Regus, the leading provider of innovative workspace solutions, today announces the official opening of its 1,000th business centre in Port Louis, Mauritius. Coming almost 20 years to the day since the company opened its first centre in Brussels, Belgium, Regus now has a presence in 76 territories and more than 500,000 customers.
Welcoming the opening, M. Rajoo Jadoo, Director of the Board of Investment (BOI) in Mauritius said: "Mauritius is increasingly becoming known as a regional business hub and services centre. In this context, the Board of Investment is striving to establish a favourable investment climate in which operating businesses becomes easier. The investor who chooses Mauritius can now begin business activities and secure all the required permits within three days. The Regus business model perfectly complements our objective of allowing investors to be quickly operational by providing them with corporate-type workspaces. We are glad that such services are now available in Mauritius. We sincerely thank Regus for bringing its expertise and worldwide network to the country."
Mark Dixon, Global CEO, Regus comments: "In reaching this historic landmark we have, over the last 20 years, had to open a centre every week. This has only been possible because of the hard work and dedication of our people and I'd like to take this opportunity to thank them all, both past and present, in helping us get to where we are today. But this is not a time to rest on our laurels; we're already working on the next 1,000 centres, starting in Beaver Creek, Ohio.
"Be it Mauritius or Monaco, Milwaukee or Manila we are redefining the world of work, offering business of all sizes flexible, innovative cost effective and inspiring spaces in which to meet, work and collaborate."
The current economic crisis and the rise of the mobile and home-based worker is forcing companies to re-evaluate their workplace needs and ask themselves if they have the right mix of space.
Dixon adds: "We are on the cusp of workplace revolution, which will see fixed office workers become the exception not the norm. For decades companies have struggled to accurately forecast their workplace needs. As a result, on any given day something in the region of fifty percent of office space sits empty, while the other fifty percent is being utilized for functions that could be performed anywhere. The way people work is changing forever and Regus centres, such as this one in Mauritius, are at the forefront of this revolution."
The Regus centre, located in Ebene, is 10 kilometers from the island's capital, Port Louis, and will be based in Cybercity, a prestigious corporate complex. Cybercity is home to a wide range of multinational corporations and is considered the country's information technology hub. Regus clients will benefit from a business-ready environment, including fully furnished and equipped offices, meeting rooms, a business lounge and administrative support staff.
