Many industries readily adopted this pattern worldwide during the pandemic outbreak when it was extremely unsafe for people to come out of their homes and visit the office spaces by traveling long distances where they had a tremendous risk of countering the infection.
The governments of many countries all over the world imposed various rules and regulations on the industries and the people by implementing lockdowns and restricted movement to prevent the further spread of the infection and control the number of casualties.

In addition, the freelancing industry emerged as another growth factor for the flexible office market as it employed numerous individuals worldwide by enabling them to work within their comfort zone with the help of digital devices and internet connectivity.
The increasing fashion of outsourcing services has also greatly boosted the market for flexible offices, increasing the demand for coworking office patterns. As a result, medium and small enterprises worldwide have emerged as the major market players and consumers who have helped during the growth phase of the flexible office pattern, which has become the recent trend in the market.

Furthermore, data triangulation, which examines the market from three different aspects, is a recurring theme in all of our research reports. The following are critical components of the methodology used in all of our studies:
Preliminary Data Mining
On a broad scale, raw market information is retrieved and compiled. Data is constantly screened to make sure that only substantiated and verified sources are taken into account. Furthermore, data is mined from a plethora of reports in our archive and also a number of reputed & reliable paid databases. To gain a detailed understanding of the business, it is necessary to know the entire product life cycle and to facilitate this, we gather data from different suppliers, distributors, and buyers.
Surveys, technological conferences, and trade magazines are used to identify technical issues and trends. Technical data is also gathered from the standpoint of intellectual property, with a focus on freedom of movement and white space. The dynamics of the industry in terms of drivers, restraints, and valuation trends are also gathered. As a result, the content created contains a diverse range of original data, which is then cross-validated and verified with published sources.
Statistical Model
Simulation models are used to generate our business estimates and forecasts. For each study, a one-of-a-kind model is created. Data gathered for market dynamics, the digital landscape, development services, and valuation patterns are fed into the prototype and analyzed concurrently. These factors are compared, and their effect over the projected timeline is quantified using correlation, regression, and statistical modeling. Market forecasting is accomplished through the use of a combination of economic techniques, technical analysis, industry experience, and domain knowledge.
Short-term forecasting is typically done with econometric models, while long-term forecasting is done with technological market models. These are based on a synthesis of the technological environment, legal frameworks, economic outlook, and business regulations. Bottom-up market evaluation is favored, with crucial regional markets reviewed as distinct entities and data integration to acquire worldwide estimates.
