HUB385

What HUB385 does

HUB385 is a privately held coworking and event space operator headquartered in Zagreb, Croatia, established in 2015 following an initial pilot phase. The company runs a single 2,573 m² facility across four floors at Petračićeva 6, containing 35 offices, 335 workspaces, 19 meeting rooms, and the modular Academy conference venue system with capacities from 8 to 160 people. HUB385 serves three primary customer groups: freelancers and independent professionals (predominantly from ICT, development, programming, marketing, architecture, translating, and real estate), startups and small businesses needing flexible office infrastructure, and corporate or educational organizations hosting conferences, seminars, and presentations.

The technology base is conventional coworking infrastructure rather than proprietary software. The facility offers 200/200 Mbit symmetric internet, video conferencing with staff support, HD projectors, portable TV screens, whiteboards, and modular room configurations; HUB385 does not operate a mobile app, public API, or third-party integrations. Stated differentiators are physical and experiential: 24/7 key-card access, pet-friendly environment, daily cleaning, business address registration, front desk reception, and an embedded community of 300+ active professionals who network informally across industries.

HUB385 monetizes through a mix of subscription-based recurring revenue and one-time event fees. Monthly subscriptions cover long-term private office rental (minimum 3-month contract), dedicated desk rental in open space (no contract required), tiered Virtual X/Y/Z office packages with varying coworking and meeting room allocations, and the Flyby part-time desk product at 3 or 10 days per month. Event venue rentals are priced per event. Distribution is purely direct — phone, email, website inquiry, and walk-in — with no third-party resellers. The company has supplemented operating revenue with EU Structural Funds grant support (476,725.64 HRK of 562,139.73 HRK total project value) for a multi-year SME capacity-building project administered with implementing partner Nest 01 d.o.o. and government intermediaries HAMAG-BICRO and the Ministry of Economy, Entrepreneurship and Crafts.
