Most of its customers in the country are in technology, pharmaceuticals and manufacturing, while financial organizations are among the new ones, Elizabeth Laws Fuller, WeWork's head of growth in Southeast Asia, told VnExpress.
WeWork entered Vietnam in 2018 and now has two locations in Ho Chi Minh City out of its 30 in Southeast Asia.
A recent survey by WeWork and market research firm International Data Corporation found that 80 percent of companies plan to use coworking space in the next three years. Another reason for the improving figures in Vietnam is its success in containing the Covid-19 pandemic and sustaining economic growth, Fuller said.
