Publik Office 

Publik Office was perhaps one of the most highly-anticipated workspace projects in Ho Chi Minh City. A collaboration between various creatives from a few different countries, this design-forward space allows its visitors and workers to fill the rooms with their own ideas. Encouraging all people from all places, this is truly a creative space with a simple design that is both true to the emerging entrepreneurial scene in the big cities of Vietnam and the original ideas of the Publik creators. 

After research into Berlin’s established co-working scene, Publik Office has tried to bring that same warmth and play into their space here in Ho Chi Minh City. If you are a designer, appreciative of little to no decoration, or you thrive in the clean lines of modern design, this is your co-working space.

Here you can expect the usual amenities with a little flair, such as the concierge services and equipment rental. There are private offices available, Air Desks, private conference rooms, a seminar space, and even a photo studio. Not only is the interior an interesting architectural statement, but this same creativity is featured inside for your inspiration.

Why Choose A Co-workplace In Ho Chi Minh City?

Ho Chi Minh City attracts more expats than any other city in Vietnam. This also means:

1. Full Access to Office Stationery

• Hight-Speed Internet
• Guest Reception
• Printer & Scanner Availability
• 24/7 Secure Access
• Coffee Tea and Iced Water
• Operation time 9AM – 6Pm Mon-Sat
• Access Events (Weekly & Monthly)
• Access to Community Manager
• Private Phone Booths
• On-Floor Sercurity
• Kitchen &  Microwave
• Lounge Areas Access

2. Neighbor Diversity and a Culture of Collaboration

In the era of Internet of Things, skills quickly become dated and technology evolves significantly every single day. And yet, each of us still only has 24 hours per day like we used to during the Renaissance! How can we speed up to constantly update ourselves, while still having time to take care of our health and relationships? The answer might be “hard-work” and “collaboration”!

And a co-workplace is a perfect environment to stimulate those characteristics.

This space keeps you working while the sense of laziness invades you, because the people around you are all being productive. There is no office pressure. It brings people from many backgrounds together in one place. This means some front-end designers can have a chat with not only back-end developers but also web users at lunch time. A video producer can find it easy to discuss with an SEO executive. And a group of Android developers can share their new findings. You only need to be self disciplined to go to work on time!

3. More Opportunities

The diversity in member background and the sense of sharing bring a lot more job opportunities. Yet, it does not stop there. The industry 4.0 is also the industry of massive creativity, and many inventions stem from a laptop. With ambitious talents teaming up and different sets of skills collaborating, new technological inventions are born more easily.

4. Cost Efficiency

If you are an individual that works only eight hours a day, and you compare the cost per day at a coffee shop and a co-workplace, you might reach a dilemma. Yet, if you look for a work-stimulating environment that you can access 24/7, with all the above-mentioned benefits, a co-workplace proves to be very cost efficient.

Now that you have gone through the most significant co-working spaces in Ho Chi Minh City, pick one that best suits your needs. Some are fancy, some are humble, but they are all very bright and the communities can make your day! We hope you will find yourself the most suitable place to enjoy working in this city.
