Cohere has almost 50% of square footage dedicated to offices. I think we pull it off by doing a few things: -being real clear about what/who we are when we try to find members for private offices -you have to pass by many of our offices to get to the shared spaces (coworking, kitchen, restroom and conference rooms). this is huge -I make the rounds every morning I'm in and visit all the office members. If they have laptops, they are always always welcome to come upstairs to cowork and they do. So fun. -our private office members are MORE likely to attend our social events since they get less day to day interaction
