 employees, as well as a significant increase in the demand from financial sector companies, which saw a year-on-year rise of 10%. These data reflect the consolidation of the flexible model as the preferred option for a wide range of companies, from startups to large corporations, seeking flexibility and efficiency in their work environment.

Growth and Preference for Private Spaces

In terms of occupancy, levels are at 83% for private spaces and 70.5% for shared spaces. These figures underscore the stability and growing preference for private spaces within the flexible model.

Although tech companies keep leading the demand for flexible offices at 30%, their impact has decreased by five percentage points from the previous year. Conversely, financial sector companies have seen a notable increase, representing 27% of the users of these spaces, with a year-on-year rise of 10 points.
