Abstract

While technologies now allow the emergence of new collaborative working environments, these new organizational methods, new spaces, and new objectives also refer to a set of issues and challenges that are not yet well studied. However, they bring significant results without necessarily being costly or complex to put in place. This is precisely the basis of the originality and purpose of this chapter. After defining coworking, the chapter presents the implementation of coworking spaces, as well as the benefits offered by these places for the benefit of entrepreneurs, businesses, and employees, but also the limits. The challenges related to the emergence of these new collaborative environments as new ways of organizing work are also addressed. They also try to bring a critical look at the reality of the coworking phenomenon.
