Here in London, I know there are a lot of non-VC businesses using WeWork offices including the normal people who occupy a lot of offices, like banks.

- hobofan 8y agoYeah, same thing in Berlin. Startups make up less than 25% of WeWork occupants.
- speedplane 8y agoIn NYC, my purely anecdotal experience is that it's mostly startups. That said, when walking around talking to companies, it can be difficult to tell the difference between a 5-10 person "startup" and a 5-10 person profitable small business. Most don't just volunteer their cap table.
- joshuatalb 8y agoAgree. I work out of the London Moorgate WeWork sometimes and as you said, a lot of the companies in there are banks. For example, Citi Bank occupy a large space on my floor.
- evgen 8y agoLots of banking there is seems. It feels to me like floor 3 of the building has more quant firms and recruiter teams than actual start-ups.
