WeWork's CEO, John Santora, claims that the current uncertainty surrounding tariffs is positively affecting the coworking space industry. Businesses, hesitant to commit to long-term leases amid economic unpredictability, are turning to WeWork for short-term solutions. Santora noted that companies are expanding their current services and exploring flexible leasing options. He emphasized how this period of pause in investment decisions has increased interest in WeWorkâs spaces, allowing them to flexibly fill short-term needs during uncertain times.
With all the uncertainty around tariffs, who's prepared to commit to a 10- or 15-year lease?
The world, business, investments are all on a pause right now until you determine what impact it's going to have on your company.
WeWork's clients look to a player like us to give them that flexibility.
Do we really know how many people are going to be in the office? We don't.
