[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] Hutech announced on the 1st that it plans to strengthen its shared platform business by establishing a 'Hutech Lounge' space at the shared office Work&Co.

The 'shared platform' business is a comprehensive solution business that combines space planning and production, the establishment of a communication-based payment system, and massage chair products. Due to the impact of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), the number of office workers working from home without going to the company office has increased, and the digital nomad lifestyle of working regardless of location is expanding into ordinary daily life. In line with this trend, Work&Co, which opened the Hutech Lounge service, is a large-scale shared office that can accommodate up to 830 people.

Son Kyungchul, manager of Hutech's new business team, said, "While the vacancy rate of commercial buildings has increased due to COVID-19, the demand for shared offices has maintained a certain level," adding, "As shared offices have established themselves as a new alternative in the untact era, the shared platform business is also expected to be more spotlighted in leisure facilities including shared offices."
