infinitSpace has announced that beyond Zuidtoren, in the Hoofddorp area of Amsterdam, will be doubling in size.

Andrea Pirrotti-Dranchak explores the "power of proximity" in her latest Allwork.Space article, “The Real ROI Of RTO".

Included in the article are stats from MIT Sloan School of Management and Harvard Business School showing how proximity drives measurable performance. The piece also looks at how/why Instagram is moving to five days a week because in-person teams move faster, think sharper, and create better.

Industry analysis contends flexible workspace offers more predictable revenue than traditional long-term leases through six measurable drivers: lead flow, conversion rates, time to close, deal values, agreement terms, and churn rates. Allwork.Space published data showing that office vacancy reached 19.8% in 2024 while sublease availability nearly doubled since the pandemic, undermining traditional lease stability assumptions. The global flexible office market is forecast to grow from $39.6B in 2024 to $136B by 2032 at 17% annual growth.

The piece compares flex workspace to hotels and gyms as operating asset classes that deliver predictable returns through performance metrics rather than long-term contracts, though notes industry fragmentation limits capital market adoption with only one publicly traded operator providing consistent reporting.
