PHUKET: The opening of the Regus Royal Phuket Marina (RPM) Business Centre earlier this year brought a successful business model of the modern world to Phuket simply by providing flexible workspace options tailored to individual needs. The Regus RPM Business Centre is the first to open outside Bangkok, where 16 other centres are already up and running, among 18 in the country. The only other Regus centre in the Kingdom is in Sri Racha. Key to the Regus model is that signing up to use the Regus RPM business centre opens the door to using any one of 3,000 Regus Business Lounges in 120 countries. In defining what drives the workspace industry, Paul MacAndrew, Country Manager Thailand & Singapore, notes, “Technology has stripped away the restrictions of time and place: the right workspace is whatever people need, when they need it. “Our growing range of products and office formats enables us to deliver working environments that match the needs of any consumer. This is allied to continuous investment in innovation, which drives our global technology networks and cutting-edge workplace services.” The products and services at Regus RPM are world standard, and range from fully-equipped offices from B5,999 a month to co-working spaces from B790 a month. Regus RPM offers individuals and companies 103 short-term and long-term workspaces right by the waterfront with 24-hour access and parking; an inspirational setting with state-of-the-art facilities, including world-class IT. The prestigious and professional waterside address boosts a corporate image within Thailand, Asean and beyond, notes Regus. The Regus Business Centre offices deliver a more customised office package than standard rentals. This makes Regus not only ideal for Phuket’s many local start-ups but also for Bangkok companies looking for a Phuket satellite office and international companies establishing a base in Thailand outside the capital. Regus also enables businesses to grow and develop through its world-renowned flexible office solutions. Catering to start-ups and existing businesses, Regus offers extensive flexible office and co-working solutions, allowing people to work where, when, and how they want, and “Virtual Office” solutions for home-based workers, start-ups, and established firms moving into new markets. Of note, those who have tried operating a business in Thailand without a postal address will be stunned to learn that Regus offers such a service with its telephone answering, business address and mail delivery services, ranging from Mailbox from B1,290, Telephone Answering from B1,890 and Virtual Office from B3,190. Yet for the independent worker on the move, the co-working option is proving popular, with options to use the co-working area for five days, 10 days or unlimited use per month. When you want the facilities and space of an office but only need to drop-in occasionally, co-working is the convenient and practical solution. With Regus Co-working services, you’ll only pay for the space you use, with no need to commit to the financial investment of permanent office space. All of our co-working spaces are provided with everything set up and ready to use immediately: telephones, computers and internet, printers, and a comfortable workspace. We’ll also make sure that there’s a dedicated team to support you with administration and general office management. Beyond the functional aspects, Regus RPM also provides a key venue for networking through its community of clients. We help you to make new contacts, meet local businesses, share ideas and create new business opportunities. Whether you chat over a coffee in a relaxed communal space, meet like-minded professionals at our monthly social events or connect with hundreds of people at our signature events, Regus offers the perfect networking opportunity to make that connection that will really count. Regus also often provides the platform for corporate annual retreats, where professionals can take time out from work and learn from recognised business leaders. In this digital age, there is also the opportunity to connect with the Regus community using our social network.
