The days of working in a cramped cubicle are over for many people in today’s mobile work world. That has led to a rise of coworking spaces that allow for environments that are collaborative, inspiring, and stimulating.
By 2020, The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates 65 million Americans will be freelancers, temps, independent contractors, or entrepreneurs, making up a full 40% of the workforce. Venture X provides an attractive opportunity for those workers who want to benefit from a rich work community.
Like other “sharing” industries, Venture X franchisees simply provide the modern workspace and members buy private memberships, giving them access to open areas or private offices, whichever they prefer.
Many business models today are built on this collaborative model including transportation and vacation destination sharing. Venture X is at the forefront of this growing trend. Venture X’s unique combination of open space mixed with higher revenue private offices allows for higher income opportunities. Additional revenue can be generated from event hosting to further increase the bottom line of each location.
