Deskimo Launches in Switzerland: Revolutionizing Flexible Workspace Solutions

October 21, 2024

We’re excited to announce a major milestone in Deskimo’s journey: our official launch in Switzerland, marking our expansion into the European market! As a global hub for Web3 companies and the decentralized workforce, Switzerland’s robust service sector and well-established hybrid work culture make it an ideal location for Deskimo’s innovative workspace solutions.

Switzerland: A Small Country with Big Potential

Despite its compact size, Switzerland boasts an impressive array of coworking spaces catering to diverse needs. From urban centers like Zurich, Bern, Basel, and Geneva to local communities, these spaces serve a wide range of professionals:

Creative individuals seeking inspiration in community-driven environments
Corporate teams requiring private offices for local market operations
Hybrid and remote workers looking for flexible, near-home office solutions

The pandemic has accelerated the shift towards hybrid work models, with many Swiss professionals now preferring to spend just 2-3 days in the office. This change, coupled with a growing desire to reduce commute times, has created a perfect environment for Deskimo’s on-demand workspace solution.

Introducing Deskimo: Your All-Access Workspace Solution

Deskimo is pioneering a new approach to flexible workspaces in Switzerland. As the country’s first workspace aggregator offering time-based access to a wide range of coworking spaces and corporate offices, we’re eliminating the need for restrictive memberships or subscriptions. Our platform provides on-demand access to workspaces across Switzerland, empowering professionals to work whenever and wherever they choose.

How does Deskimo work?

Think of Deskimo as your decentralized office on the go. Similar to how Uber connects you with rides or Airbnb with vacation homes, Deskimo connects you with office spaces. Here’s how simple it is to use:

Download the free Deskimo app (available on iOS and Android)
Set up your account
Browse and select a coworking space
Scan your app-generated QR code at the entrance using the hardware scanner
Receive Wi-Fi credentials and start working!

Most locations offer access to hot desks, shared areas, and even soundproof phone booths, ensuring you have everything you need for a productive workday.

Flexible Booking Options

Need a meeting room or event space? Deskimo has you covered. You can easily reserve these spaces through the app or on our website at deskimo.com/locations. Approximately half of our meeting rooms offer instant booking confirmations, while others are reviewed within 24 hours. We recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred space.

Deskimo for Companies: Empowering Corporate Flexibility

While over 50% of Deskimo users are entrepreneurs, freelancers, or students, our platform was initially designed with corporate clients in mind. We help businesses ensure their teams remain productive while working outside the traditional office environment. This concept has proven highly successful in Asia, and we’re excited to introduce it to the European market, starting with Switzerland.

Setting Up a Business Account with Deskimo Switzerland

Companies can easily set up a business account at deskimo.me/new. Once established, administrators can:

Add employees manually or via bulk import
Set spending limits per employee or for the entire workforce
Manage costs effectively with our pay-per-use model

Employees added to the company account can select the company as their payment method and view their available work time based on their budget. The best part? If employees don’t use the service, there’s no cost to the company!

Deskimo for Workspaces: Expanding Your Reach

Switzerland’s coworking landscape is characterized by a variety of boutique spaces and small workspace chains. While these spaces often thrive locally, reaching a national or international audience can be challenging and costly. Deskimo provides a highly targeted, cost-efficient platform with no ongoing fees, helping these spaces expand their reach without breaking the bank.

We’re not just partnering with traditional coworking spaces. Deskimo also collaborates with companies offering underutilized meeting rooms, event spaces, or offices. This approach helps democratize and fractionalize “the office” concept, providing workers with professional setups when they need them most.

Growing Network of Partners working with Deskimo Switzerland

As of our launch, we’ve already partnered with about 20 workspaces, including well-known locations such as:

A bunch more are currently onboarding, so check back soon again to see who else joined the flexible workspace revolution!

Our goal is to offer over 100 workspace options by 2025. If you operate a coworking space, have underutilized office space, or want to list your meeting rooms, we invite you to join the Deskimo network!
