International Workplace Group (IWG), the world’s leading provider of hybrid working solutions, has announced the launch of Regus The Centre, Karachi—a premier flexible workspace catering to businesses of all sizes. Set to open in June 2025, the 1,100 sqm location is part of IWG’s rapid expansion, driven by soaring demand for high-quality, adaptable work environments in Pakistan.
The facility will offer private offices, meeting rooms, co-working areas, and creative spaces, supporting industries including technology, finance, media, e-commerce, consulting, and education. Additionally, IWG’s Design Your Own Office service allows businesses to tailor workspaces to their exact needs.
The new Karachi location aligns with the growing 15-minute city concept—allowing professionals to work closer to home, reducing commute times, and improving work-life balance. With hybrid work becoming the norm, Pakistan’s business community is increasingly shifting towards cost-effective and flexible office solutions.
A Strategic Partnership for Growth
The launch of Regus The Centre, Karachi, is made possible through a partnership between IWG and JS Investments Limited, a move that maximizes real estate potential by tapping into the hybrid workspace revolution. JS Investments Limited, managers of the JS Rental REIT Fund, recognizes the transformative potential of flexible work environments.
“As Pakistan’s economic hub, Karachi is witnessing increasing demand for adaptable workspaces,” said Iffat Mankani, CEO of JS Investments Limited. “This collaboration with IWG reflects our commitment to fostering business growth by offering premium, flexible office solutions.”
Hybrid Work: The Future of Business
IWG’s global expansion reflects the rapid growth of hybrid working. By 2030, an estimated 30% of all commercial real estate is expected to be flexible workspace. This shift allows companies to reduce costs by an average of Rs3 million per employee, while increasing employee satisfaction, productivity, and sustainability.
“Karachi is a key market for us as we expand our global footprint,” said Mark Dixon, CEO & Founder of IWG. “Businesses worldwide are realizing the benefits of hybrid work—higher efficiency, happier employees, and reduced costs. This new opening will provide top-tier workspaces tailored to the needs of Pakistan’s evolving workforce.”
With 4,000+ locations across 120+ countries and 83% of Fortune 500 companies among its clientele, IWG remains at the forefront of the hybrid work revolution.
