History

Established in 1989.

The business started in 1989 when entrepreneur Mark Dixon stopped off in Brussels, Belgium, and noticed how many business people were having to work out of hotels and cafés for lack of a more professional environment.

He knew there had to be a better way to work on the road and at home.

Dixon’s idea was to transform the way companies worked by persuading them to outsource their work place requirements to a specialist provider.

In Regus’ early days, the priorities of the typical business customer were to have a clean, well-​run office with receptionists; the latest technology being a shared laser fax machine!

Nowadays, Regus customers have many different requirements from business lounges with wi-​fi access to video communications suites, individual workpods, or flexible, hi-​tech meeting rooms. Or they may choose to use Regus services remotely.
