Work Studio Coworking - The Idea and Starting Up
In the last few years, Patna has emerged as a buzzing startup community and looking for work-space was an issue that the startups faced. With a view to cater to this demand for well equipped and well-managed work-spaces, Work Studio Coworking was started.
Being an entrepreneur we had the calculation ready for the requirements of the city. We analyzed it well, pitched it with some investors and got some seed money to start with. It is a great excitement to bring something new for our home town. Although it was a common concept in metros but bringing it to our state really excited us.

The founders wanted the name to be professional, unique and something that defines their work completely. It was Rahul who came up with the name âWork Studio Coworkingâ.
The companyâs tagline is âwhere business grows togetherâ.
Work Studio Coworkingâs logo was designed by Alok. The logo has 6 hexagons which define the networking and collaboration of businesses. It seems all the different entities working together and help others to be completed which is our vision to bring all the resources together. Also, the logo has a mouse which defines our working structure.
