πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Office-as-a-service platform opens 36 private offices in LA metro
Codi, who continuously insists "it’s not a coworking platform" but always positions itself Expand πŸ‘‡ as a "rival to WeWork" have announced that they’ve opened 36 flex offices across greater Los Angeles. The platform notes that they have leased 93k sqft for running private offices across Santa Monica, Culver City and Los Angeles with another 50 locations in the pipeline.
A reminder, Codi leaned heavily into "offices in other peoples’ houses", but seems to be pivoting back to managed private offices. Seems similar to Breather’s original model.
πŸŽ‚ Dayhouse turned 5!

Congrats Jessica Erickson, Jen Luby and the Dayhouse Coworking community!

πŸ€” “Coworking is failing” says shared space co-founder
Codi founder Christelle Rohaut shares their thoughts in Fortune magazine about how both commercial Expand πŸ‘‡ real estate and and "WeWork’s co-working model" are failing.
We can all (probably) agree that WeWork’s previous model needs work, but that their "latest bankruptcy filing represents an indictment of the coworking business model as a whole", I think not.
Do more people want access to private spaces? Yes. Do teams want more meeting and thinking spaces? Yes. Are corporations getting involved with, and allowing their teams to pick spaces? Yes. Can, and will, amazing community and business leaders around the world adapt to serve the changing needs? Again, YES.
IMHO: Coworking, with or without the hyphen, Christelle, is indeed part of the answer.
πŸ”« C&Ds fired following WeWont campaign
TechCrunch reports that WeWork have fired a cease and desist over to Codi following the latter’s Expand πŸ‘‡ "WeWont" popup marketing campaign. The C&D cites the "unauthorized use and misappropriation of WeWork’s intellectual property, false advertising and Tortious interference with WeWork’s contractual relations with its member companies".
Christelle Rohaut fired back saying they’d done nothing wrong when they set up booths outside WeWork offices in New York and San Francisco informing companies that their space might be shutting down, or by setting up a "WeWork Relief Fund" to provide discounted offices to businesses affected by closures.
What do you think? The popups outside spaces reminds me of another campaign some flex space brand did once. Worth noting that Codi categorically denies that they’re a coworking company.
πŸ—½ Fractional office co launches NYC launch.
Following the fractional offices trend we’ve been monitoring, Christelle Rohaut and Zachary Brown Expand πŸ‘‡ share Codi’s launch of their HybridHQ product in NYC.
In short an office in nomad area of Manhattan, with 14 desks, over 2,150sqft, with 2 conference rooms, and 2 bathrooms is available for 3 days a week.
