The Place for Better Business 🚀✨ It's been a while since we re-introduced ourselves. At x+why we're on a mission to change the way the world works, for good. Across our 10 sites and 4 cities, members enjoy private offices, coworking, and breakout areas, as well as events programmes, meeting rooms, access to private clubspaces and more.

Changing the way the world works for good. Flexible workspace for businesses with purpose. A Certified B Corporation
About us
x+why provides flexible workspaces to a community of purpose led entrepreneurs and businesses. We are home to businesses of all sizes, from all sectors. Businesses that have a common goal – to make a difference. They understand, or want to understand, the revolution that is taking place in the workplace; the link between purpose, people and profit. By inspiring businesses to seek out and deliver on their purpose we help them attract best in class talent, build better relationships with customers and suppliers, make a positive impact in society and make more profit. x+why does this by working with landlords to design, manage and operate inspirational and flexible workspaces, which champion purpose as well as profit. Imagine a workspace where ideas are shared, employees are engaged, well being and technology are central, plans are hatched and social impact is achieved. Together, under one roof, we can do more. x+why has flexible workspaces across the UK in London, Birmingham, Manchester and Milton Keynes, with many more set to open. All of the sites challenge the future of work and support better business, they also place a large emphasis on technology and wellness - we aim to create a space to inspire and stimulate. With a range of flexible memberships, x+why have space for every type of member and cater for every type of mood (from creative, quiet to sociable space).

Last week, we had the pleasure of kicking off Cohort 2 of the Ascend Programme at x+why Fivefields in London! We gathered with our new cohort of female and non-binary founders, alongside our partners at Foundervine and OneTech. It was fantastic to see Cohort 2 getting to know each other during the networking sessions, sharing both the successes and challenges of their startup journeys. The diversity of sectors represented by these founders was truly impressive, and it was exciting to hear their unique stories. Jamal Hadjkura, Jonny Clark and Gracie Jones set the stage with inspiring words about what Ascend is all about. Hearing Jamal talk about helping underrepresented founders “get in the room and meet the right people” was a reminder of why this work is so important. This was echoed in Jonny’s message about ensuring “everyone has a fair go at the startup game” and really drove home the core purpose of this programme. We also had the pleasure of hearing from Rishi Chowdhury, Ascend alum and Incube Space co-founder, who shared how the programme helped him prepare for a seed round and make crucial connections. His story of manufactured serendipity is exactly what Ascend is designed to create—opportunities for founders to be in the right place at the right time with the right people. We’re really looking forward to seeing how Cohort 2 progresses through the programme and getting to know each of these innovative founders and startups better. If the launch event is any indication, this cohort is more than ready to take their businesses to the next level and meet their fundraising goals. Thank you to everyone who helped make this event a success! Stay tuned for more updates on the incredible work happening in the Ascend Programme. #Startups #FemaleFounders #NonBinaryFounders #Innovation #Founders #Networking #AscendProgramme #CapitalEnterprise
