The pioneering UAE-based company provides instant access to workspaces worldwide, helping to change the remote work landscape as we know it
Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 29th March 2023: With the beginning of Ramadan, reduced working hours in place and the recent announcement that His Highness President Sheikh Mohamed has approved remote work and study for the private sector during the Holy Month, on-demand workspace booking platform Hotdesk has revealed the best places in Dubai to work remotely.
The born-in-the-UAE company sits at the forefront of a new hybrid notion of work, where the idea of the workspace itself is no longer limited to the four walls of a singular office and individuals can work from home, traditional offices and co-working spaces all the over world.
Hotdesk helps make this flexible approach not only possible but effortless, granting users instant access to a huge range of options (desks, meeting and board rooms and private offices included) that can be booked online by the day, hour, monthly or yearly. In doing so they allow flexi workers the opportunity to operate from an environment that suits them best, ultimately creating a culture where creativity and dynamism thrive and the needs of the individual are better met.
Whether remote workers opt for a fixed desk spot and head back to the same location every time or mix things up with a regular change of scenery, Hotdesk has the ideal remote workspace option for all. During the month of Ramadan Hotdesk is granting users a special offer whereby they can receive 50 percent off up to AED 75 on three individual bookings.
Here they profile some of the best places to work from in the UAE, this Ramadan and beyond. NASAB
