Justin Moran from Workspace shares how he uses Claude to automate a workflow that logs into Optix 3 mornings a week to email himself a tally of month-to-dare bookings and day pass revenue.

Apps are becoming APIs, and tasks that lived in your head (or in a todo list) are increasingly being automated. "The time saved isn’t the really the point, it’s the mental load."

Featuring Pauline Roussel (Coworkies) and Kelly Karn (Optix).

Whether you’re running a single-location coworking space or managing a network of flex spaces, this webinar gives you actionable insights not just from one operator but from 600+ spaces. You’ll leave with fresh ideas, concrete tactics, and a lens to evaluate your community strategy differently.

This will be a collaborative session, so come ready to share your experiences and ask your biggest community-building questions.

Kelly at Optix shares a thorough guide for building a high-converting sales engine for coworking spaces that includes funnels, tours, and automations to scale.

Fresh off the annual Coworking Canada Conference, Optix shared some insightful data on Canada’s coworking industry.

Valued at $285M USD in 2023, it is projected to reach $893M by 2030, representing a 17.6% compound annual growth rate that outpaces many global markets. As of May 2025, Canada has approximately 883 coworking spaces, with flexible and shared offices now representing roughly 8% of the nation’s total office inventory, concentrated primarily in Ontario, Quebec, and British Columbia. Hot desks average $200-400 CAD monthly while private offices range from $400-1,200+ CAD, with Toronto and Vancouver commanding the highest rates and Montreal offering more affordable options 20-30% lower than equivalent U.S. cities when converted to USD.

IWG is the largest operator with 13 new suburban locations announced in late 2023 totaling 168,000 sqft, while growth is accelerating in secondary cities like Calgary, Ottawa, Waterloo, and Halifax driven by hybrid work adoption and suburban expansion.

Kelly Karn from Optix shares 10 lessons from Justin Moran’s decade-long coworking journey with Workspace.
