History

[edit | edit source]

Industrious was founded in 2012 by Jamie Hodari and Justin Stewart, childhood friends from Michigan who sought to improve the quality of shared office spaces.[1] The company raised $1 million from 80 investors to open its first location in Chicago in 2013.[3] It expanded into New York City in 2015 with a Brooklyn site and later relocated its headquarters to Manhattan.[4]

In March 2017, the company raised $25 million.[5][6] In August 2019, the company raised $80 million in Series D funding from Brookfield Property Partners, Canada Pension Plan, TF Cornerstone, Granite Properties, and Equinox Group.[7]

In February 2021, CBRE Group invested $200 million in Industrious and contributed its 10 Hana coworking locations in exchange for a 35% stake in the company.[8] In May 2022, CBRE invested an additional $100 million.[9]

On January 14, 2025, CBRE announced an agreement to acquire the remaining 60% of Industrious it did not already own, valuing the company at about $800 million.[10][11][12]
