The center caters to the needs of modern businessmen, startups and freelancers in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region.

The company's India office is located in Gurgaon's DLF Cybercity. Garage Society provides a 24/7 facility along with good seating options ranging from hot-desking to private offices with no hidden costs.

We offer a thriving environment to startups, innovative entrepreneurs and modern businessmen so that they benefit from our flexible working ecosystem and 360-degree support system. We are very bullish about being in the Indian market and we have plans to grow exponentially in the days to come."

The flexible workspace provider has grown its operations tremendously well in Hong Kong and other neighboring countries. The company's focus is to become a global co-working space company in the coming years.

Commenting on the launch of Garage Society in India, Prashant Garg, India country manager said, "The reason why we chose Cybercity as our first location is because it is a futuristic commercial center and already houses top Fortune 500 companies."

"The co-working space in India is still in the nascent stage and represents a tremendous opportunity. We have plans to open four to six more such workspaces this year and take Garage Society to other cities as well," he adds.
