More and more people are employing themselves and contribute their talents and services to the (online) communities around them. So, they don’t go to corporate offices anymore. The trend is illustrated by the fact that co-working spaces are popping up everywhere in cities around the world. This week startup WeWork purchased a massive department store in New York City. The building will be converted into a coworking space where entrepreneurs will share space and office services while having the opportunity to collaborate.
