New HQ Centre Opens in Dehradun
International Workplace Group (IWG), the world’s largest provider of hybrid working solutions, has announced the launch of its new HQ centre in Dehradun, Uttarakhand. Located on the Haridwar Bypass Road, this new facility brings flexible working spaces to the region, catering to the increasing demand for hybrid work environments. The HQ centre offers a range of modern workspace solutions, including co-working spaces, private offices, meeting rooms, and creative spaces, designed to meet the needs of businesses and individuals alike.
The new centre is part of IWG’s strategy to provide top-tier facilities across a variety of locations, helping businesses and employees adapt to the growing trend of hybrid working. This development follows a global surge in demand for flexible workspaces, driven by the rapid shift towards hybrid working models post-pandemic.
Strategic Location to Meet Demand
The new HQ centre is strategically located at DDPM on the Haridwar Bypass Road, a prime location that enhances accessibility for local businesses and professionals. By introducing a flexible working space in Dehradun, IWG aims to support the region’s growing business and tourism industries while allowing workers to experience the benefits of a “15-minute city,” where workspaces are conveniently located close to home, reducing the need for long commutes.
Expanding Hybrid Working Solutions Across India
This new centre in Dehradun is IWG’s latest addition to its rapidly expanding portfolio in northwestern India, following similar launches in cities like Chandigarh. Uttarakhand, a vital hub for tourism and business, benefits from excellent connectivity to major cities like Delhi and Chandigarh, positioning Dehradun as an ideal location for hybrid workspaces.
Harsh Lambah, Country Manager India and Vice President – Sales at IWG, highlighted the importance of this expansion, stating:
“We are excited to further expand our footprint in the Uttarakhand region. Dehradun becomes the fourth city after Chandigarh where we have introduced HQ, helping to strengthen IWG’s growing footprint in northwestern India. Uttarakhand is an important and growing tourist and business hub with excellent road, rail, and air connectivity, serving as the gateway to the hill stations and the entire northwest region. Our new center will offer a mix of flexible workspace rentals, including office spaces and office suites that can be rented on short or long-term leases and customized as per client branding and layout.”
Facilities Tailored to Meet Diverse Business Needs
The 600-square-meter HQ centre in Dehradun will cater to a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, tourism, handicrafts, pharmaceuticals, biotech, agritech, and logistics. Companies can tailor their office spaces according to their specific needs, with options for short- and long-term rentals. The centre’s facilities are designed to provide a productive and collaborative environment, allowing both established firms and start-ups to thrive.
Hybrid Working: A Growing Trend
The opening of the new HQ centre in Dehradun comes as IWG continues to experience record growth. In the first half of 2024, the company signed 465 new locations globally, reflecting the rising demand for hybrid workspaces. IWG posted its highest-ever revenue, cash flow, and earnings growth in the same period.
The hybrid working model offers significant benefits for businesses, including a lower cost base. Research indicates that companies can save an average of USD 11,000 per employee by adopting hybrid working solutions. This growing trend is expected to continue, with estimates suggesting that 30% of all commercial real estate will be dedicated to flexible workspaces by 2030.
IWG’s Global Reach and Expertise
IWG is the world’s leading provider of flexible workspaces, with nearly 4,000 locations across more than 120 countries. The company’s members can access a wide range of business services and locations through the IWG app, making it easier for businesses to operate in a hybrid model.
As the demand for hybrid working continues to rise, IWG is well-positioned to capitalize on this fast-growing sector. With over 800 new partner locations added in 2023 and 83% of Fortune 500 companies among its customers, the company is set to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of workspaces globally.
Future Growth in Hybrid Working
As the shift towards hybrid working accelerates, conventional office occupancy is expected to decline. Businesses are increasingly turning to flexible workspaces as a cost-effective and efficient solution. With a total addressable market of over USD 2 trillion, the potential for growth in the flexible workspace industry is enormous, and IWG is leading the charge.
