Mindspace has established itself as a key player in an exciting, quickly-evolving asset class and its strong brand, product and strong financial performance position the company perfectly for expansion in new and existing markets.”

Last year, Mindspace saw high demand across all of its locations, reaching pre-pandemic occupancy levels and even exceeding them in some markets - such as Israel, Germany and Poland - with over 95%. In an investment round late November 2021, Mindspace raised $72 million to support further growth and expansion plans, globally. The company is scheduled to open two new locations in Berlin in the summer of 2022, bringing Mindspace in Germany to a total of 10 locations. The two locations will cover 11,500 sqm. in total – 7,000 sqm. in the FÜRST project and 4,500 sqm. on Zimmerstraße. The building on Zimmerstraße consists of eight floors, which will be entirely occupied by Mindspace.
