WeWork Valued at $16 Billion
Based on their recent raise of $430 million at a valuation of $16 billion, it’s safe to say no real estate franchise is going to purchase WeWork.
That said, I still think the brokers and franchises reading should absolutely investigate purchasing smaller regional co-working players or starting their own.

This scares me. I like the concept, but a startup thats success is dependent on other startups booming has a lot of eggs in one basket. $16 billion sounds really frothy.

Even if all those startups fail, the people working at them will have to work somewhere… either at other startups or freelance/consulting etc. When those people think about “where to work”, WeWork will be part of that thought process.
