The concept of coworking stems from the principle that independent professionals can do far better in a community than they can do all alone.

It is said that coworking is a state of mind, whereas community is a unique global movement. The backbone of coworking spaces is the operations team and the community development or management team.
The operations team takes care of the entire operational activities of the co-working space inclusive of infrastructure and IT support, administration, security matters, and other client support and comfort factors.
The community management team is expected to create communities, enhance membership and retain them through a whole lot of activities, so as to ensure the utilization of the space to the best.
