INFINITY8 is passionate about redefining coworking by promoting collaborative and efficient workspaces. Since our start in 2017, we’ve become a leading coworking office provider across Malaysia, with ten locations in Johor Bahru (JB), Kuala Lumpur, and Penang. Known for our flexibility and support, we’re honoured to receive the ‘Best Coworking Space in Asia and Malaysia’ at the 2022 PropertyGuru Asia Awards for INFINITY8 Reserve JBCC.
Coworking spaces have become essential for various professionals and businesses—from solopreneurs seeking a professional environment, to startups scaling their operations, and large organisations needing flexible, cost-effective workspaces. INFINITY8 has always focused on creating spaces that empower freelancers, small-medium enterprises (SMEs), and multinational companies (MNCs) to grow in environments built for adaptability.
The rise of coworking spaces and shared workspaces
The global coworking industry has surged, increasing over 1,000% in a decade. According to Statista, coworking spaces rose from just 160 in 2008 to approximately 18,700 in 2018, with the number projected to surpass 40,000 by 2024. Freelancers make up about 41% of global users, while 36% of corporate employees also use coworking spaces, reflecting the shift toward flexible work arrangements.
In Malaysia, coworking is also on the rise, fueled by startups, growing hybrid work and remote work cultures. As of October 2024, Malaysia has 335 coworking spaces, representing 5% of the market, which is projected to reach 30% by 2030, making coworking one of the fastest-growing real estate segments. Unlike global trends, Malaysia’s coworking users are predominantly SMEs and startups, followed by corporations, with freelancers comprising a smaller share.
In a world valuing collaboration and flexibility, coworking offers a structured, versatile workspace that enhances productivity and growth. In this article, we explore our three specialised coworking series—Reserve, Coworking, and Kongsi Work by INFINITY8. Each series is designed to provide the tools, spaces, and ambiance that drive productivity and collaboration.
We also highlight our top five INFINITY8 locations, each uniquely crafted to meet the evolving needs of today’s professionals.
