OfficeRnD, the leading software for coworking and flexible workspaces, raises US$3 million to speed up its growth. The new venture round is led by Flashpoint Venture Capital and Launchub Ventures.
The company has been growing exponentially over the last 2 years, tripling its revenue year-over-year and significantly expanding its team and customer base. As for today, OfficeRnD has more than 500 customers operating 1000+ locations worldwide that service more than 100,000 members.
“With the new funding, we plan to speed up our growth and redefine the workspace as we know it. By automating all key business processes and significantly improving the members’ experience, OfficeRnD plays a key role in shaping the future of the flexible working. We will use the investment to take the user experience, the functionality depth of our products and the services we provide to a new level and achieve our long-term vision – To Make Flexible Working the Way of Working.”, said Miro Miroslavov, CEO and co-founder of OfficeRnD.
Coworking and flexible workspaces have been growing rapidly over the last several years. As technological advances make remote work easier, it is expected to boom in the following years, disrupting the multi-billion dollar office space rental market. More and more Commercial Real Estate owners create flexible offices as this allows increased yields as well as makes their offer more attractive to tenants. Small and large businesses have the option to rent on more flexible terms than the typical multi-year lease.
But setting up and operating a flexible workspace involves servicing hundreds of people and making sure they are billed correctly, can reserve shared resources and have access to the right places. There’s also a strong community element and the operators need to make sure that members and tenants get along nicely with each other.
To solve these challenges, OfficeRnD has built a software platform that automates all key business processes and integrates other workspace technologies such as access control, wi-fi, printing and more. To provide an end-to-end solution, OfficeRnD also offers a suite of white-label apps that help the members of flexible workspaces engage with their office (book rooms, self-administration) and the workspace community.
“With OfficeRnD, the member-facing services and the billing work extremely well together, so you don’t have to integrate it.” – Kane Willmott, Co-founder, and CEO | iQ Offices
