Nooka Space continues its development plan and aims to develop in Bucharest an extensive network of micro proximity offices, through strategic partnerships with real estate developers, companies from HORECA industry and many more.

 

Launched on the Romanian market last spring, after an investment of over 1 million Euros, the Irish Nooka Space start-up aims to redefine the hybrid work style, through an innovative business model, which invites people to enjoy individual workspaces and more flexibility, mobility, and creativity.

Last year, Nooka Space launched in Cluj Napoca the largest network of proximity offices and marked a European premiere, Floresti village from Cluj County becoming the first community beneficiary of a Nooka proximity office.

Several studies conducted at local and international level show that working in a hybrid system will become the norm and will be the preferred working model of most employees.

A report published earlier this year by the local recruitment platform Hipo.ro shows that 80% of employers consider the move to remote work beneficial, whether almost half of them consider that the remote work will be the new norm of working in 2022.

At the same time, a study conducted on the Ivox platform in January this year, on a sample of 880 respondents, shows that 17.36% of Romanians worked remotely last year, while a percentage of 24.92% opted for the hybrid style.

In this context, companies are looking to adapt to the new working conditions and find the best solutions to meet the current needs of employees

Sergiu Băbășan, Country Manager Nooka Space Romania – «The option of working remotely, as well as the flexibility are becoming more and more important for employees. This puts a lot of pressure on employers, who are now forced to find the best solutions to keep a balance and to provide their employees with optimal working conditions. Nooka Space responds to this need by developing a network of micro-offices in the vicinity of employees’ homes and their areas of interest. This year our goal is to grow the network in Bucharest, especially in residential centers. We are in advanced negotiations with real estate developers, and we are planning to install at least 20 Nooka proximity offices in Bucharest by the end of the year. ”

The business plans of Nooka Space for 2022 also include the development of the production and technology facilities, as well as the implementation of new office models, including offices designed for indoor spaces.

Besides the objectives to develop an extensive network of smart proximity offices in Bucharest, Nooka Space also targets other large cities in the country, such as Timisoara, Constanța and Oradea.

Nooka Space proximity offices innovatively integrate the functionalities and logistical resources required for an office with state-of-the-art technologies. Any such space can be accessed through the mobile application Nooka Space, which allows users intelligent control of the office, from booking the desired interval to customizing the working environment.

At the international level, Nooka’s offices are located in Ireland, Switzerland, Italy and France and will be launched this year in other countries such as the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Austria and Belgium.
