Zurich – The new Westhive co-working space is opening its doors in April and will offer around 180 workspaces. The Swiss Startup Group is among the investors, and will also become an anchor tenant with the Swiss Startup Factory.

The new co-working space is located in Zurich’s Hardturmstrasse and will offer workspace to startups, service providers and other companies. The focus is on cooperation among the future tenants, with the aim of creating new business models together.

The Swiss Startup Factory (SSUF) will move into the new shared office space as an anchor tenant, where it will offer support programmes for startups. SSUF is also involved in Westhive AG via its parent company, Swiss Startup Group AG.

“Swiss Startup Group gives us a partner with a long-term focus as well as direct access to talented entrepreneurs and interesting startups,” said Andreas Widmer, co-founder of Westhive.

Westhive describes the new shared office space as the first location in a new co-working and innovation ecosystem in Zurich.
