MIX Coworking

What MIX Coworking does

MIX Coworking is a physical coworking and flexible-workspace operator headquartered in Tassin-la-Demi-Lune, in the western suburbs of Lyon, France. Founded in October 2015 by Bénédicte Poncet, it is structured as a privately held SAS with €10,000 in share capital and a five-person team. The company was the first coworking operator to launch in Western Lyon and serves freelancers, micro-businesses, SMEs, and corporate clients seeking flexible workspace and meeting infrastructure in a secondary submarket of Greater Lyon.

The company's core offering comprises coworking memberships, six meeting rooms (each accommodating up to 16 people), private offices, and business address/domiciliation services, with event space capacity for up to 80 persons. It also operates MIX Café, a hospitality venue opened in 2023 at 5 Rue de la Liberté, extending the brand beyond traditional office rentals. Ancillary services include workshop hosting, event privatization, and community programming such as the recurring "Pitch ta boîte" business-pitch event co-organized with the Métropole de Lyon and Ville de Tassin-la-Demi-Lune. The technology stack is conventional and consumer-grade (Sendinblue, Google Forms, WordPress), with no proprietary platform or AI-driven capabilities disclosed.

Revenue is generated through multiple streams: recurring coworking memberships on flexible terms, meeting room rentals, private office leases, domiciliation fees, event-space privatization, and food/beverage at MIX Café. Pricing is transparent and accessible, with offerings such as a €100 TTC summer half-day card and tiered memberships. The customer base is diversified across micro-businesses and SMEs, with named clients including Jars Céramistes, Cocoaian SAS, and Bagane. Since 2015, the company has reported that 32 individuals found employment through its professional network, positioning community outcomes as a soft brand asset.

• Wojo: Wojo (formerly Bouygues cowork) is a large French coworking brand backed by Bouygues with sites across major French cities. It is a wide-portfolio incumbent offering overlapping coworking, meeting room, and domiciliation services at national scale.
• Spaces (IWG): Spaces, part of IWG (the parent of Regus), is a global flexible workspace operator with a strong French presence. It competes in the same flexible workspace category but operates at much larger scale and a wider geographic footprint.
