‘We aim to increase our capacity to 1,00,000 desks,’ says WeWork Chief Executive Karan Virwani

Global co-working player WeWork filed for bankruptcy in US last week as it battled expensive leases and hybrid work models of companies. Chief Executive Karan Virwani of WeWork India tells Raghavendra Kamath the Indian outfit would not be affected by events overseas and would continue to work independently.

Do you think the bankruptcy of your parent will impact your brand here?

WeWork India operates independently of WeWork Global, and our operations will not be affected in any manner.We will continue to hold the rights to use the brand name as part of the operating agreement, while serving our members, landlords, and partners as usual.
