WeWork aimed to transform both physical and virtual workspaces by creating flexible, community focused environments. It sought to create a network where freelancers, startups, and large companies could collaborate. WeWork grew rapidly, establishing locations in over 100 cities worldwide. It fostered vibrant professional communities, creating spaces that encouraged networking and collaboration. It attracted large companies like Microsoft and IBM, which used WeWork for flexible office challenges. However, the initial public offering (IPO) of its then-parent company, The We Company, failed.
