Coworking1is a styleof work that involves a shared working environment, often an office, and independent activity.Unlike in a typical office environment, those coworking are usually not employed by the sameorganization.

Tenants, register onthe system and search for space to rent. Owners provide information about the space and Tenantsprovide information about themselves.
