BOSTON–At a time when the traditional office market continues to face headwinds from the rise of remote work, International Workplace Group (IWG) is bucking the trend—adding seven new flexible workspaces across Massachusetts to meet the surging demand for hybrid and decentralized working models.
The global leader in flexible office space—best known for brands like Regus, Spaces, and HQ—is making a bold bet on the Bay State, bringing its Massachusetts footprint to nearly 50 locations. The move is part of a broader growth surge for IWG, which signed 899 new global locations and opened 624 centers in 2024, while also posting record revenue, EBITDA, and cash flow.
“We are establishing a stronger and much-needed footprint in Massachusetts with these latest openings,” said Mark Dixon, CEO and Founder of IWG. “As the need for high-quality flexible workspaces continues to soar, Massachusetts is a fantastic place to boost our expansion plans.”
New Centers Opening Across the State
IWG’s new locations will offer co-working areas, private offices, meeting rooms, and collaborative spaces designed for businesses of all sizes—from startups to Fortune 500 companies. Through its Design Your Own Office service, companies can tailor workspaces to their exact needs.
Here’s a look at the seven new centers coming to Massachusetts:
| Address | Brand | Opening Date |
|---|---|---|
| 200 Rivers Edge Dr, Medford | Signature | Aug 4, 2025 |
| 10 Post Office Sq., Boston | Regus | Aug 4, 2025 |
| 27 Mica Lane, Wellesley | HQ | Sep 2, 2025 |
| 1274 Osgood St, North Andover | Regus | Oct 6, 2025 |
| 100 Foxborough Blvd., Foxborough | HQ | Oct 13, 2025 |
| 49-55 Davis Sq., Somerville | Regus | Oct 20, 2025 |
| 460-480 Franklin St., Holbrook | HQ | Dec 22, 2025 |
The expansion comes through partnership agreements with building owners who are investing in the IWG platform to transform their real estate into branded flexible offices. The model allows landlords to benefit from IWG’s extensive global network and operational expertise while tapping into the high-growth hybrid workspace market.
Riding the Wave of Hybrid Work
As companies increasingly move away from centralized offices and embrace “platform working”—where employees can access a network of locations—flexible workspace has become a critical component of business strategy.
According to research from IWG and Arup, hybrid working can boost productivity by 11% and generate up to $566 billion in added value to the U.S. economy annually. Meanwhile, companies save an average of $11,000 per employee by switching to more flexible workspace models.
“Our workplace model is proven to increase productivity and allows businesses to scale up or down at significantly reduced costs,” Dixon added. “We’re seeing strong demand from companies looking to enhance employee satisfaction while optimizing their real estate footprint.”
A Sector in Rapid Growth
Despite ongoing softness in the traditional office market, the flexible workspace sector is experiencing explosive growth. Experts predict that 30% of all commercial real estate will be flexible by 2030, with a total addressable market exceeding $2 trillion globally.
IWG already counts 83% of the Fortune 500 as customers and operates thousands of locations in over 120 countries, all accessible via its unified platform and mobile app.
As the shift toward hybrid and decentralized work continues, IWG’s aggressive expansion in Massachusetts signals a confident—and strategic—investment in the future of work.
