About Us
Founded from humble beginnings in 2010, we strive to provide our clients with the most flexible terms in the workspace industry. As today’s real estate landscape continues to change and evolve, our flexibility and mobility within our various service offerings remain constant. Made up of over 200 independent flexible workspace operators, our global coworking network is the largest of its kind.
We were built to compete, together. Preferred was formed to offer corporate users an alternative to large, commercialized coworking spaces. Flex space operators who join the network receive enterprise-level qualified leads sourced directly from Preferred’s one-on-one Fortune 1000 client relationships. Preferred provides account management services on behalf of its member operators, handling all paperwork, billing, and portfolio oversight.
Better, Together
Supporting Our Partners
Partners receive access to exclusive referral incentives, perks, local marketing support, and increased exposure to their locations and meeting spaces via Preferred’s website and booking platform. Membership is free and allows independent operators to leverage a global network of flexible workspace providers to attract enterprise level business.
Preferred’s mission is to make a positive impact in local communities around the world through its curated office network that delivers corporations with streamlined access to a variety of workspace options that connect and enable people to work where and how they prefer.
