REA Group and WeWork to support flexible work by teaming up

April 18, 2019

Global online real estate marketing company, REA Group, is continuing to morph how it showcases property to the world by entering a strategic partnership with flexible workspace aggregator, The We Company (formerly known as WeWork), to help spread the coworking trend to Australia.

With this partnership, WeWork's Australian listings will be advertised by REA Group's commercial property arms, Spacely and realcommercial.com.au.

Spacely is considered one of the largest short-term workspace listings sites in Australia and will house all 16 of WeWork's locations in Australia. The site will also collaborate with WeWork for events and on content creation to popularize flexible coworking spaces in the country.

Joseph Lyons, REA Group Executive General Manager – Developer, Media & Commercial, commented: “WeWork has done an incredible job of creating shared working communities around the world and we’re excited to be able to bring these spaces to more Australians through Spacely and realcommercial.com.au.

“Together, Spacely and realcommercial.com.au provide unparalleled access to the largest audience of short and long-term commercial property seekers in Australia.”

WeWork is a pioneer in flexible work environments, present all over the world, spreading its ideals of productivity, connection and innovation with its unique private offices. WeWork offers spaces for all sectors and scales; whether it be artistic like graphic and web design, to tech companies and financial, both institutes as well as on an individual level. 

As for its plans for Australia, WeWork is wasting no time branching out into the unmarked territory, with its first location from a few years back, growing to more than 100,000 members across the country.
