What Officenter does

Officenter is a Belgian flexible-workspace operator founded in 2010 in Hasselt by Christa Jouck and Koen Batsleer, now co-headquartered across 15 branches covering Belgium (Hasselt, Turnhout, Aartselaar/Antwerp A12, Leuven, Vilvoorde, Aalst, Zaventem, Genk, Beringen, Sint-Truiden, Pelt, Mechelen, Geel) and the Netherlands (Maastricht), with 50,000+ m² of office space, 95+ employees, and 1,000+ corporate customers. The company sells a portfolio of subscription-based workspace products: Vast Kantoor (furnished, lockable private offices with 24/7 access and all-inclusive pricing), Coworking Fix (dedicated shared desk with cross-location access and 40 monthly meeting credits), Coworking Flex (unlimited hot-desking from €280/month), Virtueel (registered business address with mail handling, phone reception, and 32 annual meeting credits), Meeting Room (credit-based rental for groups of 2–60), and Atelier (workshop/industrial units). The technology stack centers on a web-based customer portal (mp.ultrasoftbis.com) for reservation, credit management, invoicing, and user administration, supplemented by electronic key badges, CCTV with 30-day retention, G4S nightly patrols, an in-house fax-to-mail converter, and the Officenter Connect networking platform and Benefits@Work discount marketplace. Revenue is overwhelmingly recurring monthly subscriptions bundled under an all-inclusive price (utilities, wifi, parking, EV charging, reception, meeting credits, insurance), with transaction revenue from additional meeting credits, catering via Bistro d'Office, printing, handyman services, and ancillary fees. GTM is hybrid: direct walk-in and phone inquiries handled by Happy Client Assistants at each branch, a free day-pass trial funnel driving online reservations, community-led acquisition through monthly networking events, yoga, golf, and running events, plus referral-driven enterprise accounts served by a corporate sales team. Customers span freelancers, startups, local SMEs, and multinationals (e.g., RedCompass Labs, NipponExpress, Rutronik) needing multi-region satellite coverage without traditional lease commitments; pricing tiers start at €280/month for unlimited coworking and scale per workstation or per credit for offices and meeting rooms. Co-founder Christa Jouck serves as CEO with a focus on growth and expansion, while Operations Director Kirsten Derhaeg (appointed January 2021) oversees day-to-day operations across the network.
