Monolab|Workspace is a network of open work places developed in cosmopolitan areas around the world. It is designed for small and large businesses looking for cost-effective ways to conduct business in a global and connected world, while meaningfully improving the business traveling experience of their collaborators.

Monolab|Workspace offers all-inclusive packages starting at $1,500/month, without any setup fees nor long-term commitments.

Monolab|Workspace is managed as a club, granting members from one location access to all other locations, at no extra cost.
