The days of striving to rent, build or own traditional office space before starting a business are quickly dying. The availability of co-working space in Lagos and almost everywhere has enabled many SMEs to start up and operate efficiently.
Besides the free workspace, other necessities such as electricity and the internet usually include their paid plans. The benefits of the collaborative space cannot be overstated.
