“When we created Preferred Office Network, we envisioned a way to unite
independent operators under one powerful platform giving clients the
freedom to work anywhere while empowering local ownership.
Fifteen years later, that vision continues to thrive, proving that collaboration
and community are at the heart of progress. I’m incredibly proud of what this
network represents and the role it plays in shaping the future of work.”
