Barcelona Strengthens its Position as one of Europe’s Leading Flexible Office Hubs

The flexible office market continues to grow at a steady pace across Europe, and Spain is positioning itself as one of the most advanced countries in this field. This is confirmed by the Global Trends in Flexible Office 2025 report, prepared by Cushman & Wakefield, which places Spain at a 63% maturity level – on par with consolidated markets such as Germany and Sweden, and just behind European leaders such as the United Kingdom (97%) and France (96%).

Flexible workspace is becoming a real alternative to traditional models thanks to its adaptability: companies can rent only the time, space and services they need, optimizing resources and gaining the agility required in today’s workplace landscape. Globally, 55% of the occupiers are already using flexible offices as part of their real estate strategy, and an additional 17% plan to increase their use in the coming years.

Barcelona: a key European hub in the development of the flexible market

Barcelona stands out clearly within both the Spanish and European context. According to the report, flexible space already represents 3.2% of the city’s total office stock, with a combined volume of 233,000 m² – placing Barcelona among the leading hubs on the continent.

The city has become a strategic destination for international companies, startups and corporations seeking agile, well-located work environments capable of evolving at the pace of their needs.
