Westhive has been conceived to be more than just a coworking space. The aim was to create an innovation ecosystem for startups, corporations and freelancers in which they can share their thoughts, collaborate and bring great ideas to life. This is why we paid great attention the setup of the space. The dedicated work areas allow for concentrated focus, whereas our lounges and our restaurant – The Westhive Kitchen – are perfect for informal exchange with fellow coworkers and creative breaks with food and drinks alike. The perfect balance of work and play. Westhive has been created as a space that we as founders would love to work in as well. Which we will. Zürich | Basel | Zug | Geneva
