The annual report of the Iranian Coworking Spaces Association has been published. The results of this report show that, according to the owners, the most significant infrastructural challenge faced by these spaces is filtering and internet-related issues.
Additionally, the majority of monthly expenditures on VPNs by individuals in coworking environments have been less than 4 dollar.
According to Iran digital economy annotation, the 2024 survey of coworking spaces highlights both the capacities and weaknesses of these environments. Filtering and internet issues represent the highest percentage of infrastructural challenges, followed by a lack of space and building-related issues for expansion.
The survey examines both customer and economic aspects. The economic section reveals that most memberships in coworking spaces are on a monthly basis, with the highest monthly office rental rates ranging between 20 to 30 million tomans. The average daily rate for shared desks is between 2 to 4 dollar. According to the report, private offices are the most profitable type of coworking space.
The biggest financial challenge for coworking spaces is securing investment for expansion, with the primary issue being the lack of sufficient capital and suitable investors.
In the customer section of the report, it is noted that the male population is nearly twice that of females, with most customers being under 30 years old. Additionally, 51% of coworking space customers expressed an intention to emigrate. Most teams or startups working in these spaces consist of two to five members, and 64% of them have been unable to secure funding.
The provinces with the highest number of coworking spaces are, in order: Tehran, Isfahan, Hamedan, Kurdistan, Razavi Khorasan, Alborz, Qazvin, and Fars.
