Flexible workspace operator The Flexi Group has expanded its footprint in the Philippines with the opening of Common Ground Digital Park McKinley Hill in Taguig City, its largest shared office in the country and the first under its Digital Park concept.
The launch also marks the start of a long-term partnership with Megaworld Corp. and MREIT Inc. to develop flexible workspaces across key business districts, reflecting the growing demand for office solutions that cater to hybrid work arrangements, startups and expanding enterprises.
Located at the Intellectual Property Center in McKinley Hill, the nearly 2,000-square-meter facility offers hot desks, fixed desks, private offices, meeting rooms and collaborative spaces designed for freelancers, startups, small and medium-sized enterprises, and multinational companies. It also features an expandable boardroom for up to 32 participants, soundproof call booths, and an event space that can accommodate as many as 80 guests.
The workspace is equipped with high-speed Internet, digital booking capabilities and administrative support services, allowing businesses to scale operations without committing to long-term office leases.
“The pandemic changed how companies think about offices,” said Roegan Taron, country manager of Common Ground Philippines. “We’re seeing growing demand from businesses that want flexibility without committing to rigid corporate leases.”
The company says flexible workspaces have become increasingly attractive to businesses operating under hybrid arrangements, allowing employees to work closer to home while maintaining access to professional office facilities. Startups and regional companies are also looking beyond traditional central business districts for more cost-efficient locations that still offer premium amenities.
Beyond providing desks and offices, Common Ground positions itself as a business ecosystem. The company regularly hosts networking events, workshops and industry talks to encourage collaboration among members, while a dedicated mobile app enables businesses across its regional network to connect, recruit and explore partnership opportunities.
The facility is also a temporary “swing space” for companies undergoing office renovations and offers meeting rooms and event venues that brands can rent for workshops, product launches and corporate gatherings.
“Our vision is to make Common Ground the third place people feel at home,” Taron said. “Your first home is where you live. Your second is your family’s home. Since people spend seven to 10 hours working every day, we want the workplace to become their third home.”
The partnership with Megaworld combines the property developer’s office portfolio with Common Ground’s flexible workspace expertise, paving the way for similar facilities across Megaworld townships. Common Ground currently operates workspaces in Makati, Bonifacio Global City, Ortigas and Quezon City, and is part of The Flexi Group’s regional network spanning Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.
