NEW YORK -- (BUSINESS WIRE) --

Regus, the world’s largest provider of flexible workspaces, today introduces New York to a new way to work with the official opening of its flagship business lounge at 747 Third Avenue in Midtown and a second street-level lounge in the heart of Chelsea at 275 7^th Avenue. These latest investments are part of the company’s global initiative to provide mobile workers with high quality, business focused locations where they can drop-in for either a few minutes or a few hours and stay productive while on the go.

“Research is forecasting that mobile workers will make up 40 percent of the global workforce by 2015. Relying on smartphones, tablets and laptops, these 1.3 billion workers are free to work anywhere but are often unable to find a professional place to conduct business,” said Mark Dixon, CEO, Regus plc.

To meet the needs of these remote workers, Regus has set out to offer its business services directly to mobile workers in transportation hubs used on a daily basis. In Europe, Regus’ lounges can be found in Shell motorway stations and train stations as well as retail outlets. In Brazil, demand has prompted Regus to recently open a street-level lounge.

Dixon adds: “In response to the growth in remote working we are opening a new location every day globally, so whether you are in New York or London, Sao Paulo or Phnom Penh, Regus offers the ideal place to work without the endless distraction of a hotel lobby or coffee shop. Our workspaces are designed to keep up with the needs of modern work, which include more interaction, collaboration and spontaneity.”

Individuals can enjoy unlimited access to any of Regus’ more than 1,500 business lounges worldwide through its Businessworld program with prices starting from US$30 per month.
