Adam Chew of Croissant, analyzes 3.5M+ hours of coworking data to show that hybrid work is now a structured, team-centric system where over 70% of bookings are for collaboration, recurring team sessions have risen 48% since 2022, and July has become one of the busiest coworking months.

This debunks common myths by revealing that most sessions are made by full-time product, engineering and R&D teams; that companies with intentional collaboration rhythms see 2–3x higher coworking utilization than those only offering stipends; and that consistent or rising coworking usage from 2023–2025 signals hybrid work is a durable shift rather than a temporary phase.

Spacent announces a strategic partnership with Croissant to give distributed teams unified access to more than 1,900 flexible workspaces across North America, Southern Europe, the Nordics, the UK, and continental Europe, reducing the need for multiple vendors and fragmented booking tools.

Co-announced by Eetu Ristaniemi, CEO of Spacent, and Zoltan Szalas, CEO of Croissant, the collaboration launches in Q1 2026 with pilot customers in cities including Minneapolis, Austin, New York, and Helsinki, focusing on simpler hybrid workplace management for global enterprises.
