Gympass: bringing fitness to the world<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nGympass<\/a> is a corporate benefit that allows companies to give their employees access to nearby gyms and studios. Today, Gympass is active in 14 countries, serving more than 1,500 companies, with more than 45,000 associated gyms worldwide. To fuel that expansion, the team partnered with WeWork to find space for growing teams in key markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“When expanding to Europe in 2015, and then to the U.S. in 2018, the team knew we would need multiple smaller offices for local teams to work out of, and that they would need them to be up and running quickly. WeWork was the perfect solution,” says Nikki Salenetri, Gympass’s U.S. head of human resources. “The company was able to set up shop in prime locations without having to worry about the logistics that come with opening a new office, like activating phones, Wi-Fi, and other amenities. This allowed the team to focus on growing the business.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This solution not only ensured that Gympass employees would work in environments designed to help them do their best work, it also allowed them to work alongside other ambitious entrepreneurs. They could then network with people across industries and learn more about their target markets through WeWork programming like lunch-and-learns and other events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WeWork offers companies of all sizes space solutions that help solve their biggest business challenges.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n
