8 years ago we started with a very small 40-desk, 1500 sq. ft. location in Lahore.
At that time we didn’t even know that what we have developed is called a “Coworking space”. We felt that there is a need for quality office spaces that individuals and companies could share. It was after two months of starting our space that we realised that it is an established concept in some markets known as a “Coworking space”.
As soon as we had refined our model and were looking to scale, we faced our 1st major challenge in the form of Covid-19. An existential challenge at that time, Covid-19 also proved to be a blessing in disguise in other ways. Post-Covid, the adoption of the coworking model turbo-charged and companies increasingly started to shift to Coworking from the traditional lease model.
2021 was an inflection point for us in two ways: We did our 1st expansion outside of Lahore with the launch of our 1st location in Karachi. We also came up with our 1st property on the Landlord Partnership model where Kickstart partners up with building owners to launch coworking spaces at their properties.
In 2022, we expanded our footprint further, with the launch of our 1st location in Islamabad.
At the end of 2024, we had 5000+ desks across seventeen (17) locations in three (3) cities, with our coworking spaces spanning over 300,000+ sq. ft – making us the leading coworking operator in Pakistan.
