Spaces, Regus, Mindspace and Design Offices each scored highest on different aspects like connectivity, network reach, atmosphere and events.

The takeaway is to match needs like client meetings or quiet floors to the right operator rather than chasing a single winner. As someone with a pet peeve for ‘top coworking spaces in x’ lists, this hits home for me.

A CoworkingSpain report estimates Spain’s coworking sector generates €427 million in annual revenue, with 70% coming from just 14 operators including IWG, Aticco and WeWork.
