Regus flexible space now available in 92 countries worldwide
LJUBLJANA, Slovenia -- (BUSINESS WIRE) --
Regus, the world's largest provider of flexible workspace, has opened its first business centre in Slovenia, in Ljubljana. The launch follows openings in Croatia and Serbia earlier in 2011, and brings the number of countries where Regus offers flexible workspace to 92.
The expansion of Regus's network in the Balkans, and further afield, is a response to the growing demand for flexible workspace, as organisations adopt new ways of working. Over the next three years, Regus plans to increase its worldwide network by at least 75%, equating to over 800 additional business centres.
Mark Dixon, CEO for Regus, comments: "Globally over eight out of ten (81%) businesses now offer their workforce some form of flexible working.1 This trend is feeding into record levels of enquiries for Regus's flexible workspace. We've opened the new centre in Ljubljana to satisfy that demand."
The availability of Regus flexible workspace in Ljubljana will allow local and international businesses to explore growth opportunities in Slovenia, which is starting to show a gentle economic recovery after being hit hard by the financial crisis of 2008. There are good opportunities in sectors like life sciences, pharmaceuticals and ICT. Businesses will be able to develop their presence in the Balkans, without making expensive, long-term property commitments. Slovenian companies can also use the global Regus network to explore opportunities abroad.
Mark Dixon explains: "The latest Regus Business Confidence Index showed that companies that trade internationally feel they have better prospects than those with mainly domestic markets. By expanding our network in the Balkans, and beyond, we're making it easier for more companies to improve their own prospects - helping them open up new revenue sources and new opportunities for growth."
Note for Editors
The new business centre is located at the heart of Republic Square, a sought after business address in Ljubljana, opposite the national Parliament.
