At GCUC UK in Manchester, Keke Patissier ran a live challenge where five teams used Koho Intel to analyze a complex multi-location coworking business in just 40 minutes with no prior training.

Each team found real growth opportunities, from recovering overdue debt to filling vacant inventory, with totals ranging from £350k to £3.2m. The takeaway: most businesses don’t have a data problem, they have a context problem, and when everyone sees the same revenue story, decisions get a lot easier.

Oliver Easton-Hughes from Koho explores how if you ask 3 people for their definition of "occupancy" in our industry, you’ll probably get 4 different answers.

"Is it contracted desks over total? Physical presence over capacity? Revenue-weighted? Does a hot desk count? And some of that disagreement is worth keeping….The mistake isn’t the definition varying between companies. It’s letting it vary inside one."

Elliot Gold, CEO of Work.Life outlined how coworking spaces are leveraging AI and automation to revolutionize their operations and increase profitability. The transformation encompasses several key areas including AI-driven lead management, personalized customer experiences, dynamic pricing strategies, and automated operational processes. Through tools like Orchestry, Koho.ai, and Teramot, operators can streamline administrative tasks while gaining valuable insights into customer behavior and space utilization, ultimately aiming to create smart operation hubs that better serve tomorrow’s workforce while maintaining profitable business models.
