Featuring Keke Patissier, Cofounder & CEO at Koho

Fact: 25% of coworking businesses are loss making.
But that means 75% are not.

If office real estate is going to keep up with customer demand for flex, service, hospitality and community, investors must to understand there’s money to be made.

In this epsisode, Keke Patissier and Brave Founder, Caleb Parker, discuss how coworking and flex space is moving office real estate from a bond like investment to a predictable recurring revenue stream - not to dissimilar from the software as a service model.

They explore the challenges of revenue leakage in this business model, and and the importance of data and taking a proactive approach to managing risk.

KK shares her insights on differentiating in the increasingly commoditized coworking industry and why office real estate may need more sales people than asset managers.
