IWG Expands Nairobi Footprint with Three New Flexible Workspaces Amid Surging Demand for Hybrid Work;
• Three new state-of-the-art centres are now open in partnership with a leading local property investor, complete with co-working spaces, private offices, meeting rooms, and creative areas.
• The multi-site agreement showcases growing momentum for IWG’s partnership platform as property owners seek to capitalise on the demand for hybrid work.
• The new workspaces are designed to support local SMEs, entrepreneurs, and large corporations, fostering vibrant business ecosystems and driving footfall to nearby retailers and services.
• This expansion follows a record-breaking year for IWG, which posted its highest-ever revenue and achieved significant global network growth in 2025.
International Workplace Group, the world’s largest platform for work with brands including Spaces and Regus, announced the opening of three new state-of-the-art flexible workspaces across Nairobi.
This significant expansion, made in partnership with a leading local property investor, addresses the accelerating demand for hybrid work solutions that support local business growth and reduce commute times for workers across the city.
The strategic partnership provides tailored workspace solutions across Nairobi’s key business districts:
• HQ I&M Tower: Located in Nairobi’s financial core with 157 workstations, this centre is deeply embedded in the primary business district.
It is ideal for finance, legal, and consulting professionals who will benefit from proximity to leading firms, cafés, and
premium hotels.
The centre will host a dynamic events calendar, including “Capital Connections” networking mornings to reinforce its role as a hub for deal flow and knowledge exchange.
• HQ Nairobi Business Park:As one of the largest centres in the portfolio with 265 workstations, this hub on Ngong Road is designed for enterprise and scaling businesses.
Situated in a campus-style environment with excellent road connectivity, it will foster a vibrant community through events such as corporate wellness programs and tech meetups, leveraging Nairobi’s “Silicon Savannah” ecosystem.
• Regus, 1 Park Avenue: Offering 265 workstations in a premium-grade development in Parklands, this centre provides a lifestyle-oriented work environment.
Surrounded by upscale cafés and retail, it will cater to a diverse business community with executive networking evenings and entrepreneurship workshops to establish itself as a high-end business destination.
The building owners invested in the IWG platform to maximise the return on their real estate portfolio by capitalising on the rapidly expanding demand for flexible workspaces.
Mark Dixon, CEO & Founder of IWG, commented: “We are establishing a stronger and much-
needed footprint in Nairobi with these latest openings, and our partnership with Regus and HQ in Nairobi is a testament to the proven value of our platform.
The demand for flexible work is a permanent transformation, driven by companies that recognise it boosts productivity and lowers
costs, and by employees who want a better work-life balance with a shorter commute.
These new locations are another step in our strategy to provide world-class facilities in the heart of
communities everywhere.”
“We are excited to partner with IWG to introduce globally recognised brands such as Regus and HQ in Nairobi.
Through this partnership, we aim to deliver world- class solutions that support the evolving needs of enterprises and entrepreneurs across Kenya.”
Stated Sachit Raja-Shah.Peter Kibera, IWG Country Manager for Kenya, added, “This partnership is a direct response to the demand for high-quality, flexible workspaces.
By establishing these centres, we are not only providing world-class facilities for businesses but also creating a ripple effect that boosts the local economy and footfall for surrounding retailers and services. We are creating true community hubs that support local business growth.”
