THRIVE Coworking — a flexible workspace operator focusing on community involvement — announced the opening of its newest location in Gainesville, Ga. The coworking location will target both large and small businesses, as well as individual remote workers with open spaces, private offices and conference rooms.

Located in a building constructed in the 1900s, THRIVE’s restoration paid reverence to its historic character by blending modern innovation with an antique look. Preserved elements include the building’s original tin ceilings, hardwood floors and the inclusion of exposed brick in the final design. The coworking space is also located in Gainesville’s historic square, which is within walking distance of some of the city’s best restaurants and shopping options.

“Gainesville is one example of THRIVE’s passion to revitalize downtowns and reinvent coworking by creating game-changing workspaces that enrich, excite and inspire,” said THRIVE Chief Revenue Officer, Chris Smith. “At this week’s grand opening, we look forward to sharing our coworking environment that fosters inspiration, collaboration and community.”

Notably, the Gainesville coworking space will offer a range of membership options designed for a variety of modern workers and companies. In addition to complimentary coffee, tea, and snacks, Thrive Gainesville will also offer monthly catered breakfasts, lunches and happy hours.

Besides these advantages, Thrive members also have access to all of the operator’s locations across the Southeast and Midwest. Plus, the Atlanta-based operator also recently joined The League of Extraordinary Coworking Spaces (LExC), a coalition of more than 100 coworking spaces owned by more than 30 brands around the world. This means that Thrive members will also have access to all of these hand-picked coworking locations, which are subject to common standards of excellence.

Being one of the newer names in the coworking scene, Thrive has a strong commitment to philanthropic goals. Specifically, it focuses on helping enterprises struggling with the new hybrid work paradigm, as well as acquiring distressed coworking operators. To that end, the operator is aiming to open 500 coworking offices across the U.S. within five years. It currently has locations in Alabama, Georgia, Montana, North Carolina, South Carolina and Ohio.
