FORUM<\/a> was recently featured in THEREALDEAL article titled “Co-working virtually: Coral Gables space rolls out memberships” highlighting our different virtual membership levels! <\/p>\n\n\n\n


From the THEREALDEAL article: <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Developer Rishi Kapoor\u2019s Location Ventures is launching virtual memberships geared toward coaxing people back to the office, as co-working operators get creative in the time of Covid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Location Ventures recently opened its co-working concept Forum, a 9,000-square-foot space at 275 Alhambra Circle in Coral Gables. About 90 percent of the space is private office suites with space for up to six people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The two levels of virtual memberships are meant to act as a bridge between a full return to the office and the typical virtual office space that offers a mailing address and other services. Kapoor, CEO of Location Ventures, referred to one new member, a landscape architect who had been working from home since March and \u201chad enough of it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The first virtual membership gives members preferred access for meeting rooms, use of Forum\u2019s address, mail forwarding and other services that typically come with memberships offered by giant co-working operators such as Regus. It costs $95 a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The second tier, \u201cvirtual plus,\u201d includes meeting room credits and desk space, aimed as a gateway to entrepreneurs and small businesses that want to return to the office slowly, Kapoor said. The \u201cvirtual plus\u201d membership costs $150 a month. It also offers business support services, including a business coach, marketing and accounting support and referrals \u2014 some at an additional cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


\u201cIt\u2019s not an all or nothing approach,\u201d Kapoor said. \u201cIt\u2019s a nice in-between approach.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The private suites at Forum are furnished and offer dedicated hard-wired Internet access to every seat. Private office suites start at $800 a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Location Ventures is planning to open in Coconut Grove and at an Urbin-branded project on Washington<\/a> Avenue in Miami Beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The company<\/a>, which counts Terra\u2019s David Martin and the Murphy family of Coastal Construction as its backers, owns its properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Kapoor is bullish on the long-term outlook of co-working, as are other operators in South Florida that include B\u00fcro and Pipeline Workspaces. He believes that traditional office rents will fall, and companies will want to reduce their physical footprints, a trend that is already happening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
