The idea of co-working spaces is rapidly growing in the country. While the hubs were dominated by male entrepreneurs, the co-working spaces are attracting a lot of women.
After the culture of 'work from home', women entrepreneurs prefer working in an office set up today.
Co-working spaces in India are offering special facilities to women in the form of mentor sessions, creche facilities and networking to help them in their businesses.
Here are the top women-friendly co-working spaces in the country:
1. 91springboard
91springboard has emerged as one of the leading co-working communities with the largest number of hubs present across all key cities. Women being an integral part of the business ecosystems, 91springboard realised the need to encourage women entrepreneurs right from the beginning by introducing communities like Women Entrepreneur (WE) League.
WE League curates events to encourage, inspire, and mentor women entrepreneurs in their business ambitions. The platform helps women share tools, knowledge, and network to help each other lead, start, and grow.
