WORQ Launches WORQ Well: Malaysia's First WELL-Certified 'Country Club' Coworking Space Achieves Full Pre-Launch Occupancy

Malaysia's prominent coworking provider WORQ has unveiled WORQ Well, its innovative sub-brand positioning offices as exclusive "country clubs," at Aspire Tower in KL Eco City.

Spanning 34,300 square feet and designed for up to 500 members, WORQ Well reached full occupancy prior to its official opening, signaling strong demand for premium workspaces.

Pioneering WELL-Certified Coworking in Malaysia

WORQ marks a milestone as the nation's first coworking operator to secure the WELL Coworking Rating from the International WELL Building Institute.

This prestigious certification highlights WORQ Well's focus on elevating health, wellbeing, and performance standards in shared offices.

Globally recognized, the WELL standard spans six billion square feet of real estate used by industry giants like Novartis, Unilever, and JLL, aligning WORQ with peers such as Koba and Awfis.

Leadership Vision and Government Backing

Stephanie Ping, Co-Founder and CEO of WORQ, emphasized that WORQ Well aims to empower businesses in attracting and retaining top talent through superior workplace experiences.

The launch event was officiated by Steven Sim Chee Keong, Minister of Entrepreneur and Cooperatives Development, who praised such initiatives for bolstering Malaysia's entrepreneurial ecosystem.

Nestled in KL Eco City's integrated urban hub with seamless LRT and KTM access, WORQ Well caters ideally to hybrid and flexible work models.

Building on its legacy, including the Best Community Builder award at TNGlobal’s ORIGIN Innovation Awards 2021, WORQ continues revolutionizing transit-oriented spaces.

Future plans include nationwide expansion, collaborating with landlords to develop community-driven properties that enhance asset value and foster belonging.

In the post-pandemic era, WORQ Well's emphasis on wellbeing addresses rising demands for productive, inclusive environments amid Malaysia's economic growth.

This development not only elevates local standards but also positions Malaysia as a leader in Southeast Asia's evolving flexible workspace landscape.
