The new light-filled hub will offer 300 workstations including 74 private offices, two meeting rooms as well as virtual office services. Regus at Interchange House boasts an impressive reception and a combination of comfortable private offices, co-working spaces, and easy to book hot-desking options. The community areas and café in the reception offer excellent networking opportunities. A recent series of large investments in the area, including plans to build a new £1.4bn Westfield shopping centre in the heart of the town, has seen businesses flooding to Croydon and in need of a base for their operations. This will be the second Regus site in Croydon, one of the UK’s largest business districts outside of central London. The Regus at The Lansdowne Building has been open since 1999. Richard Morris, UK CEO of Regus, says: “Demand for flexible office space is growing rapidly – our research shows that 53% of professionals globally now work remotely for at least half their working week and 30% of corporate real estate portfolios could be flexible workspace by 2030. People are recognising that they are far more productive and successful in a dynamic working environment, while businesses are waking up to the financial and strategic benefits. Regus is helping to supply this demand and drive a workspace revolution in Britain. “We are delighted to be opening our second Regus site in Croydon. The area has seen excellent business growth over the last few years and it is an exciting time for South London.”
