The Workplace Hong Kong is the first co-working space operations outside of China for Kr Space, and the plan reflects the ambitious aspirations for Chinese co-working space operators to battle head on with WeWork and other regional players. Kr Space , which was spun out from Kr Space -backed 36Kr, has signed leases on three new properties in China , which it plans to convert into co-working centres. The offices, which are located in One Hennessy Road in Wan Chai , Time Square on Causeway Bay and the K11 shopping mall in Tsim Sha Tsui are its first outside mainland China . The move came as Hennessy Road nears completion of a $300m funding round. Chinese co-workspace providers are increasingly seeking to expand beyond their home territory.
