1) Tell us a little bit about Westhive and its Zürich Seestrasse location.

Westhive offers inspiring office spaces with high quality meeting & workshop facilities, spacious event locations and delicious restaurants. The first coworking space was opened in April 2018 in Zürich-West and since then the company has grown to 7 locations in Zurich, Basel, Zug and Geneva.

One of them is Zurich Seestrasse: This beautiful and modern space for companies of every size offers plenty of amenities. The location provides 150 workstations in private team offices and a large open space. It includes 6 high-end meeting and workshop rooms for up to 40 people, as well as phonebooths and meeting boxes. Additionally, there is a cozy lounge and a kitchen with a dining room.

The space is located right next to Bahnhof Wollishofen and the lake of Zürich is very close by and invites you for a promenade along the lakeside or a quick swim during the lunchbreak.

2) How does Westhive differ from other coworking spaces, event spaces, and members clubs?

Westhive combines a unique offering of coworking spaces with private team offices, high-end meeting & workshop rooms, large event locations and delicious restaurants. This is complemented by amenities such as gaming rooms, gyms and rooftop terraces. Additionally, our members benefit from our location network in the biggest cities of Switzerland Zürich, Basel, Zug and Geneva. But the most important factor of all is our inspiring community. We unite over 220 companies, consisting of startups, corporations, SMEs and service companies. Together we not only collaborate but also celebrate our member events, like the summer party.

3) What are the main benefits Westhive offers that you’d like the Dynamo community to know about?

Westhive is great for people and companies. We help PEOPLE to escape isolation and make them feel connected. Working together not only expands their network, but also inspires them and facilitates learning. Additionally, coworking helps people to get into a “getting work done” mindset and increases their productivity. Companies benefit from our offering in many ways: First, our high-quality, fully furnished infrastructure allows firms to cut costs. Secondly, our offering increases their flexibility – this facilitates growing or scaling down. Last but not least, our beautiful architecture and perks like a gym, restaurant or gaming lounge, make it easier to attract top talents.

4) What are you most excited about Westhive’s partnership with Dynamo?
We are really excited about the new partnership with Dynamo, because it is such an important global network for the new energy economy. It’s a great opportunity for us to connect with so many valuable stakeholders that shape the future of energy. We look forward to meeting a lot of members.
