Less than four years after its arrival on the flexible workspace market - in June 2021 - Worklib already boasts the European leadership. And no big surprise there. Because the start-up has never hidden its appetite. In an interview with Voyages d'Affaires just over a year ago, CEO Charles Vestur said: "We've never hidden our appetite. the desire to build the future world leader in workspace reservation. Like Booking or Airbnb on accommodation ".

Notwithstanding the two market heavyweights mentioned above, it was another hosting behemoth that spotted the opportunity and quickly invested in Worklib: " The Accor group was keen to develop workspaces in its hotels, as is the case with Wojo. Having missed out somewhat on the Booking and Airbnb trends, it was determined not to miss out on this opportunity, as there is bound to be room for a flexible workspace distribution platform. "said Charles Vestur.
