Coworking Switzerland shared a robust outlook for 2025, with 70.5% of operators anticipating positive business conditions according to their 2024 member survey. Private offices remain the most profitable space type with a 58.8% utilization rate, while location, community, and infrastructure are cited as the key differentiators for successful spaces. The market continues to expand rapidly, with Zurich alone growing from 19 locations in 2019 to 50 locations in 2024, and rural coworking is gaining traction with over 50 locations outside city centers.

With coworking currently representing just 1% of Switzerland’s total office market – but projected to reach 6-10% in coming years – operators have significant growth opportunities ahead.
