When we covered the merger of SleevesUp! and Work Inn back in Week 30 of 2024, we mentioned that they would be forming a new unified brand. This week they introduced us to that new brand. Meet… Rivvers.

The German brands SleevesUp! and Work Inn are merging. The new company will support over 3000 members across locations in 29 cities across "Germany’s largest decentralized coworking network". They are also aiming to grow to 100 locations by 2028.

What I found out: A new brand will be formed and announced soon, you’ll find out more here in the newsletter as soon as I know more details. Pricing and membership will be streamlined by the end of the year, and after the new parent brand is introduced. Sebastian Schmidt will lead Finance, Expansion and Business Development. Sebastian Fuss is responsible for technology. Dörte Schabsky will take care of operations and interior design, while Tim Schabsky is responsible for revenue, people, and impact.

SleevesUp! shared (link in German) that they’re expanding to Heidelberg.
