The 12 Best Coworking Spaces For Large Teams In Makati
Looking to extend business operations to Makati CBD? The Philippines’ premier business and finance district is home to a range of coworking hubs with spaces for up to 300 people – here’s our guide to the best flexible workspaces in Makati CBD for corporate and enterprise teams.
Setting up a remote branch in the Philippines comes with many considerations. From choosing the best location for your industry to figuring out the costs of office leasing in Metro Manila, it should all factor into your choice of office space in this sprawling metropolis.
Flexible workspaces offer the fastest and smoothest route to a company setup in Makati CBD. First of all, you are not tied down to a long-term contract, providing you the ultimate flexibility in terms of renting the space you need, giving you the opportunity to scale as you grow or relocating on short notice. On the other hand, if you decide to go for a commercial office lease, you would conventionally have to commit for three, five or even 10 years, leaving you no wiggle room in case your business grows faster than anticipated.
Opening its doors in 2014, Penbrothers is a workspace provider that quickly realised the demand for flexi office space in the Filippino market, having successfully expanded to eight offices in three different locations. Taking the idea of a serviced office to even greater heights, their goal is to make it easier for companies to focus on their core business by taking care of talent sourcing, hiring, payroll and, of course, office space.
They occupy five floors in the OPL building in Legazpi Village, the quirky neighbourhood right next to Makati’s Central Business District and only a short walk to Ayala Avenue. On the other side of Ayala Avenue you will find another PenBrothers centre on V. A. Rufino corner Valero and San Agustin Street within the Chatham House – another exclusive location only a few blocks from Ayala Avenue and offering views over Makati Sports Club. While this provider offers a range of benefits, there is no shortage of coworking staples such as free-flowing coffee and water, high-speed internet and access to meeting and event rooms. Choose between private offices or coworking desks all at flexible rates, with premium workspaces housing anything from 20 to 300 people.
