Rosee Shrestha

Rosee Shrestha from Cobot recaps the Coworking Spain Conference in Barcelona… covering market data (Spain now has 1,069 active spaces), a Latin America operator panel, and sessions on occupancy, pricing, and the hospitality mindset in coworking.

The articles cover the latest data on Spain’s coworking market, operator perspectives from Latin America, growth strategies, AI and search, hospitality-inspired revenue models, and lessons from some of the industry’s most candid discussions.

Not every space is a coworking space in the traditional sense. MakerSpace NYC runs workshops, studios, and fabrication spaces across three New York locations, serving everyone from hobbyists to professional artists. This week Cobot asked founder Scott van Campen what running the city’s biggest makerspace has taught him about community, trust, and member retention. Rosee Shrestha draws out the lessons that apply to any operator, from full makerspaces to spaces with a workshop in the corner.

Most coworking spaces have rooms sitting empty at predictable times. This week Cobot explores what happens when you open those hours to non-members.

The catch? Many of them don’t know your space exists. Someone searching "podcast studio near me" probably isn’t thinking about coworking. Rosee shows how to change that. Part one of a two-part series on growing external bookings.

Rosee Shrestha at Cobot wonders what coworking operators can learn from the latest academic research.

From hybrid work and urban resilience to community governance, this recap highlights 11 insights shaping the future of coworking.

In this week’s Cobot newsletter, Ashley Proctor, Bernie Mitchell, Selina Schröter, and Hector Kolonas, share their perspectives with Rosee Shrestha around what is shaping how people pick coworking spaces right now. A grounded take on community, local relevance, and real-life fit.
