New spaces in Taipei follows JustCo�s expansion to Seoul, Melbourne and Sydney

TAIPEI, TAIWAN – Media OutReach – 13 May 2019 – JustCo,
one of Asia’s leading premium flexible workspace providers, has secured three
new centres in the region, with a new market entry into Taipei. Located at the Xinyi,
Songshan and Zhongshan financial districts, JustCo’s has expanded its portfolio
to 32 centres across the region, making this its eighth city entered.

Breakout Area at JustCo at Minsheng Jianguo, situated within a Grade-A building
comprising offices and a business hotel

The
expansion, part of the brand’s plans to triple its regional footprint in Asia
Pacific within a year to more than one and a half million sq ft by the first half
of 2019, follows announcements earlier this year of centres planned in South
Korea and Australia. To date, JustCo has co-working centres operating in
Singapore, Bangkok, Jakarta, Shanghai, Seoul and Sydney with soon-to-open
centres in Melbourne.

JustCo’s
flagship centre in Taiwan will be situated within a new mixed development, Dian
Shih building, comprising of an office
tower on the upper floors and an interconnected hotel, Hanns House, on the
lower floors. Both working professionals and hotel guests can benefit from a
shared pool of coworking and hotel facilities and services available at Dian
Shih, inclusive of Hanns House’s dining options, gym, as well as JustCo’s shared
workspace, community events and more. Due to open in the second half of 2019, JustCo
at Dian Shih will occupy the entire office tower spanning 65,000 sq ft across
seven storeys, offering a captivating and amazing view of the iconic Taipei 101
and Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall. The space will also feature a dedicated JustCo
lobby along with a full suite of facilities, including shower rooms and more.

Centrally
located in the Zhongshan district, the second JustCo centre is located at
Minsheng Jianguo, within a Grade-A building comprising offices and a business hotel, targeted to open in Q3
this year. Spanning 70,000 sq ft across two storeys, this
will be JustCo’s largest centre in Taiwan to date and will include a games
corner with basketball machine, as well as spacious meeting rooms and event
spaces to accommodate 40 and 150 guests respectively. The centre at Minsheng
Jianguo will also house JustCo’s first enterprise client in Taiwan — a
multinational pharmaceutical company — for a workforce of over 400 staff. As a
leader in providing bespoke workspace solutions for large corporates, JustCo
helps to conceptualise and customise large office spaces according to every
company’s unique identity and needs, turning their workspace vision into
reality. JustCo has
seen many large corporates including Fortune
500 companies increasingly adopting the co-working concept as they enjoy cost
savings, workspace flexibility, and community programmes that allow their employees
to seek new
connections and harness the collaborative energy in a co-working culture.

At
the third centre located in Songshan district, JustCo at Hung Tai Financial
Plaza will span 60,000 sq ft across two levels, interconnected by a modern
stairway. Situated at the premier office area in Taipei, JustCo will introduce a
large and multi-faceted community to the district, and inject new energy,
vibrancy and footfall to the building and its surroundings. Slated to open in
Q3 2019, JustCo at Hung Tai Financial Plaza showcases bright, modern and
innovative workspaces with phone booths, six meeting rooms, one nursing room, a
well-stocked common pantry, an event space to accommodate up to 100 guests, as
well as rest and recreational facilities such as foosball and dartboards.
Members will form part of the greater community and partake in specially
curated events and networking sessions specially curated by JustCo.

Localisation
is at the heart of each centre’s design and aesthetics and JustCo’s new centres
will draw inspiration from materials and feature commonly found in traditional
Taiwanese architecture, such as bamboo, bricks, and arches. As a tribute to
Taiwan’s national drive towards sustainability and upcycling, recycled
materials will also be creatively incorporated in the design and furniture
alongside a play of colours to inject vibrancy within the space.

Since
2015, JustCo has grown its footprint tenfold across the region. Driving this
rapid growth are strategic partnerships and joint investments with key industry
players. In 2018, JustCo announced a joint investment of US$177 million with
Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC and multinational property company Frasers
Property to support the growth of its co-working platform in Asia Pacific. JustCo
also has partnerships with well-known conglomerates such as Sansiri in
Thailand, as well as Gunung Sewu in Indonesia.

Key
to JustCo’s expansion strategy, these partnerships have enabled JustCo to take
on new leases and secure co-working spaces within iconic buildings in prime
locations across the region, such as the Seoul Finance Centre in Korea, which
is owned and managed by GIC, as well as China Square Central in Singapore, owned
by Frasers Property.

Founder
and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Kong Wan Sing said, “Our expansion in the last 12 months has been the strongest for us,
with 22 locations secured or opened. Our foray into new markets such as Taiwan,
South Korea and Australia will provide greater regional access to our members,
allowing them to tap into a larger network for more collaboration and
networking opportunities. As we continue to expand, we are also ensuring that our
‘software’ and systems such as our JustCo App are consistently improved to not
only complement but drive greater synergy at all our co-working centres across the
markets.”
