Proudly Filipino 
Coworking spaces are the newest form of working environment available for freelancers, entrepreneurs and basically anyone who wants to look for a new place to work in. So if you’re tired working at your own house or having to find an open socket in a cafe, then this is the place for you. Coworking spaces are pretty popular in the western countries like the U.S and U.K. And in Asia, they are rapidly becoming a commonplace.
Here in the Philippines, you’ll likely find some coworking spaces in some of its highly urbanized cities in each island group, like Makati and Manila in Luzon, and Cebu in Visayas. As for Mindanao, we have coworking spaces in Davao, and the newest addition to the coworking space family in the Philippines, Hub 88.
