Hi everybody, sorry for my lately reply. I've started to write my master's thesis about Coworking for the innovation companies (The subject is Innovation Management, Faculty of Business Administration) I've already finished the first part of my paper, i mean the general accademic research about coworking and subjects related. Now I have to focus on the second part, but I have a doubt with 3 arguments, could you help me with my choice?
1st- write a business plan about an hypothetical opening of a coworking space in my city 2nd- deepening of the rural coworking, and explain the differences between management of rural one and the normal one 3rd- define the economic value of coworking, in terms of knowledge diffusion,higher productivity, innovation, higher revenues (with a survey and a subsequent analysis) Thanks for your attention, I will be very glad if you could give some advice.
