Runway East has signed a 15-year lease with Samsung at 200 Aldersgate in the City of London, securing 35,000+ sqft in the 400,000 sqft building near St Paul’s.

Natasha Guerra, Runway East’s CEO, called it a significant step for the flexible workspace sector.

Natasha Guerra and Josh Dane made a special delivery of a £13,500 donation that the Runway East community raised for the Evelina Children’s Hospital.

Runway East has launched a new 12k sqft stand-alone workspace at 150 Borough High Street, opening with 53% occupancy. This makes the firm the largest flexible workspace operator in London Bridge, and also brings their total to 13 locations across the UK. This is their second collaboration with landlords Peer Group and follows the success of their Wardour Street managed office, which reached full capacity within nine months.

Founder Natasha Guerra highlights the company’s strong presence in London Bridge, its growing landlord partnerships, and rising demand from global corporations for flexible workspace.

Natasha Guerra, CEO at Runway East, shared a summary of a (unfortunately and frustratingly paywalled) piece by CoStar that delves into what the "flight to quality" actually means from an operational perspective.

"It’s not just about who has the newest or most expensive building – it’s about how the operator brings it to life." Yes, Natasha! Yes!

Josh Dane of Runway East delivered a passionate appeal at the recent Flexible Space Association Conference, urging coworking companies to consider hiring teachers seeking career changes.

Drawing from his own challenging transition from education to the flexible workspace industry, Dane highlights how the valuable skills teachers possess—exceptional time management, attention to detail, emotional intelligence, clear communication, and "customer service" experience with parents—make them ideal candidates for various roles. Despite applying to 70 companies during his career change with fewer than 10 even responding, Dane eventually found success at Runway East when their CEO, Natasha Guerra, took a chance on his "rogue" application.

Now thriving as Business Operations Manager, he advocates that "there are no junior, and very few mid-level, roles that a teacher couldn’t do," encouraging hiring managers to see beyond traditional experience and recognize the transferable skills educators bring to the workspace sector.
