Be-Coworking

What Be-Coworking does

Be-Coworking (legal entity: Be Developpement SARL) is a Paris-based coworking space operator founded in 2006 by Ruben Grave. The company operates four physical locations concentrated in Paris's 17th and 18th arrondissements — La Jonquière (flagship), Les Épinettes, Be-Jazzy at Porte Montmartre, and Be-Cosmo at Charles Hermite — plus a provincial branch in Gisors (Eure) opened in 2016. Its core offering spans three product lines: nomad passes (hourly/daily flexible access), resident subscriptions (monthly shared desks and private offices with 24/7 access), and meeting/event space rental for 2 to 200 guests. Supporting services include business domiciliation, administrative assistance, digital accompaniment, and educational workshops.

The company's go-to-market is community-led, anchored on a blog, regular events (Pitch for Snack, Be-Club networking, mindfulness sessions, yoga), and resident referrals managed by a Chief of Happiness Officer role. Revenue is generated across five streams: usage-based nomad desk rental, recurring resident subscriptions, one-time meeting/event room rental, space privatization, and subscription domiciliation services. Customer segments are diversified across individual freelancers, early-stage startups, artists and artisans (notably via Be-Cosmo), associations, and ESS enterprises.

Be-Coworking remains privately held, founder-owned, and bootstrapped, with 51-100 employees and no disclosed institutional investment, M&A activity, or external funding. Its technology stack is standard coworking infrastructure augmented by cloud-based digital tools; space design is positioned as neuroscience-informed. An international partnership with Sun and Co (Javea, Spain) provides reciprocal member discounts for digital nomad traffic. The company has no proprietary AI capability and no patents or trademarks on record.
