Test 1 Serviced vs Managed Offices: What's the difference?

The flexible working model has seen rapid growth over the years, with serviced offices such as WeWork and other co-working spaces now a permanent fixture in the business world. Managed offices are a natural evolution of this demand for even greater flexibility and a more agile approach to work, particularly in light of the global pandemic.

There are some similarities and also key differences between serviced and managed offices. This piece will help to break down what those are so you can consider which might be the best set up for you and your company.
