Included in the impressive portfolio of workspace brands under the umbrella of International Workplace Group, Regus is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with. The brainchild of the British entrepreneur, Mark Dixon, the company was established in 1989 and has since expanded its reach to an impressive 106 countries. It stands as one of the globe's leading providers of flexible workspaces.
Regus has over 300 locations across central business districts, airports, and suburbs throughout the UK.
While you'll find a cosy coffee machine in all Regus locations, the community-centred aura that is a hallmark of Landmark is absent here. Unlike Landmark, which prioritises creating community spaces, the focus of Regus is the crafting of corporate spaces. Individual quarters are secluded, offering privacy, yet are replete with every amenity one expects from a serviced office.
Regus's locations radiate an air of professionalism and sophistication in every detail. As such, the company is especially favoured by legal and financial professionals, agencies, and large-scale corporations. Regus also offers business addresses and virtual offices for businesses requiring them.
Emphasis is placed particularly on privacy and security at Regus, with enhanced safety protocols put in place for additional physical distancing, complimented by intensified sanitisation efforts.
