“Premium services will be offered by a cup of coffee” which is a relatively new business model in Taiwan. Thanks to the internet booming in recent years, it becomes less and less difficult for people to create new businesses; which leads to co-working spaces largely increasing their numbers in the world, especially in the U.S.A. and in Europe. It has become a global trend where people go to work and go to socialize. However, there are few co-working spaces existing in Asia, especially in Taiwan; their spaces are not cheap or one has to pay membership fee.
You may or may not ever hear about the “Garage Café” in Beijing which is currently running a very successful business. It offers a low cost but high efficiency work space to entrepreneurs, start-up companies and many young people who have dreams of doing business. Our ideal is to introduce this type of business model in Taiwan; our goal is not aimed to make big profits but to bring a lot of business opportunities to boost the Taiwanese economy and to lead Taiwanese products to global markets.
