Check out these soon-to-open co-working spaces in Singapore

Companies are rushing to have them operational by 2018.

Co-working spaces and serviced offices are growing in market share as they continue to expand and invest in properties in Singapore according to Collier's Quarterly.

Frasers Tower, which will be completed in 2018, found its first tenant-serviced office The Executive Centre for 20,000 sqft(1,860 sq m).

Distrii, an operator of co-working spaces in China, will lease more than 60,000 sq ft (5,757 sq m) of space at CDL-owned Republic Plaza Tower 1 in Singapore's prime Raffles Place. Expected to be one of the largest co-working spaces in Singapore, it will integrate food and beverage, entertainment, recreational and office facilities. It is expected to open in the first half of 2018 after the space is vacated.

Other operators are also growing. The Working Capitol Group has leased 11 floors in 140 Robinson Road (Crown @ Robinson) amounting to 55,000 sq ft (5,110 sq m), and JustCo has leased 40,000 sq ft (3,715 sq m) over two floors in UIC Building as well as 34,000 sq ft(3, 160 sq m) in Marina One.

“The demand from these operators continues with many regional and global operators eyeing Singapore's embracing environment for this occupier sector. Sustainability, evolution and saturation point of this niche will be carefully watched” Colliers reports.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
